It seems I took what I considered basic fearures for granted with my Wii U. No bc and essentially no lending games AND having to pay for a gold subscription on top of all this bs is a joke and a farce.
What a piece of shit I hope Prole, Patel, and Co. all get to keep their jobs when this thing craters
It seems I took what I considered basic fearures for granted with my Wii U. No bc and essentially no lending games AND having to pay for a gold subscription on top of all this bs is a joke and a farce. I conjecture that although sony hasn't been brazen about it, they have a similar setup just based on how they have been beating around the bush (we already know nothing carries over to ps4 as far as bc is concerned).The thing is though, Microsoft can still carve out a niche like they have always done via brute force and the backing of the bigger publishers. I can't see Sony flourishing in the business going by their current prospects. Anyone advocating pc are in for a surprise if the One missteps, though, as without being subsidized by console sales, AAA won't be able to sustain itself anywhere.Yes I'm concern trolling, but so is everyone else today so I get a turn too.

Specifically, the press release states, in the small print that…At launch, Live TV will require a supported receiver device with HDMI output (sold separately).And, before that:Live TV with Kinect navigation, Live TV with OneGuide, Trending, and NFL on Xbox available in U.S. at launch; anticipating global scale over time.
Kotaku: If I’m playing a single player game, do I have to be online at least once per hour or something like that? Or can I go weeks and weeks?Harrison: I believe it’s 24 hours.Kotaku: I’d have to connect online once every day.Harrison: Correct.

We're not sure exactly what would happen if you don't connect once per day—and that timeframe could change—but this doesn't sound good for anyone who was hoping to use Xbox One without an Internet connection.
I, for one, cannot be happier about how terrible this is looking. I absolutely despise the Xbox Live paywall, paid DLC (that was introduced with Halo 2), and many other antics associated with MS anti-consumer behavior in general.The fact that even Xbox 360 owners are thinking on skipping on the Xbox One makes me hope for MS eventually going out of the gaming business and focusing on other entertainment.
Is all of this worse then 599? Imho yes.

Any mention if the controller works on bluetooth now?
Nope. No bluetooth in the system at all.

I'm disappointed that basically all the bad rumours were true. At least I'll be able to save some money.

At least I'll be able to save some money.I was offering people on GAF ban-bets and cash-bets that none of that horrible shit would be true, I was SO confident Microsoft wouldn't dare do this stuff... thankfully nobody had the balls to take the bets
so...restricts used gamesno BCrequired to be online at least once a dayI'm gonna call this one a win, maxy
Gamestop didn't know:http://www.polygon.com/2013/5/21/4352772/gamestop-president-sony-and-microsoft-see-the-value-in-used-games-onXbox One will have a smaller section than the PC games currently do.
Videogames have changed.It's not about high scores, or fun gameplay.It's not even about graphics, multiplayer, or innovation.It's an endless series of micro transactions,made by children and manchildren.Videogames, and its vast consumption of human time,has become a rational, well-oiled business transaction.Videogames have changed.ID-tagged gamers carry ID-tagged consoles,that use ID-tagged games.Season-passes inside their gamesenhance and regulate their experience.Lending games control.. Used games control..Single player control.. ESPN control.Everything is monitored, and kept under control.Videogames have changed.The age of entertainment is now the age of control,averting the piracy of smart people.And he who controls the activation codes, controls games.Videogames have changed.
3 of my 6 Xbot fans are no longer buying this thing. The rest are leaning towards the PS4 too, but will wait for E3 to make their decision. PS4+WiiU doesn't sound like a bad combo.
