Thought this might deserve a new thread it's the only way that the 2 facts known that games can be played without disk and that games can be shared can be true...what do you think?

 

1. If not connected to Internet at all Xbox One will not play Game until activated.

2. If connected to internet Xbox One will play games without disk in drive after being activated.

3. If you want to share your game with a friend you will have to deactivate the game on your Xbox One so it won't play again without being activated again. When doing so you will receive a deactivation code which will activate it on another Xbox One. This could easily be checked instore etc.

4. Rentals/Used games will be possible because when returning used game, rental/shop will insist on deactivation code to prove deactivation with returned disk.

5. Buying used will mean game will come with activation code that would be the "return code" upon deactivation.

 

This is the only way this could logically work so that the statements of shared games being possible could work. There is no other way, on a fundamental level....maybe not exactly like this near enough.
