xbox 1 charges small fee to us pre-owned games cus it will be permenantly on the xbox 1 and you wont need the disc I've been thinking about this it could make it cheaper lets say me and two friends want fifa 14 we buy 1 disc and the charge us half price for the extra use
£45+£22.50+£22.50=£90
or how we do it now
£45+45+45=£135
so the new way makes it cheaper if you buy the same game as your friend at the same time

they said the fee would be very close to the full price of the game, so why would we want to pay the full price of the game twice if we buy it from gamestop used?

yeah paying the full price twice is rediculous i'm sure it wont be exactly whats being reported. microsoft support was reported as saying the fee was false and that there was no extra charge for used games.

here it is: They would be paying the same price we paid, or less?" we asked.
"Let’s assume it’s a new game, so the answer is yes, it will be the same price," Harrison said.

And what if you buy a used game from a shop for 45 and have to pay another 45 to install it just because you weren't the first?

There were copies of Skyrim going for $50 a year after release because some games have superlong life cycles.

What if it works the same as the current Xbox where you still need the disc even though you've downloaded it?
I haven't seen the conference so maybe they went over that but it sounds like a load of garbage from what everyone is saying.

no it doesn't that the point in the fee so people don't just pass around the disc and everyone get the game for free that's why we are getting 500gb of memory because you have to download it .

First. Why make it to where you have to install the game anyway? Second. 500gb isn't that much if you play a lot of games. It'll take upwards of 10gb per game just for installation, not including game-play data. So that'll limit you to about 50 games.

odds are it'll have cloud capabilities too, so you can play it off that as well. you could, like, switch between what's downloaded and what's on the cloud.
that's a good enough idea that they probably wouldn't do it.

You can't use the cloud to store the game files. Why? Because a game is 10gb. First, do you know what kind of bandwidth it would take if you had to stream all that data? And do you know the latency people would get? Second, there's only 8GB of RAM. If you've used 500GB for storing games, then you have no SWAP space or anything either. Therefore not enough space exists to temporarily store the data. And even if you fit the game there or into SWAP space, what memory would the game then have?

i'm not talking about playing it off of the cloud. i'm talking about uploading the games on there, and downloading them when you wanna switch games. essentially you'd have your most played games saved locally, and the rest on cloud. you'd delete your local save on one, and bring up the new one. then if you wanna play agame again, then a few hours before, you say "hey, i wanna play that later" swap it out for another game, etc.

Exactly my point the system as a whole is flawed with the Always on bs people with no internet or low bandwith or don't live in cities or even run out of live and can't afford to buy some for a while are ******.

who the **** can afford the new xbox but can't afford internet?
and regardless-"For certain activities, such as single-player gaming, and watching Blu-ray movies and live TV, the Xbox One does not need to be connected to the internet. However, the Xbox One does require an internet connection for several of its new features, plus any downloads and updates that occur behind the scenes."

Well I own an xbox and i had it before i got a connection to internet, I'm poor sue me, What about people who can't get internet in their area? They could get it as a gift from someone or maybe something happened at their house and they need to cut expenses and they have to get rid of the internet?

if you are cutting expenses you probably are not buying an xbox which will be like six or seven hundred dollars on release. most people would put having the internet as a higher priority than having an xbox.

live has nothing to do with it. xbox live silver is free. it just determines wether you can play with friends online. and, while yes, it does suck, i'm just pointing out why my idea works, not the system as a whole.

Besides live what about people who don't have internet or have extremely slow speed? or if they just do not want to take up all the bandwith because someone else wants to use the internet. but yes you do have a point/

as i said, yes, the always on sucks, and they'll have to reconcile a few points on it if they wanna sell more copies. but, that is the point of late development, and talking about their prototype, they get a chance to listen to complaints, and figure out how they'll sell the most copies. they're a corporation, and they want to make money, and with the amount of complaints there are on the always on feature, if they didn't make a change, they'd have to be total retards.
also, it wouldn't necessarily take up that much bandwidth. it could just be connected to the internet so it can download updates when they happen, without taking up too much of your time. i mean, i can't tell you how many times i've wanted to break my xbox because it's decided to take an hour to download an update.
also, i just realised that your profile pic is fluttershy. originally i thought it was a ninja for some reason.

. Games designed for the Xbox 360's Xenon processor simply won't run natively on the new hardware, since the xbox one uses an x86
The system is based on a different core architecture, so back-compat doesn't really work from that perspective

Btw the Xbox One doesn't require an always on connection but so far they have said that you will need to connect it to the internet once a day or something so it can be updated and such but it is not 100% confirmed.
