Creepy and yet amazing. Did someone on GAF make this?



Sony are also rumored to be limiting used game sales: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2013/0007892.html

Blu Ray???The Microsofts disc anti christ is entering the xbox.lol


Hated by the 360 Community for 7 years cause its not needed even if its superior.


Hated?

Multiple disk games on 360 are a vast minority, and there are hardly any mandatory installations, not to mention faster load times then PS3 Bluray.

Since PS3 was literally the only video game machine using bluray, think of it as beta testing it, as it wasnt really necessary this gen. Next gen however the extra file capacity will be necessary, and MS just stole another PS3 exclusive :P



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

I won't mind this shit when my brand new retail disc ships with a download code so I can associate the DL game with my account and still be able to play with the disc game.

By the looks of it, it seems like Xbox and Playstation are more and more becoming EAbox and EAstation.



I dont buy the used game crap. If anything if its true then the fan fallout after its official will make MS change their minds.

You better believe something like that WILL be true sometime, probably not with Orbis/Durango, but in the 9th generation, in 2018-2019, it´ll be far more likely.

So they'll just make playing videogames an XBL Gold perk now? I believe it.

 

No I don't.
