Since I haven't played games at a friend's house since.....about.......2001........{shrug}
Otherwise, that is pretty cool. But *gasp*, doesn't that mean you need a consistent and reliable 'net connection?!!!!

It's all about FREEDOM OF CHOICE. OPTIONAL consumer can decide if its best for them. You don't want it/can't use it fine you can still play games the old fashion way.Originally Posted by AustinWolv

Again, as I said with the same feature for the One, it's awesome, but I just don't see the point when you're going to have to download at least half the huge file before doing so. If it's a 20GB file, you're still going to have to download 10GB+ of it before you're able to start playing it. It's a cool feature, but I'll never use it.
Now if the One or PS4 want to implement what the Xbox One WAS going to do and allow sharing of games, I'm all in for that.
Well you can share games (assuming only one log in at a time). Just share your user name/password with the buddy and boom shared games.
Just find it funny that some will trumpet this, despite smirking at One for it.
Smirking at XBONE for what? Limiting what you can do and then, because of preorder pressure and OVERWHELMING dislike by the internet, completely backpedaling on what they are going to do with their console?
I didn't give two shits about always being online. I'm always online anyway. I also didn't give two shits about the no used games things. I don't by used games. I cared about the extra $100 for a piece of shit that I don't want at all and NEVER will. Thus, Microsoft can go take their shitty console and jump off a bridge.
Eh, not the same. Even at that, Sony is already cracking down on that. You used to be able to share your account with 5 systems. Now it's down to 2. Hell, with the PS4, it might be just 1, we don't know that yet.
ROFL. Angry much?
At a company forcing me to buy a piece of hardware I don't want at all just to play their damn console? Yes. Yes I am.
No one's forcing you to buy anything. If you're not happy with the inclusion of Kinect, simply don't buy it.

And I'm not going to. But that doesn't stop me from lambasting them for their idiocy and being mad at a shitty company for making such a dumbass product decision.No one's forcing you to buy anything. If you're not happy with the inclusion of Kinect, simply don't buy it.
You and I have very different opinions on what a dumb decision is. Bundling Kinect with every One console to enable developers to better support it is not what I would call a dumb decision. I wont use it, but I'm not about to fault a company for trying to support their devices.
Sony is doing the exact opposite with their camera thing. It's not bundled, therefore it isn't going to sell, and as a result of that, no one is going to develop anything for it. They're manufacturing all those things, and it's just going to sit on store shelves like the Move did. I don't see why you'd be all over Microsoft for trying to avoid that. It seems like a smart business move to me.
Part of me actually wants to be one of the 10 people that buys the Playstation camera, I think if I had more friends come over and game then it would perhaps have been a worthy investment solely for the fact that it can see who is holding what controller.
The question is: is charging an additional $100 over your competitor but including Kinect going to increase your profit?
The answer thus far appears to be a RESOUNDING HELL NO! Just sayin'
Based on what? The console selling out everywhere? Yeah, I bet Microsoft just hates that.
Based on the PR backlash re: Kinect and their #1 competitor outselling them in pre-orders.Based on what? The console selling out everywhere? Yeah, I bet Microsoft just hates that.
Their competitor is outselling them solely because they've allowed way more orders. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Xbox One. They can only sell as many as they are able to make, and so far, they've completely sold out. I don't see how they could do any better, honestly. I guess they could start selling imaginary consoles, but I don't think consumers would like that too much. I mean seriously, if you're selling out of all your available stock, how exactly can you do any better?
Well your presumption is false if you think demand for XB1 is infinite. It undoubtedly went WAY down after E3. If not, why do the XB180?
