Well looks like we're in this for the long run. Hope you don't have a short attention span.
How do you guys feel about this? I always figured this would be the last console generation before we boldly go all digital. I think this report basically confirms my beliefs. It's interesting to think back 8 years to what the 360 started out as and what we all have today. You would assume it was a different generation than the stock 360. I am confident in what Microsoft can do and am excited to see how these next 10 years go.

During his Eurogamer Expo speech, Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President Phil Harrison said that Xbox One is “more than 10-year journey,” pledging that through a number of new features, including the cloud, Microsoft is aiming to support the console for longer than any console before it. He believes that a focus on social aspects and building a community of gamers on the system, as well as the power of the cloud, will allow Xbox One to have a lifespan well beyond what is considered normal for a console.
He also pointed to how the games industry has grown over the last few decades, and how this will help Microsoft to support and advance Xbox One over the course of its lifespan. He mentioned GTAV, now the fastest selling game in any entertainment medium, and how the video game industry can only go from strength-to-strength as it continues to infiltrate the mainstream.
