Could MS Be Learning From Us?
« on: January 23, 2005, 10:42:00 PM »

I'm not sure where to have placed this thread, but i was just curious on a couple of things.
-With all the new discoveries and advancements M$ has taken upon modded xbox's, mainly with their use on LIVE, couldn't it be a flaw on our part for "revealing" too much of our knowledge and in turn only hurting ourselves?
-I'm sure that with all the money M$ has, they have some sort of team or personel searching and reporting to them their latest takes on the revolution that modding has expanded to. With that as a possibility could Xbox-Scene possibly (i highly doubt it for its difficulty) "improve" what and who make the big breaks and who sees it etc.

Its just food for thought. I'm a die-hard fan of this site and all its entirety and would just hate to see all the hard work and time people put into these ideas lie in the hands of M$ to only screw us in the end.

What are your thoughts, questions, comments ?

MS would learn it all one way or another. It's called free information. I figure a lot of their new stuff comes out of a desire to imitate what's being done in the homebrew scene. We hurt them far more than they hurt us.
