Xbox One: Details on Connectivity, Licensing and Privacy Features
That's what im saying,What clowns fail to realize is that they are actually only renting said games for the next 4-6 years. Once the servers go down, those games YOU purchased will no longer be able to work. People are allowing their brand loyalty to Microsoft to allow them to get ass raped with no fukks given
Also, the fukkery that will ensue when the average consumer calls/complains to Amazon/Various electronics stores claiming their Xbox stopped working after 24 hrs and must be defective
You know how EA always shuts down the servers early? they could just stop letting madden 14 work onces madden 15 comes out
will they? I dunno it's EA nothing is off the table. I can still boot up my OG xbox and play say Psychonauts on it.. but with this tech you can't.... it's that simple really.
If Sony comes through with the same BS....... I'll just stick to my Ps3 and Xbox till I run out of games that interest me
So if i have a Xbox1 and my roommate has a Xbox1 and he has the new Halo, but i don't. He let his brother borrow the disc he can't let me see the disc even though it has already been paid for...
Imagine if you bought a car and only 2 people could drive it and other people had to pay the manufacturer a fee to use it, and it has to check in to your wi-fi every 24 hours to drive....you would NEVER buy something like that.

they can come out with "one final update" that removes the DRM if they so choose. the DRM is just software after all. i'd imagine they'll post the exact date Xbox Live goes out of service for the Xbox One and tell everyone to download and back up their games and remove the DRM through an update.

Microsoft is really testing how far they can fukk the consumer. They obviously have their hopes very high that they can fukk us to oblivion while being in bed with EA. What type of madness is this. They are going to control when and where you decide to play games? You want a Kinect?! Naw, you have to use it now to even turn that POS on. If Sony has any brains at all they will not go down this road. E3 is a couple of days away. You can still your change your mind on this bullshyt Microsoft!! THERE IS STILL TIME!!!
the press conferences begin in under 15 or so hours. its time. Sony will likely sell us out worse than Microsoft did. i'm willing to bet they'll say the publishers can set up their own DRM.
How Ballmer is STILL CEO boggles the mind. Flop after flop for Microsoft; even while tearing down other corporations like Nokia this guy seems immune to ejection.

All Hail Nintendo!! LOL
i love the memes but i don't trust him either. there's a good possibly they're planning the same shyt MS is planning. we'll see but until we learn the specifics of the PS4, i wont get too comfortable.
technically it won't be Sony screwing you it will be Sony telling the publishers they can police themselves. then Sony will kick back and say "hey we didn't tell them to do that, we don't require internet on the box itself so what they do is on them."
don't think for a minute that these publishers are gonna have the Xbox locked down tight all the while open season on Playstation and don't think for a minute Sony is gonna stand up to them and tell them no DRM.
there's a phrase for what Sony is about to and has already said they're gonna pull;
Plausible deniability.

that's what i'm worried about. seems like Sony is about to throw publishers under the bush while implementing the same bullshyt microsoft is getting shyt for.
i'm going to hold off purchasing ps4. if they're shipping eye along w/the console and they have some used game restrictions, i might be done with "next gen" gaming on consoles.
