Tell me, how is these changes going to ruin the 'Xbox experience'?

Jesus Christ, is this serious media? Is this journalism?! For fucks sake. I'll defect to Wired, Engadget or whatever.

Confirmed! Same size:

I've played Steam games and I know that it can be a bitch. But all I am saying is that this is the future. Not for us consumers, but for the devs, and hardware makers. They want more control over their products being second-handed. If you play Steam, you know what I mean. They want every-single-motherfucking-one-of-us…

I feel you, bro. But I truly believe the core experience of the system is pretty well estabilished to the point Microsoft can adventure into other areas of entertainment. I mean, the system runs games. What else can the system do about that? Almost nothing except the cloud storage and the cloud computing. Gaming…

I guess people don't take enough care. Simple as that.

Well, I've never had a single problem with my X360 and he's 5 years old now. Not even with the controllers. I had a problem just once, when I dropped it in the table and the disc that was spinning inside (it was turned on) scratched. But the disc was later polished and the console never felt the hit.

Stuff brake, man. How many things that you have lasted forever? You can't hold on to something forever. Also, what about roms to play old games in PC? Dude, as time goes by, you won't give a damn about old videogames. Actualy, it will look so bad you won't be able to stand them. Happened before.

Then, I have to say I admire you. Enough said.

Have you ever heard of warranty? And spare parts? No?
Man, stop fucking whining abou every-motherfucking-thing! You americans pay US$199 for a gaming system today and this is obviously going to happen to the Xbox One not far from now. In my country I pay 5 times that price for the same fucking system and I am not…

I doubt this is ever going to happen.
Also, PS4 is not backwards compability either.

I am afraid this is really going to happen, mate.

That's EXACTLY the point. EA would never dump their Online Pass policy if another one related was not in place. They are ditching Wii U because the system is not capable of dealing with these demands. On the other hand, BOTH Microsoft AND Sony are going to do the EXACT same thing with almost exact same machines! The…

You do a lot of piracy, don't you?!

Sorry man, I was commenting about negativity in general and wans't talking directlty to you. I mean, I see you're not happy about the Xbox One, but my post I meant for the negativity in the comments, in general.

As I reading more articles about this second-hand stuff, I'm becoming more and more convinced EA has ditched its Online Pass policy because BOTH Sony and Microsoft are about to put in effect the fee-for-used-games-system. Hold on tight.

Fair enough.
I guess we're even. I told you my perspective and you just told me yours.

So, since it's not "always on" and it requires "once a day connection", I think we can assume this has to do with the thing your concerned the most: restricting players from playing used games. I mean, maybe the box will run some…

To me, that remains to be seen. I think this has not been clarified enough.

Look man, theres only one thing here that really looks like it's going to suck. Not for me, but for you americans and europeans, and whatever: this second-handed games shit.

THIS!
