Yes, you can buy used games and, therefore, it's reasonable to conclude that you can sell them too. It was postulated that you would have to pay some...
Cool things you like about Xbox One that no one here wants to talk about
in Microsoft Discussion 9 hours agoSince every thread on VGChartz is preocupied with blasting the same 3 things about Xbox One which don't appeal to the core gaming community, I figured to make a thread where we can talk about things that Xbox One has which are actually appealing. They decided to talk about hardware at their conference, and here are a few things I learned that I find interesting. Feel free to post the stuff you...

Sony's Stocks Skyrocket after Xbox Reveal
in Gaming Discussion 10 hours agoHesAPooka said: disolitude said: HesAPooka said:MS stock also took a hit at the same time.... No it didn't. Its perfectly normal for a stock like Microsofts to be up and down 1% on a daily basis. Anything less than 5% movement isn't a "hit" by any means.
