this one machine one account bullshit is getting worse and worse....I can somewhat understand limiting it to 1 machine only, but 1 account is like a slap in the face...
I bought the full blown Black Ops 2 package for my 2 little bros where they get all the mappacks and DLC, and the other day they got the latest one, same machine but it only worked on one account, almost useless when they got their own separate accounts....
When you buy a game, like almost everyything in life it should be your property in full, yours to do with as you please.... imagine buying a car (nissan) from a private seller and then having to go pay Nissan separately afterwards to be able to claim it as your own

Yeah it's kind of bullshit, me and my friends would always swap games we've already beat and it was bad enough with the online passes, but now you won't even be able to play the game at all without paying. Hopefully Sony doesn't go this route but I bet they will jump on board.

Based on the whole "No used games" thing, that pretty much just killed the new console for me. I mostly play my ps3 and rent the odd Xbox game from time to time. Basically I'll have to rent the game, as well as a play pass each time now. Still not 60$, but it's the principle to me.

not feeling this cloud game shit. means you have to have internet connected at all times.
and having the kinect camera on 24/7 is fucken shady. this is the future of skynet lol
even with the old xbox 360 kinect, i always hated the fact that the kinect light/camera was always on.
no mention of gamerscores being moved over either. BS

i was a dedicated xbox user, but microsoft really fucked up on this one. upon many other issues, this one really boggled my mind. what up ps4! http://kotaku.com/xbox-one-does-requ...ay-o-509164109
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.

I'll miss being able to borrow games from my buddy. I guess maybe he'll have to lend me his console along with his game lol

I don't see it as a coincidence that EA is doing away with their online passes, they know what's going to happen

an easy fix for this one console bullshit;
The disc must be in the console to play the game. No disc, no play.
Who cares who owns the disc or where it came from, only one player can play it at a time unless you go out and buy another hard copy. Doesn't that just make sense.
Are people really getting lazy to the point they don't like the fact they have to get up and physically swap games out of their consoles.
I will admit, I will buy it. I will use it for gaming and Blu-ray. I just prefer it over Playstation, that's my personal preference, that's what I am used to.

| Xbox One will not support Xbox 360 controllers | Polygon
no 360 controller compatibility is a dick move
they have the same number of buttons and same basic shape

All gaming consoles. I don't game that much but somehow have all 3. In January deiced to go to EB games and pick up Gran Turismo 5. Found the new unopened Game of the year edition to be cheaper than a used version. 
Get home turn on the PS3 that I have not turned on in months and put in the game. Then the updates start. It took 4 hours to do all the updates so I could play a game. 4 hours from putting in the disc to playing my first game What a load of crap.
What happened to the days of putting in a game playing for 15 minutes and then turning it off. It takes 10 minutes now just to start a game. I can understand what games on mobile phones are so popular now. No need to wast 1/2 a day just to play a game.

they purposely made the console thick as fuck! the next iteration of xbox one will be half the size most likely a year later. Over all the looks of the console looks like a old ass vcr!

Love the HDMI pass through. I'll be able to do away with the shitty UI on most DVRs and use this one. Voice command will be great for channel changing too.
As far as the always online thing, I think you'll be able to play for longer than 24 hours...they'll just change how long you can remain offline before a necessary "connect" to the network is required. Used games will be allowed, just ironing out the policies around that.
Can't wait 'til I get to E3, lots of big reveals in terms of games for the X1.

I'll probably buy it for my kid but I've all but stopped console gaming unless I'm going to play a game of hockey or football with my son.
