With the implementation of a fee to play a used game, that could either be good for driving down the price of used games, or just be terrible for the consumer market. Time will tell I suppose.

They spent more time talking about the TV aspects of the console then actually talking about games. However it was nice to see the actual hardware. It all sounds good, but I can't wait till E3 to see some games!

I like it. I'm glad it's not called the Xbox 720. Although Xbox One doesn't sound good either. I'd rather it be Xbox Infinity but the name doesn't matter to me. Only thing that matters is the quality of the system.

I like the controller. I've always liked the Xbox controller over the PlayStation controller.

I always diss the entertainment part of Xbox. They love to talk about a lot of things that don't "matter" but honestly I always end up using those aspects of the system more than actually playing games. I'm always on Netflix, Hulu Plus, Neon Alley and NBA Game Time.

I can partially see why Nintendo called the Wii U said name, but perhaps going with 'Wii 2' or 'Super Wii' would have gotten the message across the console wasn't a peripheral to the Wii. Xbox One just seems straight up illogical as it intuitively sounds like a precursor to the 360.

I guess we lost 359 xboxes :p

I love the styling of the xbox one, but the media part looks like a google TV clone which sucked. I'm sure they will show more games at E3, but so far not impressed and I've never been an xbox guy anyways so i dont really care

I guess I'm only gonna get the PS4, they're gonna have the same stuff anyway besides a few Xbox exclusives I don't care about. People already complain about online passes so I can't imagine the backlash once the Xbox One is released and people start buying used games...

So far I've only seen Alpha Omega Sin' vid on the subject. I don't like what I'm hearing so far. But, like Metal Jesus said, the games are what make a system, so I guess I'll keep my opinions until I see some games.

XBox One, huh? That's funny guys...c'mon seriously what's the real name? That's it? Wow...lame! Whatever...
Well, it's nice to know we don't have to be connected 24/7 to play the games on it so that's good. However we have to be online to register the game and link it to our accounts.
Used games will be restricted with an activation fee which would be bad for the rental services. That's a dumb move.
Also having to be forced to use the new Kinect is retarded.
I'm sure we'll see the games when E3 rolls around.

Well, whenever the next Halo(or other exclusives that I'm interested in) comes out and the price is right, I still may consider getting this but I'll plug my nose when I do...

Apparently you need to be online once a day, even if you're playing a single player game:

You also need to enter an activation code for each game that you buy. The activation code seems to tie the game to your account. If you buy a used game, you'll have to pay a fee in order to tie the game to your account.

While watching the xbox one reveal it screwed up a lot of people's Kinects

http://kotaku.com/so-the-xbox-one-reveal-screwed-up-a-lot-of-peoples-kin-509179256

The service will not be supported out of the box; Xbox One Live TV will require a separate supported receiver device with HDMI output to work.

I think the only thing wrong with that picture is that pic below Infamous is that is a vita game if I am not mistaken.

Sorry for language but this is the biggest piece of shit. Microsoft needs to stop answering questions because they are making more PS4 fans and PC fans.

@XboxSupport Can you confirm Microsoft had pre-publication approval and it was still wrong? Sounds very implausible.


Xbox Support @XboxSupport6
@andylivingston I understand your concerns, but can confirm that any information for fees for used games is incorrect ^JD


Also, interesting exclusive pic, the XBox is supposed to have 15 exclusives in the first year which I'm sure they'll talk about more at E3, also; no Forza? The share button? Really? To be honest neither the PS4 or XBO have me interested yet... I might spend the money to really get my PC in shape and get back into PC gaming.

From all the sites I think that the used games fee was confirmed by the VP of Microsoft. I think Kotaku had the story. I think this story was after that tweet.

I'm not so much concerned about the fee tbh. I'm more concerned about the fact that you need to be online once a day in order to play your games. This means that you won't be able to play any the games that you've bought when Microsoft pulls the plug on the console. This is a deal-breaker for me. At this point, I'm no longer interested in the games.

Sega, please rise from your grave and get back into the console market and save us all from this madness!

Absolutely zero interest if it does not support used games for free. No reason I should pay a company for purchasing it when someone already did. I'll stick with old school at this point.

I'm going to save full judgement for E3 but the only thing I'm excited for is Remedy's new game. Also this, I hope it's Killer Instinct or Perfect Dark.

http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/21/rare-to-show-historic-franchise-on-xbox-one-at-e3

According to this that used game fee is full MSRP lol. That's fucked up.

Zero interest in this. This is a horrible idea. I don't consume the media it's built for. I don't play call of duty outside of bargain bin impulse buys. I have a phat gaming laptop for Skype. Master Chief ill see you in let's plays from now on. Same to you Marcus Fenix.

My only true concern is if EA is money hatted Mass Effect 4 for Xbox Bruno.
