If I'm reading that digital re-selling part right, this is for both XB1 AND PS4? This sorta makes me thinking both systems will have it:



Or am I just reading that completely wrong?

The way I'm reading it is that the digital marketplace will be a separate charge ala Xbox Live/PSN that will allow you access to the service. It sounds weird to not simply say "Digital marketplace available with Xbox Live Gold account." and bring PSN to the mix. I may be wrong though.
 
I knew as soon as I saw "helo" on NeoGAFNewThread that some shit was about to go down. Man, I feel bad for MS if they really are launching post-15th.

Why? You think a couple of days will really make a difference. The Xbone will sell out no matter what day it launches.

This quote is from a market research survey; you can tell by the way it's phrased. Just because it's in one doesn't mean it'll come to fruition, but yes, this is gauging people's reaction to the idea for both consoles.
Maybe it is a document outline from a publisher or something that talks about the trade in system on both platforms? Make sure that there is parity? Not sure...
Ah, I see.
Thanks, guys :)

Nice, I wonder how much blood will be spilled in the streets. Modern Warfare will launch alone on PC then? Weird.

If the stuff about buy/sell/trading pre-owned digital content is based on a survey as Wario64 said all that stuff could just be hypothetical and shouldn't really be taken necessarily as official MS policy.

So once more for emphasis:

TRANSLATION:



It's amazing how after all the problems, now Microsoft is getting around to articulating a digital service that sounds appealing :p

you should probably re-read that. Seems like it is not gonna happen on Xbox one.

No Xbone on Nov 8th? Buttocks is like the Angel of Xbone's bad news.

Release dates are hardly important.

Being able to resell digital titles?

Here I was thinking I'd go ahead and cancel my Xbox One preorder and just buy a gaming laptop. This is the hugest of news. We're talking something that might actually make Valve rethink what they're currently doing.

Now I have to think about this again.

why, cboat, do you hate me

Oh, I'm not invested in this the way some people are, it's just that it would help if they could be out first at least. Plus, the meltdowns would be fun to read.

Anyway interesting. Selling Digital games is good, but November 15th or after launch? Man bad for MS that is for sure.

It isn't anything that is implemented. Seems more like a proposition by a survey that is getting feedback.

Otherwise MS and/or Sony would be tooting their horns about that program already.

*re-reads*

No dude, it sounds like it's Xbox One :p

The "OH NOS I ONLY REPORT BAD NEWS FOR XBOX ONE" is Cboat being sarcastic at the critics who say he's some anti-MS leaker.

This makes me wonder if Sony somehow knew about Microsoft wanting to launch November 15th and snatched up the date before they could, forcing them to launch the same day or change their plans. Because everything we've heard is that Sony probably could have launched earlier then the 15th.

Queue the inevitable naysayers.

That "9 year" part ought to prove that while not entirely infallible he is a legit source who is far more reliable than most of those who try to oppose his claims.
 
*antiphish stuf in to make hard for niigerian uktranisn rusian pinces to cal bout acoutn info that no t theirkrirs but if culstoner donestn haven email or ahpnone nubmr asocate with acount, xbone reps wil have pwoetr to tell calller to eff off

Fucking funny.
 
cboat back with that swagger.

Suck on that, reddit jerks!

So, this selling digital games is interesting. Guess they must make $$ with the charging fees. Does this mean that developers don't get their money back when people trade in digitally? Must mean more $$ for just Sony/MS.

Also, is One launching after PS4 after all?
 

alr1ght

bish gets all the credit :)
The boat's info would indicate it's coming after November 15. You don't train people to use software on the day of the launch.

It's to late for my brain to understand this.
 
Interesting that MS is going to have the digital user marketplace. That's a pretty big deal assuming most of the big titles are available digitally.
Aren't all games available digitally? For PS4 as well?

That's the impressions I've been under. Still don't understand the concept of "pre-owned" digital games though.

-You will have the ability to buy pre-owned digital versions of games through the online marketplace.
