Mess as in "a bunch of", not "disaster". Otherwise, I really don't care
what "special" BS MS gets to use, but no one else does, because everyone
added all the features to the cards/drivers, in a way that is unusable
to anyone that doesn't want to spend $2,000+ upgrading everything from
hardware and memory, to the OS, to run stuff it would be cheaper to buy
an XBox 360 to play.. Yeah, I "prefer" the changeability you get from a
PC platform, which is locked down on consoles, but not at the "cost" of
doing it, especially when nearly every dang thing for PC now is using
something like Steam, which defeats the whole fracking point of running
without internet, if you need to, and I am stuck with an OS I don't need
for "anything else" to do it.
