Confirmed: MS retracts Xbox One DRM and Internet Policies (Keep it here)

Now just take out kinect and price it at 400 dollarsNEWMAHAY

"We've been closely watching preorder numbers."

Preordered one just in case this is true and hoping for a price reduction. If not, i'll just cancel.

lol

I bet a few people are doing that... Then we will have the Xbox fanboys on here screaming about pre-orders again.

:lol:

:o.....please do a 180 on mandatory kinect as well

I kind off... liked... some of the... restrictions...?

It's just that they didn't apply to me at all and I like to own the physical copy of a game, but really prefered the digital ease of use. Xbox One's policies made it possible to have both. That seemed so awesome to me and if this is true, that's gone.

But I guess it's great for those who really were struck by it.

Also, now it's on.

And thus the XBONE redeemed itself and everything was right with the world. :Phexashadow13

I'm not gonna pretend I didn't get slight wood from this thread. :oops:

Good but I still think they have a lot more damage control to do. But I already bought mine so..............

Isn't 180 a straight line? lol.NationProtector

I want MS to do it just so I can see the 180 reversals from lems. It took Sony over 3 years to salvage the sinking ship that was their PR department. That gave cows a lot of time to think of excuses in the mean time. MS u-turned their policy in the matter of 3 months. Lems are going to have to think on the fly with this. Should be hilarious. I guess the real world wasn't ready for "the future". :lol:

The thing is that you could share a game online and then play that game with the person with whom you shared it. Basically, it meant I can play Destiny or Forza 5 with my friend even if she doesn't own it. That sounded really **** awesome and I had more use for it than physical lending. It would suck if that's gone.

[QUOTE="NEWMAHAY"][QUOTE="jimmypsn"] I have close friends overseas. Not really practical.blue_hazy_basic

I really hope these rumors are true. It shows that the consumer has power.

Still $100 more ...blue_hazy_basic

lol, i`ll keep game sharing thanks. Also, the user base will be small but cool and full of knowledge :) the braindead consumer will flock to the PS4... its like the good ol xbox days again. Please, be a false rumor.
