Let me put this into a metaphor for you:
Say there are only 3 types of people in the world, and they each wear a different color shirt. One type wears green, the other wears blue, and the last type wears both (just follow along, the last one doesn't actually matter too much, as they get the best of both worlds, they just spend a LOT of extra money on both styles of shirts). Now, it doesn't really matter who's who, as it's just a clothing choice.
However, say you work for a restaurant that started out selling food to everyone, but the restaurant got bought out by a company that said "You will no longer sell food to those who wear blue shirts, only to those who wear green." After the transition, you restaurant comes up with a recipe that ends up being one of the best ever created. Everyone wearing green shirts is going to be ecstatic, while those wearing blue won't be able to enjoy it.
Fast forward a 10 years, and your restaurant new recipe has been better than anyone could have ever dreamed about. Now, your managers find a way to get control back in their own restaurant, and leave the former owners behind. They still have the makings of that original recipe, but they want to make it better and different, something new. Remember, this is a business after all, and you know those who have eaten with you before (green shirts) will continue to eat at the restaurant. But how do you draw in the blue shirt wearers who have never had a taste of the food? You offer free samples. Put a big sign out front that says "Welcome all those who wear blue! Come try our new menu, free sample included, and you can even try our new recipe first!" It's a good business tactic. Bring in new customers and offer them an incentive. Those who have eaten at your restaurant before know how good the food can be, and most will stick with it. Others may switch shirts just to get a taste of the new food first, but in the end, everyone makes out the same.
TL:DR
Moral of the story: Dude, chill. We all get it in the end.
[spoiler]I'm going to copy and paste this into every post I see about people complaining that PS is getting shit earlier than XB. I've been a 'green shirt' guy much more so than a 'blue shirt', and i'm actually happy Bungie is welcoming their potential new fan base with open arms, as do I.[/spoiler]

Are they just there for show or am i missing something?

由Rex084編輯: 2/5/2014 10:16:56 PMLol, I know the feeling. I wrote this at work, right before my lunch break. They just opened up a new Japanese sushi and take away place right next to my job. I took my inspiration from there. It's called Sarku: Teriyaki and Sushi Express. It's pretty good stuff.

^_^ *bows* Thank you! I'm just sick and tired of these types of threads popping up. People just need to understand it's a business tactic, and a great one at that. As an XBox fan, I'm super excited to see Bungie (working with Activision, of course) working hard to welcome their new potential customer base with incentives. It's not like those who are sticking with XB are getting the shaft or anything.
