Microsoft is saying you can't sell your game they are just saying the next purchaser must also pay a royalty fee. I assume the main issue is if someone wants to take their game to friend and play they would have to pay a fee to play the game on the machine, it's a tough call but I would error on he side of caution and require a fee to access the game from another console. |
Microsoft never stood in the way of selling your game, correct, but they are putting more supervision over your ownership like you're a child and "we're watching you". They've tied a game to every account and that takes the fun out of gaming. If your friend wants to play your game, he must have your account on his console, which is ridiculous. This is no longer just about MS this is a gamer rights issue which is being threatened because either MS is out of touch or its us. For the first time in a long time after MS press conference thousands to millions of gamers stood together on the issue. Sure we've calmed down but that doesn't mean we aren't steamed about our rights. Its just that in the moment people use up their energy venting. Youtube is a testament to that. MS has more opportunities to clear to air with gamers, but lets see. Things like this piss off the hacker groups as well, so what happened to Sony this gen could happen to MS next gen if they choose to.
