Really, Microsoft? You just asked gamers to go through the hassle of updating their Xbox One gamepads in March, yet there's word on NeoGAF
that the next patch -- currently in testing -- will once again bundle
"new controller firmware." Yes, the (hopefully optional) code should fix
connection and headset quality issues that are even more of a pain, but
it's doubtful that Xbox owners
will relish plugging in peripherals a second time to get reliability
that should have been present on day one. At least users can take
comfort in new system features added to the list of coming updates,
including a button to check for future software updates manually and
redeeming codes directly from Xbox Live messages. Let's just hope that
gamepad upgrades are less frequent from here on out.

Lulz.
Seriously, do you ever hear about how Nintendo's hardware nowadays isn't reliable. It's things like these that make one more grateful for NOT having to put up with BS like this. Then again, people are just as stupid for being so willing to put up with stuff like this.
