    having a good security system is great, it’s a necessity that every console needs to prevent the unlicensed games, but, modding needs to be supported, not avoided. The great thing about the xbox 1 was that you could mod it and have tons of fun doing that, you need to have a clear difference between the modding and online games, and the effort should be made to keep the two seperate. Having your own modded private lobby would be a great advancement towards gaming.

    @Yarach Google is rubbish. They exploited Linux kernel to create their operating system and guess what…
    They can’t even make their softwares available for Linux users.
    Try to use their online tools on Linux and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Even that terrible email upload tool on Gmai doesn’t work.
    Absolutely shit.
