@gamingfrendly You do realise that once xbone one sells for two years M$ will reverse the DRM policy. The tech is in place, and they are just waiting for the idiots to buy the console.

@sahandx360 I think that this is a ploy. Once you buy the Xbox One, they WILL change their policy again.

@Grenadeh @jdeamaral You should read my post. You make absolutely no sense. I have a great job, I make lots of money. I own my house and have four children. I do not buy used games. I love the idea of Xbox One using DRM. I hope the PS4 does the same. I cannot wait until it goes all digital, and companies find new ways to screw people.

When reading everything about Xbox One, it seems they are intending to get revenue from places like Game Stop, with their DRM idea. Think about it. For 8 years the "Used Game" money hasn't gone to them or publishers. Is it their right to try and get? I wont debate that here because when reading articles, I'm not sure if I am purchasing games anymore or licenses. Someone buys a game at $59.99. They play it for a week, finishing the game and return it to receive $30.00. Game Stop sells that game for $54.99. That close to 92 % profit margin. $24.99 is profit for Game Stop. Microsoft is asking for a portion of that. I'm not sure if Used Game prices to customers will be affected though we all seem to be screwed in the end anyway.

@mjswooosh @jdeamaral you are comparing an item that depreciates in value over something that does not. This is a country where everyone wants to make money, and everyone does not want to spend money. You don't think that car manufactures wouldn't want a percentage of a "Used Car" sale. These are facts. I would rather support the "evil" developers / publishers who make my game, then Gamestop who does nothing for me other then "don't buy the new game. get it used, for 5 bucks cheaper..

I wish they go bankrupt, as they have, in part, made developers close shop.

@mjswooosh @jdeamaral You are comparing a used car that deteriorates over time. to something that is digitally "new", even on a "Used Copy" You believe that 2 people playing the same game copy is okay because of the "greedy" corporation, who should be glad that one copy sold, instead of two. How many developers / publishers are no more, with the help of narrow minded children like yourself. Publisher should get a cut of ever game that gets sold, or re-sold. I go to Game Stop and they try and sell me Used Game over the brand new game. Game Stop wants the money. I would rather support the developers then Game Stop.

I gave up on caring. Starting to sound like politicians and my purchase is my vote.
