Confirmed: Xbox One No Longer Requires Online Connection, Supports Used Games

Well, you would have been installing the games from the disc anyway so it's going to take up the same amount of space.

It won't take up the same amount of TIME.

My prediction is probably went down. They waited to see if pre-orders sold out over the weekend...they didn't so they had no choice but to reverse.

Monday morning probably went something like this...
Board - So how are the XBOX One pre-orders doing?
Mattrick -
Board -

Then they put in a plan to work it all out. This is all simple nonsense that I go back and forth with you guys on here. I can't believe the few who really thought all of that was going to fly.

I don't know if MS mentioned this, but Sony said something like, people will be able to start playing games while they're still downloading.

Prolly the same shyt will happen on the One.

It's hilarious all of the people in here like, "I didn't care either way"...

Good thing you don't run MS cause you're clearly in the minority when it comes to this. They wouldn't be changing it if everybody didn't care.

Microsoft changing Xbox One policies based on 'feedback from the Xbox community' | Polygon

Some people also have caps and 87gigs can be months worth on some plans.

Now fix the DDR3 problem and we are talking.

The kinect will still continue to snitch on you, correct?

you can turn it offthese nikkaz really did a poor job of communicating the features to consumers.

I guess this proves that when dealing with capitalists you have to hit them where it hurts. They are slaves to money so when you hurt that, you can make change. Good job Xbots but lets give credit to Sony for paving the way to greatness with that PS4.


Microsoft still hasnt announced though.

 

[GoldenGlove]

Not neccessarily. 24hr disc check can still be in place for those who install there games. And you can have it always connected still so there isn't a need to remove the ability to have a discless experience. We'll see, I seriously hope not because I want that. I actually play games and the convience of not having to switch between 2K/Madden/COD/Titanfall/Forza/KillerInstinct by just saying "Xbox, game"

Gimmie that

Please, for the love of all that is holy... SHUT THE FUKK UP
You have no idea how the system works, what makes it special. If you want a PS4 go that, if you want a console for the future?
Xbox One is your man. Kinect mandatory and you'll love it. Thats it, deal with it. Stop trying to turn the xbox into a ps4. Then you praise the ps3/4 everytime it adds a new xbox feature Without Kinect 2.0 Xbox One would be just another gaming system. Its MUCH more than that now

@ I don't know how the system works. I know how it doesn't work? Without that Kinect attached to it.

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

Dat backpedel

100 cheaper.. check
more powerful system....check
no kinect looking at wifeys wild ass... check

Good thing I'm not one of those people.

And why the fukk are you using 87GBs as an example?



How many games are 87GBs in size?

 

[Liquid]

My next prediction is that the Pre-Orders sell out by tonight or tomorrow.

Remove Kinnect
Give me that bytch for $399
The only way ill use kin3ct is if Xbox forces me to
