Region locking confirmed, unsurprisingly.

It'll probably launch in Spring 2014 there. Why waste inventory at launch in a region where they struggle severely?

In case it wasn't set in stone already. Microsoft didn't listen.

License terms for individual games?

I would assume this means publishers locking their own games down to no trading/lending etc...?

Because it distorts relationship with Japan's devs and publishers.

Suikoguy · Jun 11, 2013

The lack of Japan in that list does explain the E3 conference a bit.

360's none existent market share there did not do anything of the sort, so I think you are thinking with weird gamer perspective.

Japanese game devs and pubs know where the bread is buttered. It's about the business, not some wacky relationship creed that exists in gamers' heads.

Cartman86 · Jun 11, 2013

A lot of these things are standard no? Typical legal wording.

TheHater · Jun 11, 2013

how the hell is the Xbox one $500? guess you have to pay for than NFL deal somehow

jamesinclair · Jun 11, 2013

Requires 720p or higher HDMI-compatible TV.

This is new isnt it?

If you have an HDTV, but no HDMI....

Youre fucked.

And no hooking up at the cabin or little johnies room.

Also, is the Caribbean blocked out as well?

Edit: No Portugal? Lols

GnarkillZA · Jun 11, 2013

No launch in South Africa really bums me out.:\

netBuff · Jun 11, 2013

Is that list of countries supposed to be a joke (I know everyone just creates accounts in other regions, but still pretty strange in this new world of online-only consoles)?

shinra-bansho · Jun 11, 2013

Only Western countries...

Some games not transferable and have no resale value; restrictions on games usage apply.

Curious what the latter means...

starmud · Jun 11, 2013

i wonder when it will hit japan... i mean, its not like this thing would do well at all... its debatable how well ps4 or wiiu will do. a extremely limited launch?

Crazypanda_85 · Jun 11, 2013

I think that is referring to the fact that most games can't be gifted more than once.

I don't know, it already refers to transferability, it says game "usage," which to me would imply the actual using (playing) of the game.

IMBored · Jun 11, 2013

No Portugal.
As if my decision not to buy the Xbone wasn't already made. This and 499, well done MS.

Thats what you getting for not joining the euro.

Soooo, Killer Instinct has purchasable characters? DLC, or is the game F2P?

Wait wait wait

Does this mean if I buy a game from the UK it won't play on my Belgian account? Fuck that, if so.

BadWolf · Jun 11, 2013

So with X1 not caring about Japan and Japanese devs not caring about the WiiU... wonder if the PS4 will end up with full dev support from that region.

Windom Earle · Jun 11, 2013

So is the lack of JP support due to the hardware yield problems or a general strategic decision?

Also region locking comes as no surprise.

Andrefpvs · Jun 11, 2013

Amazing that they're not yet including some countries that had X360 at launch. What a clusterfuck this has been so far.

Tamanon · Jun 11, 2013

Most likely a strategic decision. Nobody buys 360s there, and the used game market is pretty huge, so the One might sell at an even lower rate.

tafer · Jun 11, 2013

Most of Latinamerica isn't on that list... incredible.

Memento_Mori15 · Jun 11, 2013

What about the countries in Asia?

I'm concerned Sony won't be launching there in 2013. MS has given up completely on Japan but Sony could still get a lot of JRPGs and stuff if they made a push there.

Late 2014 launch. There's a thread on it somewhere.

Maybe related to the 24 hour check? As in if you're offline for over 24 hours you can't use your games?

lol. Funny to see it written in black & white like that.

No thanks Microsoft.

border · Jun 11, 2013

Damn, that's a lot of fine print.

"Requires internet connection."

"Some games may have no resale value."

"May require sale of your soul to a demonic entity."

malfcn · Jun 11, 2013

What about used consoles?

Josman · Jun 11, 2013

Wait wat, so let me get this straight, If you don't live in any of those countries listed, you can't activate/tie games to your account and play them?

Wow, that's a big F.U. to the rest of the world, I'm from Mexico so no worries there, but I have friends from lots of countries that aren't listed there. And also, no Japan? I suppose sooner or later but it's gonna be DoA there and japanese devs will make a lot more games for the PS4.

does that mean that i cant buy games from austria or the uk ?
germany is known for banning violent games so that would be a deal breaker for me ...

Probably waiting for their exclusive JP games to be ready.

Phreaker · Jun 11, 2013

I thought it was interesting that Amazon is currently out of the "Day One" systems. I pre-ordered, but may cancel and just get a PS4.

They're not in 2013. They picked the 2 strongest regions to launch first in. Japan is hand held land now.

Does it come with complimentary lube to make it slightly more comfortable when Don Mattrick anally rapes me?
