Now there is no longer and 24hr check in, and they have limited the used game restrictions to Sony Levels of "it's up to the publishers"

Like to see Sony's next move, as really their main focus has been, "At least we're not Xbox".

I would love it if people stopped bashing the Xbone and move on.

Of course, that would require the execs to stop trying to convince us that their way is the only way to go.

[url=#user_comment_310449]@T[/url]: precisely. But that might just be my perception. As Frasier of Video Games Awesome said "Did I ever mention that the guy who's running XBox right now is the guy who was running Playstation when we all hated it?"

While the Xbone itself deserves it (latest news: MPAA wants Kinect to spy on people watching movies and stop the movie if too many are watching at once. Patent pending and everything.), I feel a little bad for Xbone-tan. Maybe even she doesn't want the stupid DRM?

Let's also remember how the XBOne also screws over troops deployed overseas and near combat situations. Gaming is a bit of a morale booster, and Microsoft's decision is just pushing these customers right towards Sony.

[url=#user_comment_309914]@Ryan[/url] But in the end it is still your choice and if you have reasons for it more power to ya. But for most of us it just won't be the system of choice I don't think. It doesn't hurt that Microsoft is /not/ doing a good pr job.

4) (cont.) still limited to your 'family' unfortunately but with a close group of friends this is a pretty nice feature.

By and large it's features really don't benefit the larger market. Nothing wrong for those who get it, but it may not get much material on it if there's no market to sell to.
Not quite...

3) (cont.) Microsoft still sells everything at full price to date. Steam also has sales that 4 people could own and play the same game for the same price, and not pay a monthly fee, they need more to catch up to it.

4) This is a fairly good feature, not denying that. But at the same time(cont)

2) Even with good Internet services can still go down. And in these cases and it can't phone home in time is it easy to reactivate? What about areas where weather can knock out power?

3) While you can't trade on Steam, Steam adjusts the value of their games and DLC over time. (cont.)

1) Competition is generally good for everyone, means better customer conditions and more choice. They may not be the biggest sellers, true, but it /still/ is better then virtually no competition.

[url=#user_comment_309611]@AckAckAck[/url] 3) So? Still better then Steam you actually CAN trade and lend games. You can also only sell your current used games once. 4)So only 2 can play the same game at once? Still better then EVERY other game system out there. Even current systems where only ONE can play per disk.

[url=#user_comment_309611]@AckAckAck[/url] 1) Why should I give a shit about mom&pop retailers? They account for little to nothing in the industry. 2) those with bad internet are still okay. Those with No internet or shit internet that can't connect once a day are screwed. Maybe they shouldn't get his $500 toy?

Here's bonus:

Don Mattrick, Xbox CEO have these gems:

Regarding backward compatibility:

"If you're backwards compatible, you're really backwards"

offline option:

"fortunately we have a product for people who aren't able to get some form of connectivity, it's called Xbox 360."
almost 11 years ago
In the end you don't own your video games. You just rent it. You know why people love their old consoles? Because they can plug in anytime they want and play again.

Oh and they still impose a lot of cost for updating/patching games ($50,000!) and indie need to beg for a slot from big developers.
Musica

I've never been one much for the Xbox line but I never really cared about it much. But every time you hear more about the release, the worse it gets. It's not even going to be availible in every country at the beginning. Not even in EVERY STATE in the US.

[url=#user_comment_309590]@Ryan[/url]: You can only borrow/give/sell the game once. And he/she need to be in your friend list for at least 30 days. 10 family list can be added to your account. But only 2 can play at the same time. If you use your account on someone else X1 it need to authenticate every 1 hour.

[url=#user_comment_309590]@Ryan[/url]: Really? You can only trade games on select retailers? you just killed mom and pop stores. 24 hours online check? people with bad or no internet is screwed.

It might be old to us, but just imagine - Microsoft knew about and developed the platform for who knows how long prior to us learning.

The forum site I frequent has a few Xbone supporters, I find no point in trying to convince them the PS4 is better. People will like what they will like.
