Cause that's the competition. Sharing the game is cool.but if my lil brother rhat lives with me cant play online with my game...its kinda stupid

uhh they fixed that. all you need is ONE xbox live account on your xbox one. you dont need one for each profile. so your lil bro can play online as well but still under his name using the gold live you purchased for the entire box and anyone who has a xbox profile on the box in your house.

all digital on a console means DRM. it basically means you buy a game and are pretty much stuck with it. nobody really wants that on a console. a select few maybe but people want to have flexibility when it comes to game ownership.

Microsoft gambled wrong. its still not too late for them to stop this. they won't have the market share to make it work and everybody that doesn't like it will just go to their direct competitor.

its like Windows 8 in many ways. the general public doesn't want a tablet OS on their desktop and Microsoft pushed it out anyway and its flopping. sure they're half adding the start button back in but they're knee deep in a disaster still.

the Xbox One is a disaster that can still be avoided. sure it would be embarrassing but i'd rather be embarrassed and right then proud and wrong.
I guess Microsoft would rather be embarrassed and right than proud and wrong too.

Long video but Max covers many concerns people have with the XBOX One. Since he will get the XBOX One and a PS4, he's not a fanboy - just a fan of gaming.

Here it is:
An internet connection will not be required to play offline Xbox One games – After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again. There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox 360.

Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today – There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360.

In addition to buying a disc from a retailer, you can also download games from Xbox Live on day of release. If you choose to download your games, you will be able to play them offline just like you do today. Xbox One games will be playable on any Xbox One console -- there will be no regional restrictions.

These changes will impact some of the scenarios we previously announced for Xbox One. The sharing of games will work as it does today, you will simply share the disc. Downloaded titles cannot be shared or resold. Also, similar to today, playing disc based games will require that the disc be in the tray.

We appreciate your passion, support and willingness to challenge the assumptions of digital licensing and connectivity. While we believe that the majority of people will play games online and access the cloud for both games and entertainment, we will give consumers the choice of both physical and digital content. We have listened and we have heard loud and clear from your feedback that you want the best of both worlds.

Thank you again for your candid feedback. Our team remains committed to listening, taking feedback and delivering a great product for you later this year.

I believe 2 things happened. Gamestop stopped taking Xbox Dung preorders and Microsoft saw they were about to end their console division due to the preorder tallies on the internet. We've got a true console war now :blessed: O the games Sony is going to produce because of this. :lawd:

PS4 so powerful even Xbox Dung was FORCED to lean BACK!


Now watch all the xbots act like it didnt make a difference to them. :laff: o bots. :laff:

Your Feedback Matters – Update on Xbox One
Don Mattrick, President, Interactive Entertainment Business
posted June 19, 2013 at 2:00 PM

Last week at E3, the excitement, creativity and future of our industry was on display for a global audience.

For us, the future comes in the form of Xbox One, a system designed to be the best place to play games this year and for many years to come. As is our heritage with Xbox, we designed a system that could take full advantage of advances in technology in order to deliver a breakthrough in game play and entertainment. We imagined a new set of benefits such as easier roaming, family sharing, and new ways to try and buy games. We believe in the benefits of a connected, digital future.

Since unveiling our plans for Xbox One, my team and I have heard directly from many of you, read your comments and listened to your feedback. I would like to take the opportunity today to thank you for your assistance in helping us to reshape the future of Xbox One.

You told us how much you loved the flexibility you have today with games delivered on disc. The ability to lend, share, and resell these games at your discretion is of incredible importance to you. Also important to you is the freedom to play offline, for any length of time, anywhere in the world.

So, today I am announcing the following changes to Xbox One and how you can play, share, lend, and resell your games exactly as you do today on Xbox 360. Here is what that means:

An internet connection will not be required to play offline Xbox One games – After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again. There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox 360.

Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today – There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360.

In addition to buying a disc from a retailer, you can also download games from Xbox Live on day of release. If you choose to download your games, you will be able to play them offline just like you do today. Xbox One games will be playable on any Xbox One console -- there will be no regional restrictions.

These changes will impact some of the scenarios we previously announced for Xbox One. The sharing of games will work as it does today, you will simply share the disc. Downloaded titles cannot be shared or resold. Also, similar to today, playing disc based games will require that the disc be in the tray.

We appreciate your passion, support and willingness to challenge the assumptions of digital licensing and connectivity. While we believe that the majority of people will play games online and access the cloud for both games and entertainment, we will give consumers the choice of both physical and digital content. We have listened and we have heard loud and clear from your feedback that you want the best of both worlds.

Thank you again for your candid feedback. Our team remains committed to listening, taking feedback and delivering a great product for you later this year.
