1. Debatable
2. Personal opinion
3. If you live in the US maybe, I wouldn't know.
4. I wouldn't know, don't watch sport.

Against:

- Severely restrict game ownership, yet still pay $60 for new releases.
- 24h/1h checkins, internet required for game installs, doesn't work when you take the console off-line.
- Mandatory always kinected, privacy concerns and more difficult to move the console between locations.

Game sharing sounds nice but, unlike 2nd hand sales and license transfers, is directly against eulas:

Unless expressly authorized by EA, you are prohibited from making a copy of the Software available on a network where it could be used by multiple users. You are prohibited from making the Software available over a network where it could be downloaded by multiple users.

So it remains to be seen how exactly this will work out with publishers.

Far from the best total package.

It's silly to boycott something at this point. We don't really know how it's all going to pan out yet, there's some bad clouds in the sky but to say "I won't buy an Xbox One" at this point is just like putting blinkers on.

1. I'm defo getting a PS4 provided current info is accurate.
2. I'm defo waiting to see how the DRM stuff works on the Xbox One before deciding one way or the other.

much more level headed way of thinking :D imo.

Well, what I am doing is to every gamer or potencial buyer of the XBone I am asking them if that is what they really want.

Not been able to buy used games, not been able to exchange games with friends, paying for kinect when you really do not care about it, being under strict surveillance, every 24hours or less, maybe through a camera and microphone, not really having your games but paying same price as the physical copy of the console of the competitors... If you want that, for -I don't see why someone would want to have that- well... you know what to do but you will regret it because...

I am still not clear on what happens if you want to sell the hardware when the games are all tied to your XBox account. Are you going to have to find buyers for your games- with Microsoft having a piece of that action- and a separate buyer for a used hardware with ZERO games?

If you had a good experience with the Xbox 360 and you want more of the same or better then buy a PS4.

Well apparently someone did something about it. Not bad.

holy fucking shit, this thread is irrelevant

So why do you bother?
