This is horrible. Those features are what made me want it. now its just a weak system with no innovation.

If this is true, all the xbots who were defending always-online & DRM, just took an L.

 

[Spliff]

I hope XBO doesn't revert back to requiring discs to play games

...or axe the family share feature

 

[Mr. Somebody]

They're probably just seeing if this news causes an increase in Preorders and then they can make a decision from there, a demonic decision.

Hopefully they remove it for the sake of their business. Thank you Sony for your revolutionary choices that force other consoles to Lean back, for the sake of friends, friends.

Buy the games digitally if you want to share them.

This has been going on for the whole generation on PSN

Welcome to 2013

Great news, and I'm not surprised at all.

Now we can watch the Xbots flip flop and act as if they weren't hyping up all the "pros" to where MS was taking the One.

Bruh that family share...is going to be the shyt

It is true, its spreading all over now.

 

[Julius Skrrvin]

Are they doing a reversal on the $100 gap? Because that's really the only thing that matters.

This.

 

[Mr. Somebody]

Surprising considering spencer was just defending drm. Wont believe till MS says it themselves.

 

[GoldenGlove]

So now I guess that dumbass Meach won't come into every One/PS4 with the canned reply...

"At least you can play the PS4 in Syria and not be online"

 

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

I thought you nikkas were fine with MS's current xboxone policies?

I am and was. shyt never bothered me nor will it in the future when it becomes mandatory.
