Exactly this! +1

Thats like a big fuck you to rural areas and developing countries. I guess MS really only cares about the US.

Any word on BC or used games?

Blurring the lines even further between PC and console gaming.

@superchunk: You really think Nintendo would go down this route as well?

I don't buy used games but I do have Gamefly so I either cancel my Gamefly service or not purchase Xbox One or PS4 (If PS4 does it). 

This and you get massive price cuts on newer games aswell. Not to mention the developer packs that give you hundreds of bucks worth of games forless then $100, sometimes even $50 or lower.

Edit: with xbox 1 i thought you meant the first xbox...

I can also start my steam games without internet connection btw.

I'm a bit confused about this.

It sounds to me like you put your game in the Xbox 1, you sync that copy to the Microsoft server and thus that copy can't be played on any other Xbox console.

That dosen't sound too bad, because it looks like a way of fighting against piracy. Which I do think is needed because the developers loose out on piracy.

I do agree with ways of combating piracy, but I don't agree with an always online connection to be able to play a single player game. Maybe Microsoft can meet their consumers half way on this issue?

Ughhhh this is annoying. I never buy used games BUT I do sell them when I'm done with them to buy more games... How does a company have any right to do this crap?

people in this thread are on their knees hoping and praying that Sony does this along with MS

Lmao

Misery loves company XD
