I'm still interested in the console, and do want it. But I can see why people are complaining about it, well the only reason why they're complaining about it. In all honesty I do hope they fix that registering games thing for people without internet at home. Maybe have it to where you can activate it at the store and the first xbox you play it on can use it whenever.

It's not that I play a lot of used games, not at all. I just don't like these f****** restrictions. If I'm coming home from a 2 month work trip and I can't even play on my game system, I payed hundreds of dollars for, only because somehow my internet is down, that's an issue.
Or on a game night with buddies we can't play a game, a friend brings over...common

Yes.

I was planning on a day 1 purchase and even though of my 40 or so xbox360 games, only 2 or 3 are second hand. I don't agree with this DRM bullshit on general principal.

I will now be getting a PS4 on launch and a WiiU when Zelda drops.

Microsoft can eat a dick.

I'm not impacted by any of the news, nor do I believe the policies are set in stone, so nothing would impact my buying decisions.

I buy my software new (I've bought one used title only because Microsoft didn't have it available -- until recently -- On Demand), and I have invested in a digital library.  I don't sell my software, nor do I rent.  Therefore this won't impact me.

This reminds me of when  the gold subscription price went up worldwide IIRC. When I used to live in Mexico, the price was around 500(or 600? don't remember) pesos for one year of xbox live gold. The price went up in the US because of all the services being added for them whici IIRC it was one reason for the price to up(which I didn't like that to begin with because those were not gaming features), but the price also went up in Mexico. Xbox live in Mexico didn't(and still doesn't I guess) even have half the features that xbox live US had, but still it went up to 600 pesos(700 if it was 600).

Basically,  xbox live MX gold didn't have ESPN or things like that which the US had and still the price went up.

Will get all the systems eventually as I always do.

I'm not really sure what the issue is. My understanding is it works just like PC games do the only difference is you can actually sale your games second hand.

The only one account thing is BS as the console can have more than one account.

TBH that one feature would be a reason to buy the xbox to me. I hate swapping discs out. I still mainly game on PC for this reason but the Wii U has been changing that with the ability to install DL titles. I wish I could put retail discs in the system and install them so I never have to swap a disc out.

What I am interested in hearing is since the games have DRM, cant be pirated, shared, etc. Developers should be lowering the price of software to compensate for the extra money they make but that will never happen.

I am no Xbox fan, but I am not here to troll. I am really interested in the exclusive titles. I am really courious to see what MS can lift out of the ground

And to be honest I really think that Sony has not that many really good first party studios.

Makes no difference to me, i don't buy or sell used and all my stuff is connected all the time.

Yes, but if they can somehow pull off the ability to trade digital titles, you can colour me interested again. I kind of reconciled myself with the thought of being unable to sell my games after I committed to buying a PC anyway.
