Can someone please tell me how the Xbox One conference makes PC gaming seem appealing?

I don't know man... I for one don't think the limitations on next gen games buying trading and selling will be as tight as you say they are.

Microsoft really isnt the one pushing game DRM hard here... they want you to buy the console, subscribe to XBL and use their services...Skype, Skydrive, IE, Bing, Windows ported apps...good to go! Them and Sony are mostly implementing DRM for 3rd parties but at the same time the cannot piss off retail.

I personally believe that Microsoft has 5-10 different DRM scenarios in mind which they are testing with retail and publishig partners and once they find the best solution for everyone they will eveal it to us and how it works.

well i hope they come up with something better than what Nsanity posted. 

i think always online is a mistake.  developing markets just can't guarentee to have internet access and as the undertracking here proves developing markets are pretty big.  hell, one of my co-workers doesn't have his xbox hooked up simply because his gaming room is too far from his router to get a signal.

 

i dunno - in all honest i don't have a lot of room to complain.  i think i've said this before i was more or less planning to go full digital next gen anyways.  being able to download from disc instead of the net isn't really a bad deal for me.  but i recognize i'm also the minority (or at least not the vast majority).  i don't know if you spend any time in the vita thread but it gets hijacked every month or so by someone complaining about digital only releases and their personal objection to non physical media.  that discussion has been going on for years now so it's not like this discussion is brand new or anything.

thats a silly argument considering all retail vita games have a digital equivalent, sounds like complaning just to complain.
