There is this big boiling noise somewhere on the internet over the topic of Microsoft censoring it's MSN China offerings. I could, right now, send a flurry of links on it your way - but A) you've probably already seen them and B) I'm having a bit of a caffiene crash right now. Gamepolitics.com is asking gamers to boycott the XBox 360 to show Microsoft how we do things in the good old U S of A.
Now I first stumbled on gamepolitics.com with the whole Demuzio affair and completely respect the kind of work they're trying to do over there. Course, we should point out that Microsoft lost a gigantic bundle of cash on the first XBox and is planning on losing a marginally smaller bundle of cash on the 360. They win out in the end by cross-marketing demographics and writing off a big old loss from their taxes. If you really want to annoy Microsoft, go buy a Macintosh. Not buying a 360 might actually save them money, although it would probably dampen their living room domination plans for a couple of days.
