We're lucky it's not too late, but if you live in a country that isn't one of the 21 countries where the Xbox One will first launch, you better wait with your purchase/preorder as the console won't work outside of those mentioned countries.

That is false.

Unless they deliberately block IP, which would be stupid.

Are you telling me they will block based on IP address!?

 

  • Requires broadband internet (ISP fees apply), a Microsoft account and an account on Xbox Live in an Xbox One-supported Xbox Live country/region, and 720p or higher HDMI-compatible TV. To receive live TV via broadcast or cable, supported receiver device (television tuner or cable/satellite set top box) with HDMI output and HDMI cable required (all sold separately).

    See that part? You country has to have Xbox Live. Your console can't do the once per 24 hours verification if there is no Xbox Live in your country yet.
