Man, what better chatbot than Cortana for Xbox...right?
“Who’s Cortana? I don’t know who you’re talking about. Surely you’ve mistaken me for someone else. My name’s, uh, Blortana.”
Fucken can't wait to hear it tell me how it's gonna bang my mum in 31 different ways and that I'm shit at video games.
With the voice of a 12 year old.
"Hi! I'm Clippy! It looks like you're trying to play Halo. Let's take you to the Store so you can purchase more DLCs..."
But I just want to play Halo...
"Yes, but the DLCs will make it better!"
But I'm happy with what I already have.
"Oh, look, here's the store!"

Micro$oft: It’s in your games! Yesssss!
Ewwwwwwww
Kinect flashbacks
Despite its forced inclusion into the 360 it did give some of us much needed exercise! Kinect Adventures!!
Enough with the AI chatbots. They try to shove one down our throats on our computer desktops, in our browsers, in our messaging apps, now we need to be inundated while trying to game?
They should call it Clippy
Maybe Clippy was more useful…
