New xbox unveiled

Well, because I paid $7.95 for fallout new vegas, and if it was up to Bethesda, I would have paid $29.99 for it.

Shit... you got me..

Really doesn't bug me at all.... I'm not going to rip/steel games. Why do I give a shit?

Regardless, the check shouldn't be there as it is. This isn't an MMO, its a fucking device. There should be no fucking internet check on it period. Don't sit there and tell me you are fine with them controlling how you use it.

Why? When are you ever without internet?

Unless you are over in irag on a military base, I really see this as a non issue.

Even my 83 year old Grandma that lives in BFE has "high speed internet."

I'm saying that is fueling the dissent, I'm not accusing anyone in this thread of that. I haven't made my mind up if that's the case or not, but PS fanboys are definitely part of the drama. I have a feeling it's being blown out of proportion. But, regardless, if PS4 is releasing a console without giving the developers the ability to place restrictions then now is the time to pressure microsoft to drop it, so I also support it to some degree.

Well said.

No fanboyism here, the constant online checking is straight up bullshit for a console.

Well, if enough people make their opinions known then Microsoft will react.

I haven't made my mind up, it seems to me like it's a majority of ps4 fanboys trying to drum up drama against MS.

Everything I'm reading it's up to the game dev's if they want to block sharing/selling/etc. It's not going to be every game, if any. Microsoft just put that option built in to the XBone.

No that is not true. Microsoft IS blaming the devs and saying they are the ones pushing for it as a scapegoat but all Xbox one games will require internet activation within 24 hours and cannot be shared more than once.

The confirmation about the PS4 drm/used game policy/etc pretty much guarantees my purchase.




I seriously cannot believe the policies that MS is following through with, they really shit on gamers for this reason. I understand why though, piracy was RAMPANT as fuck for the 360. But shitting on the community that makes them their money is not the way to do it.

Pretty much sums up my view too. Pre ordered a ps4 last night through Amazon.
