Tis is actually the 3rd source reporting this.

Actually the most credible is the Microsoft Xbox Support employee yesterday. Where she catagorically said to a question.

"The Xbox One will NOT require a fee for used games. The other reports are wrong."

So great news. Xbox One will have free used games. And it doesnt require a constant internet connection. It only requires a check in once a day. I'll take that kind of DRM checking over Steams anyday of the week. Good Job Microsoft.

Please explain how exactly online check once every day is better than Steam? That used games things is better on Xbox One, though, I'll give you that, but it's still horrible.

Once a game is registered on Steam your screwed. Or at least you were when I used to use it.

Think of DRM. Its eventually gonna happen. I can handle the way Microsoft are choosing to do it. Id rather than than what some sites were reporting awhile ago about no used games or constant connection all the time.

The reality is used games are fine and are NOT charged. And the DRM part is siimply a brief check every 24 hours. Yes you still have to have some type of connection, but at least you could ave te very basic broadband speeds and be ok to play single player. Rather than than the other DRM alternatives.

Seems the best option to keep both the devs and pubs reasonably happy and still be reasonable to the customer.

I dont believe tis will be muc of a deal breaker as it stands.
