It would seem that big M have decided to take things seriously and get rid of the stupid online requirements and trade-in restrictions of the Xbox one.

Maybe they did the math and realized what a mistake it could be. Maybe they could call it the Xbox 180.

I'm starting to take an interest in the system now that it seems to be aimed at people like me. But I still think it's a bit early to launch the next gen systems - there's still fun to be had with the current gen.

It will be interesting to see SONY's reaction to this since they seemed to be winning over a lot of people annoyed with M's choices. Now the playing field has been levelled off a bit..
