[QUOTE="Bad-School-Girl"]The used game fee is completely fair. Developers around the world spend countless hours creating, tweaking, and perfecting their games, yet people still resort to almost "stealing" their money by purchasing their games used or borrowing said game from a friend.kuraimen

I have 3, 360's in my home, I'll usually buy one copy of a game and rent 2 more copies to play coop with my family or borrow 2 copies from my friends..... if I have no choice but be forced to pay full price for 3 games, I'm sorry I'm not doing it....

if I'm playing one game in the living room and my wife wants to play another game I have in the bedroom, we have to pay again? I pay $100 a year for a family pack, which I just found out they don't do anymore... and I can't even take a game from one room to the other without double dipping in my pockets is just not right.

so I pay a fee a year to play online, pay a fee to play a game borrowed or rented, god damn DLC first day I buy a game when that dlc should probably been in the game in the first place?

I also put up with all the hardware issues from systems, controllers and wireless headsets and this is what I get.... more money pouring out of my wallet?

Might buy 3 PS4's instead cause if, and thats if Sony doesn't do this... it will cost me less to play games coop with my family, and get one X1 to keep playing with my friends online.

either that or go back to PC gaming :|

I plan on pre-ordering the Xbox One as soon as I possibly can, and will be happily picking it up at launch. Here are my reasons why the Xbox One is a perfectly fine console, and how it treats consumers the way it should treat them.

The used game fee is completely fair. Developers around the world spend countless hours creating, tweaking, and perfecting their games, yet people still resort to almost "stealing" their money by purchasing their games used or borrowing said game from a friend.  The fee being the cost of the game is perfectly fine.The fact that we no longer need a disc once the game is installed is a very convenient feature, and i'm glad that I will no longer have to constantly get up and ardously swap discs. Physical copies these days are so arbitrary.

Needing to be online to register a game is perfectly fine, and can result in increased interaction between the gamer and the game, and registration often times involves various extras that develops may sometimes be inclined to offer.

Lack of backwards compatability is something the PS4 has anyway, so why are we suddenly bashing Microsoft for this? Also, as statistics said, there were only 5% of people that actually used backwards compatability on the Xbox 360. Not only that, be we have a veteran in the industry saying this, and he has more credibility than anyone on this forum.

Why does it matter if we can't play our XBLA titles on the XBone? Simply load the game up on your Xbox 360, it's truly that simple.

I can assure everyone here that Microsoft will not be using the Kinects always on feature to "spy" on us. They're a state of the art coorporation and the odds of them being "hacked" are slim to none. If you're so concerned, put a towel over it.

The XBone shutting off from Kinect due to too many people entering the room should not be a problem due to the fact that Kinect is not advanced enough to be able to detect every single movement from everyone. Did you see people complaining when we found out the limited capablilties of the Wii-Remote? Exactly.

Not being able to use our old Xbox 360 controllers and accesories makes sense, I mean why would they when they didn't let us use them last gen? Also. Microsoft is really trying to deliver their state of the art experience, and the new controller presents the only means to do so.

Having to connect to the internet once every 24 hours is a non-issue. Even places with the dodgiest connections should be able to pull that off, and if you can't, then what are you doing on this website in the first place?

It really pains me to see all of these people bash the Xbox One when they don't know what they're talking about.

Games such as Fire Emblem and Luigi's Mansion have been rather diffucult to find retail in comparison to pretty much almost every Nintendo game ever. Some think they're limiting how much they're shipping out so that we're encourage to download these games instead.

Personally, I don't like it. I like having physical copies. And if my brother gets a 3DS, what if he wants to play it on his 3DS? Also, there is no account system for Nintendo downloads, meaning my purchases are only on my system, and if something happens then I have to mess with their support. Plus, having a physical game in my collection is always a lot nicer.

And how much should I bid?

TC, did you stop having fun playing games or something?

Jupp. I see people dont discuss this anymore because they think they are safe.

Referring to it as silliness could mean that I question everything and then make my own decisions. The main reason for use of a contraction is to save time, apostrophes defeat the purpose. I could type "what is" just as fast as "what's".

Over the years, the use of apostrophes has been criticized. George Bernard Shaw called them "uncouth bacilli". In his book American Speech, linguist Steven Byington stated of the apostrophe that "the language would be none the worse for its abolition." Adrian Room in his English Journal article "Axing the Apostrophe" argued that apostrophes are unnecessary and context will resolve any ambiguity.[69] In a letter to the English Journal, Peter Brodie stated that apostrophes are "largely decorative...[and] rarely clarify meaning".[70] Dr. John C. Wells, Emeritus Professor of Phonetics at University College London, says the apostrophe is "a waste of time". Peter Buck, guitarist of R.E.M. claimed, "We all hate apostrophes. There's never been a good rock album that's had an apostrophe in the title."

It's a pretty good one too. General economics. There is clearly a market for used games. If you take those away, people are going to go to cheaper substitutes.

Lol, you are funny if you think that content = profit and that they are going to use their extra money to give gamers more for virtually no extra for them. What used game sales prove is that the model for selling games right now is broken and that people are looking for a cheaper alternative. You remove used games, you definitely are cutting out a huge section of the market INTERESTED in games. You can caitalize on interest but you cannot capitalize on millions of people not trying games at all.
