VGKing said: We all know what this thread will end up like so let's get it over with. There's a fee to play used games. That alone is a game changer and will make many people go with a PS4. It's very anti-consumer and no wonder EA dropped online passes, they're going with offline passes now. |
Are you certain that Sony won't implement the same ####?
And I'm not so sure it'll be a big dealbreaker in their largest market. Wait and see how it'll work out i guess.

I've actually changed my stance on this issue, this could be a HUGE positive as it would allow me to buy a game, install it to my console and then sell it off to Gamestop. It's a win for consumers, Gamestop and Microsoft. This is pure genius.
I'm assuming Gamestop will still accept trade-ins though. This new system will probably severely lower the market value of used Xbox One games. Here's hoping the fee is only about $10-$15.

Has it been confirmed that you can play games without the disc?
|
I don't know I thought I heard someone say it. Probably too good to be true. I got hyped up for nothing :(

Yes it has been confirmed (here by MS people).

I love that option... My kids are always destroying my game discs.
Also rumors are that for gold family, you will be able to install it and play it with all family accounts from different consoles (I hope this is also true)
