Other than the recently confirmed price cut

I agree with pretty much all of them (particularly #2 :-). Why doesn't the fucking Elite have built-in wireless? Really, other than the 120GB HD and black colour, there's no difference anymore

Some of them are retarded, but others have good points.

I think the most important one is #8: Accesory price drop. It's OBSCENE that a hard drive and wireless adapter cost that much. I can buy a USB Wifi adapter for $30, why does the Xbox one cost $100?!?!

I love people who complain about #8 and think Xbox should adopt Blu-Ray. Short of releasing an external drive purely to watch Blu-Ray movies on the Xbox this will never happen. What you're asking is for them to basically come out with the Xbox 3 and not bother branding it as such. Microsoft has said time and time again they will never put anything other than a DVD drive in an Xbox 360.

I also would like to them to ignore #1 to a point... please don't turn Halo into Mario. #2 I still don't see them budging on. Setting aside whether or not it's a smart thing to do, it would be admitting that competition is getting to them. Just make more things ON XBL free for gold members. Hell, give me 500 free points every 2 months or something.
