We was just talking about the whole always-online thing. I'm not sure why you're trying to change the subject. But, if you buy a physical retail copy of a new PC game, you can add it to your digital library on both "Steam" and "Origin". PC gamers don't care about buy/sell used games because you can get games DIRT CHEAP (under $10, even under $5) if you wait around on slickdeals.net, cheapassgamer.com, or even on "Steam" for them go on sell.

We are talking about the idea of "always online" in general.

People are all over the Internet protesting it but most people are "always online" anyway.

In my opinion it doesn't make sense to resist "always online" and the benefits it brings, just for the sake of being outraged. Some people may really not be able to get an Xbox One and that sucks, but most of the people complaining can and will buy one. It's pure nonsense if you ask me.

As for your point about steam. Sure there are deals to find. And Xbox one has a built in "deal". All you need is one other "family" member to share with and ALL games are half off. Sounds like a good deal to me. And if/when your finished with the games you can still trade them in and get more money back. If you already have the Internet, I don't see why this doesn't sound like an exciting proposition.

Your laptop is damn there usless without an Internet signal. Same goes for the xbox1.

And I'm not saying you should have no problem with it. I'm saying if you know you have not gone a day without the Internet in a long time then why would you forgo the benefits of an "always online" system?

My laptop has a couple games to pass by the idle time till i get back connected. The Xbox is a GAME SYSTEM. Should be no reason to not be able to play in the absence of internet if the game is not built around "always online"

The Xbox is an ONLINE gaming system. The reason it is not able to play games in the absence of an Internet connection is due to the benefits it gives by being connected. There is no way to bring the benefits of digital gaming to the disc based/retail system without requiring an Internet connection.

Think about what you like most about digital games, then think about what you like about physical games. Xbox one brings all those things together regardless of which type of media you choose. All you have to do is have an Internet connection. Sounds good to me:win:

I played a little of the PC version. If more people are playing it I might give it another shot.
