I don't like it. Sorry to those of you who supported DRM, but I don't think the majority of consumers want that. Many Xbox owners across the world don't have access to fast or stable internet, and you can't just stampede over those people. Game consoles have always been seperate from PCs, in the sense that if you want to play a game on a console, you can just do it. Sure, an internet connection has many benefits, but consoles shouldn't make consumers connect.

So I hope that Xbox One doesn't do another U-turn and end up back on square one.

What do you think?

Neither one is all that great, IMO.

If I was forced to pick one of them I guess I'd pick CoD (insert subtitle here).

Xbox One Strict Online Requirements - Microsoft have now confirmed that the Xbox One will require users to connect to the internet. Xbox One must connect to the internet once an hour. One and as compared to the Xbox 360. Red Rings of Death fixed Fewer crashes Get rid of Always on Connection Hope we can freely play Used Gamessimransaha

I wouldn't expect the sales to be great by any standard - Microsoft has never even come close to matching the sale prices of PC digital distribution platforms like Steam, Amazon, or GMG. I don't expect them to be any better now.

At least they're moving away from the annoying points system. That's always been a big turnoff for me. 

Can I just say xbox turn to channel 7 and it just turns by itself?  And can I record tv like TiVo?

I think it was called Tower Defense: The Awakening? Or something like that.

Anyway, I'm getting a little tired of MS's crud.

First it was the bad Xbox One policies. Then it was their complete ignorance when they defended those policies. And it took a huge outcry for them to reverse it.

And now, when they say that they're releasing good old titles for free, they send out a crappy little tower defense game. Just so they can say that they're giving away free games like Sony is. (speaking of which, they're releasing Battlefield 3 for free soon on PSN. I never liked PS that much, but...)

I bet that Assasin's Creed 2 and Halo 3 will be some of the last ones they release, because everyone will be concerned with switching over to XB1, rather than the free games.

I like Xbox, and want to stay with them for gaming, but MS might screw themselves over eventually (and their anti-indie policies might contribute to that... unless someone can tell me why they do a $10,000 update fee. I heard there might be a reason behind that).

MS better be careful. They're running the risk of not being top dog anymore.

I thought Microsoft wasn't concerned with attracting indies?

Also, a 3gb ram limit would probably limit big indie games like DayZ, which could really be a hit.

Is the xbox one going to use blu-ray disk's or the same disks as used on the 360 now?

Well, one of the new features of Battlefield 4 is that there are weapons that can be found on the battlefield that you can not spawn with (such as the M82 sniper rifle).

What do you think about this feature?

My thought is that it is a bad idea, unless servers have the choice of wether or not to put them in.

I'm thinking that many people on a team will ditch the objectives and just go search the weapon spawn point so they can get a (most likely) OP weapon.

Turn it off, watch Youtube, or do some MINECRAFT!!!!
