This is all on top of having to pay for the Xbox Live service. If you don't, all the media features will be locked.

The lack of gaming content at the reveal is a legitimate criticism.

The always(sort of)-online requirement is a legitimate criticism.  Although, their direction on this is explainable.  Still a major pain in the ass. 

However, this outrage over a fee for used games is ridiculous.  Take Angry Joe's rant in the link on the last page.  He's raging about not being able to lend a game to a friend and seems to think his friend is entitled to play that game for free.  Sorry Joe, you're great and everything, but you're wrong on this.  We were getting a free pass on this issue.  No more.  Microsoft is protecting itself, and frankly, the belief that your friend is entitled to play that game you yourself bought is absurd.

I would like to see this fee waived for retailers of used-games however.  But that would also require the original owner remove the software from their X1 and I'm not sure they've implemented any such process.


I have every right in the world to tell Microsoft where to shove it. I share my games with my cousins and not being able to do that is a deal breaker.


My brother and I use each others games all the time.  We saved a lot of money.  I'm just saying we were ripping off the system.  I think this air of entitlement reflects how spoiled many gamers are; and how out-of-touch they are.  If I do go for the X1 (which is still highly doubtful), I will miss being able to interchange games.  I'm just criticizing this tunnel-vision view that Microsoft is somehow being unfair in charging someone who hasn't paid for the game...for playing the game.

Extend your e-peen. Or, for folks like myself, provide a meta-"score" to keep building on while playing games for the hell of it. 


No wonder why people keep telling me that gamers on XBL are mean Image IPBImage IPB

On the plus side the improved controller looks nice. The 360 controller was already the ideal gamepad in my mind so at least they didn't screw that up.


Very true.  Also, even though it's ugly as hell, the console itself has been designed for performance in mind with tons of vents and an absolute horizontal position.

I'm tempted to join "The Master Race" but what I hear about gaming computers is they're expensive. 

Alienware looks so amazing but that pricetag yo...

All the more reason not to buy XBL tbh.

You could cut a slice of bread on the bottom edges of X1's controller :wub:

Kind of looks like the Original Xbox S controller and Xbox 360 controller had a baby.

Dont buy an Alienware. Don't be fooled by the specs. You can build your own gaming PC for WAY less. If you buy an Alienware, your only buying the brand, not the quality.

You could build a decent one for a 3rd of their price, I've seen.

As long as I can still play games on it, I can live with that.

I don't think they'll really combat "used games" without pissing off gamers... though gamers are the one buying used, which from my perspective, at least from where I live - new releases, used... are what, 5 bucks cheaper? Is that really worth it?

And absolutely no one should be surprised. :whistle:

If and when your Xbox asks you if it has a soul, you know its about to hit the fan and then we will all learn that the Catalyst was right.

Don't bother with that. Brand name BS. You can build your own.

Hidden, do not buy Alienware, build your own PC (it's worth the experience, even if frustrating at first) and you can save tons, while still having a beast computer. I build my own last year and I love it and I'm going to upgrade again, to last me a few years, since the one I built was specifically for SWTOR and I wasn't planning too far ahead.
