Heh, I was told that they would never do that, and Gamestop saying it was a hot console was pretty much confirmation of that.

 

[CengizMan]

This will be a problem

Spoiler

. Once it has games.

 

[Zombie James]

Forced Kinect was a deal-breaker for me, this cements it.

 

[Xater]

Yeah no longer what they show at E3 I no longer care. Bullshit.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

 

[codhand]

hmm not sure if a deal breaker, but comes awful close

 

[Hoo-doo]

Damn.

 

[nib95]

No Xbox One for me!

 

[Nemesis121]

MS done fucked up.....what a stupid company enjoy last place you won't even beat Wii U and they have no games...

 

[Night_Trekker]

Ahahahahaha

 

[Violater]

Has it been confirmed that the same wont happen on PS4?

 

[GoddyofAus]

Just laughable stuff. You couldn't imagine more ways for MS to put themselves on the backfoot. Sony has so much momentum right now, it's not even funny.

Q: Will Xbox One allow players to trade in, purchase and play pre-owned games?
A: We are designing Xbox One to enable customers to trade in and resell games. We’ll have more details to share later.

no it doesnt

http://news.xbox.com/2013/05/qa

i.e. make a secondary payment to microsoft atop buying the used game.

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Still want

 

[TheFeedingHand]

fuck off, im done with videogames.

 

[gamergirly]

Guess the rumors were true....

 

[The_Monk]

Just a side note but with all these installs 500GB seems very short, right fellow GAFfers?

 

[sweetvar26]

Oh shit, this is huge guys!

 

[encephalon]

Sony had better not pull the same.

 

[Fistwell]

Well then surely the games come at a discount. Surely. Right? .... Riiight?!?!

 

[Fergie]

Worst fears confirmed. Haven't kept up with gaming news but is Sony doing similar?

 

[FYC]

Yeah, deal breaker for me.

Sorry.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Sony just won this shit free. That conference was beyond shit....farrrrr beyond and now this. The next console war is already over, Sony won and they didn't even need to show the damn console itself.

Also, the conference was so bad, Sony's stock has been going up rapidly. MS shit the bed something fierce.

 

[MikeE21286]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccckkk this


#XboxReveal was pretty weak. Only interesting thing was the OS swtiching stuff which PS4 approximates basically.

I'm out on this as of right now. Line's drawn in my purchasing decision.

 

[ironcreed]

Pay a fee to play used games on your VCR. I'm done with Microsoft.

 

[Resilient]

Go fuck yourself. After that shitty conference and now this. Just wow. Hand it to Sony and call it a day. Ya blew it Microsoft.

 

[kayos90]

Interesting. Explains Online Pass negation.

 

[sechsterangriff]

This indirectly confirms that your console has to be online once to start the game no? How can they validate the Off-line pass otherwise? Some tricky physical disc DRM?

 

[GulAtiCa]

great... Can't believe they actually went through with this horrible idea.

 

[SirIgbyCeaser]

who gets the money? Microsoft or developers?

Every used xbox game is basically 10 dollar fee. And you're paying xbox live ontop of that.

This console is a joke. Have fun xbox fans.

 

[mr stroke]

So if PS4 does this aswel then GameFly and Gamestop are toast?

 

[TwEE-N-Toast]

Wow, what a stinker. I'll be passing on any console that does this.

 

[NewFresh]

Well there it is.

 

[LyleLanley]

Wait, but you can still use it on the second console if you keep the disc in there? That doesn't sound too bad.

 

[Baby Milo]

it's been fun MS

bye

 

[Marcel]

AWAKEN MY SONY MASTERS

 

[kingkitty]

go to hell

completely bonkers.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

I'm as confused as the GiantBomb guys. Wow.

 

[dragonflys545]

Booom. There goes the dynamite. GG!

 

[Nakazato]

welp

 

[Rewrite]

Fuck that.

 

[sixghost]

holy shit I'm dying

 

[Chû Totoro]

Game Over.

 

[Dicer]

Survey says "X"

no it doesnt

http://news.xbox.com/2013/05/qa

add this to op this is straight from ms official website

More details to share later, what do you think that means?

 

[mjc]

Sony will institute the exact same policy, just watch.

 

[Kusagari]

So why was Gamestop pumping up this console?

I bet there will be some kind of deals for used games from GameStop.

 

[Flightmare]

I'm out

 

[Papercuts]

...it doesn't say they block it, it's pay to no longer use the disc. They didn't clarify what the deal is just using a disc.
