Squint_Eastwood said: There are so many stories doing the rounds regarding Nextbox that its hard to seperate rumours. Everybody seems to have a different interpretation of what this document means. I havnt read itproperly to be honest so thank you for correcting me. I read a different thread based on this document and they interpretted it as no connection, no game. Its all conjecture at this point. My point on the 2nd hand market was just thinking aloud.

yea, it's entirely possible that one or the other console will have some "features" that are more tailored to the needs of publishers than the users and I see how some of the announced/strongly rumored stuff can be perverted in that direction, but at this point I prefer to be optimistic that there won't be a big change from current business practices
so can someone tell me are these guys usually right, are these details final? only care about always online due to issues i have had but still huge blow for alot of people

Didn't you hear? Skype and a TV tuner are "killer apps" now!
My main problem with stuff in the XDK is the whole....Kinect is required to function thing. My guess (and there have been rumors) that K2.0 will be built into the system somehow so just covering it with a towel or whatever doesn't seem like the best idea. If it isn't built in, and doesn't HAVE to be used, i'll just tuck it away but still have it plugged in. Thing is, since everyone will have Kinect, developers might feel obligated to make use of it in some capacity. Much like we saw with the Wii and all of the horrible waggle games. Now it will be wiggle games.
Microsoft is going to have to bring some serious gaming heat at the reveal/E3 in order for me to get excited about the neXtBox. MS's clear strategy is really driving me away from the Xbox. I haven't turned my 360 on since early Feb...it bores me and the ads are obscene. My Wii U has gotten more action than my PS3 or 360 in the past month, and I hadn't gotten any new games for it until today. I was having trouble getting into Ni No Kuni, but I at least still played my PS3.
Sadly, MS is stupid enough to try some of the things mentioned in the thread...not saying they absolutely will.....but I wouldn't put it past them to try and spin it to sound like a good thing.

What do you mean with "final"? It is a leak of unknown date. You have to read the text on your own and then you can try to infer from it what you want, as all ppl did in this thread. That doesn't neccessarily mean you or others are right.

There, fixed your attempt at a joke.
Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

ok just came back from work and was to lazy to read fully, here's hoping for the best then
The usual suspects again turning this rumour ( with the second thread about in two days) to a fact so deep inside they can be happy because they hope the nextbox will fail. Very adult
