Xbox One

$499 !?!?

Not surprised but come on!

Anywho I am glad to see XBL Gold members will get 2 free games per month at least since I will be sticking with my 360 until that One is on sale. Also the death to M$ points !!

First 2 free games are Halo 3 and Assassin's Creed 2 believe starting July.

X1 out this November.

Now all Sony has to do is undercut that price by 50 buck,and it's bye bye XBox One.

Basically ya. From what I'm hearing because the Kinect is bundled with the One its price would be higher or its making it seem ok to be $500. But that's my main beef with M$, that something I don't plan to buy games for is required to operate my console. Meanwhile if Sony bundles their camera with its console for $400 that just makes it worse for M$.

I thought Nintendo did the most genius thing when it came to the Wii at launch, the price.

Sony just announced $399 for PS4! Bye bye XBox One!

With every decision Microsoft has made it's almost like they don't want people to buy their console.

So true. During their E3 press conference I was waiting for them to say "gotcha!! everything we have said in the last month was just a big prank"

Just read that Killer Instinct is F2P digital only but only comes with 1 playable character. Jeez I hope M$ doesn't nickel dime that much lol.
That game sucks already I would love to have bought it used just to play all the characters.

So, being ****** on Xbox One means you forfeit licenses to everything on your account -

Good. I love to read the forums and see the pathetic excuses cheaters and hackers use to defend their actions and in turn forfeit membership, points and DLC content.

 

[STDiva]

That's a harsh punishment, but its fitting.

You know if that applying to modded Xboxs that people only want to play copied games ?? Or they still just banning the console itself for that keeping XBL accounts open ?

There are a lot of ways to get ****** on Xbox live, but they mainly consist of being a dick.

But what this implies to me is that because of the way they plan to register games to accounts, a bought disc based game would also be defaulted on and no longer playable. If you wanna play the game again on a new account, you'd have to buy it all over.

Cheating, hacking, modding, selling, spamming, harassing, impersonating staff, modifying consoles (hardware and software) are certainly the most common reasons I read about.

As I understand it, nothing much has changed, the current COC states that if you are ****** for ********* any of the rules you lose content and any live time remaining so this is hardly surprising.

I like it.

That kinda sucks if you have to re buy everything but its a good consequence.

Major Nelson has said this is not the case

Those twitter support people seem to get a few things wrong.
MN also said MGS 5 was an Xbox One exclusive for a minute too but he is their main PR guy.

 

[L3ggy]

MGS 5? A Xbone exclusive? Wouldn't that statement be a little late? The E3 trailer shows PS3, PS4, 360 and Xbone.

M$ to pull complete reversal on DRM policies

•The console no longer has to check in every 24 hours
•All game discs will work on Xbox One as they do on Xbox 360
•An Internet connection is only required when initially setting up the console
•All downloaded games will function the same when online or offline
•No additional restrictions on trading games or loaning discs

We will see if true...
