Nathanael D. Striker Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Yea, not being able to give games to friends is stupid. Like, really stupid. I mean, don't they realize that allowing friends to borrow games will eventually lead to them buying a copy themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I mean, don't they realize that allowing friends to borrow games will eventually lead to them buying a copy themselves? But this is why you can give it to them once. Cause if you can keep giving it to them they won't buy it /logic. Seriously though, one of the things a home system has over a PC is that you CAN lend games. Buy removing, or even just limiting, that ability your removing one of the reasons to buy a XO in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vla1ne Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 This is possibly the largest PR train wreck in the history of gaming. if they had just left well enough alone this Xbox could have been even better than the last one. but after the reveal, and all this confusion, they pretty much lost all hope of redemption.

Only sony seems to be going the right way and keeping thier console a VIDEO GAME console. Nintendo has it right too. the only real problem they've ever had was allowing 3rd party titles. the selection of games for their consoles has always felt small to me, but they have always been game creators first and foremost. The systems design is questionable, but there's no doubt at all about what it's meant to do. play games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premier Alexander Romanov Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryB-hdtpQRw I am disappointed, Microsoft. You listed the ability to let other people play games you own as a FEATURE of your console. You are going to make us pay even more money to play our games, even after we have completed our business transaction, by essentially making it so there is no such thing as "buying" a game, but instead instituting a glorified rental system. You are excluding independent businesses from your console, not only in game development, but also in game distribution and sales. And you are going to drive the used games business into the ground with you by excluding a legitimate business practice that has been done for DECADES from your console. How can this company think that every single thing they are doing wrong with the XBox One is correct? That THIS travesty is the way of the future?

Flame Dragon Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 O god, another Joe rant. This going to be good. Edit: Started watching, goes without saying I agree with what Joe says. "Share access to your games with everyone inside your home: Your friends and family, your guests and acquaintances get unlimited access to all of your games. Anyone can play your games on your console--regardless of whether you are logged in or their relationship to you." THE FUTURE OF GAMING!!!!!!!!!

Phantom Roxas Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Wait, Angry Joe has video rants on the Xbone? I must see those later. Xbox one is stupid name since its not the first xbox. Xbox 3 or xbox 720 would have been more suitable YOU DON'T SAY? I have a feeling ps4 will steal a lot of xbox fans Or they will just flock to ps4 becuz of all of this change to xbox. why try and fix what's not broken Except this was already off to such a bad start that Wii U sales skyrocketed.

Except this was already off to such a bad start that Wii U sales skyrocketed. First one came out a while ago. A little shocked that you missed it. Its almost like Nintendo knew what asses Microsoft will make of themselves and released their system before the others to catch a whole bunch of sales as pissed off people looked for a different next gen system.

I remember him posting it, I just didn't watch it. I think Nintendo just wanted to catch up to the PS3 and the 360, especially since it was time for them to release a new console. Then developers just felt like being jerks to them, like EA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 I know this is just me being a terrible human being, but part of me would like to see what would happen if the PS4 is revealed to have the same crap, just to see what a lot of people on the Sony side of the fence say about it.

As much as I love Sony, if they do the same thing then I'll just be playing Super Smash Bros, Pokemon, and PC games for the rest of my life.

I mean, I would get a next-gen system because I want to play Destiny. I would probably still go PS4 because I'm use to the controller. Also, I believe that the PS4 will only region lock games not the whole thing.But the tears and rage would never stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, the Wii was in need of an update. I'm still a little shocked that they did leave the door open for developers since it back fired in much the same way it did when the 3DS came out.

They will be just as angry. It doesn't matter who's flag you fly, when someone trys to pull the crap MS is pulling everyone will get mad. I don't even like the Xbox and I'm mad that MS thinks this isn't just them killing their own system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheComposer Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 It'll be fun to see how quickly it will take hackers to break it and let them play offline without having to be online. Won't take long in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Well that's because the Wii U has a infrastructure that developers are too damn lazy to take full advantage of. But how hard is it to just make the gamepad turn the game into a bad hand held. Thats all they need to do, and it can't be THAT hard can it? It'll be fun to see how quickly it will take hackers to break it and let them play offline without having to be online. Won't take long in my opinion. It won't, but should they even spend their money on this? I mean, that will tell MS that what they are doing is ok and they will keep doing it if people buy it.

Phantom Roxas Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Microsoft should just be grateful that the developers are willing to even make games for the system. Then again, I kind of want to see a desperate attempt from Ubisoft to convince me that Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is totally awesome on X1.
