New xbox unveiled

Sure it's not PER xbox, it's per xbox live account.

That is how steam etc. works.

Yeah, steam can be used on any computer, but the games are non transferable. If you want to sell a game, you have to sell the whole account. Think that is how the Xbox is going to be.

Take another shot there sparky, it's not Microsoft that's losing out, it's the game makers and they are the ones complaining.

then why do you have to pay Microsoft to play that game you already paid for on a different xbox? your not paying the company that made the game.

either way, i hardly play my xbox's anymore. both my live accounts have lapsed and im having a hard time renewing.

You're missing the point. The entire basis of having the game registered to 1 xbox/ps unit isn't because Microsoft or Sony is wanting money, it has nothing to do with them. It's because the game companies are losing out on a lot of money to used game companies like Gamestop. You have threats of game companies pulling their games from your system, you're going to listen to your money makers. Microsoft/Sony are talking about putting this system in place to appease the game makers, but just as they would put it in place, they can make some money off of it by charging extra to have it disabled. That's what it's about.

If this comes down the pipe, I'm going to think REALLY hard about buying a new system. I don't generally sell games, but I do buy used, and this is horseshit.

I have gotten every ms and Sony console at launch but I'm second guessing this one.

Watching the unveil now. Very excited. I understand and comprehend why they call it xbox one. The name suits it. It can do all-in-one. Im pumped! Xbox one it is!

Its looks like crap and "Xbox One"??!!?? Im so tired of the lack of imagination in the gadget world lately. I would have even gone with Xbox 3 over that crap.

Because of the name? It doesn't matter what the surname was gonna be. Everybody was just gonna call it xbox anyways.

I'm pretty stoked about it. I read a review on wire that had a lot of details about it. Sounds like a monster of a machine.

I've been doing doing some research it appears there will be a used game fee and it will be per account.

Do I hear an echo?

I don't think I have ever called my 360 a "Xbox". Typically I call the first gen Xbox that. But I just bought a HTC One phone and know the freaking pain of generic unimaginative names. When I search accessories or help I pull up HTC One X or HTC One V or other crap. I can see searching Xbox one controller and pulling up original controllers. Just annoyances like that. They could have gotten a lot more imaginative on the name.
