Noooo Jek of course your not a fanboy, lol
Quite right mr blond and because of all the restrictions I certainly won't be buying one, paying twice for your internet is a scam I will never accept and DRM etc is yet more anti consumer money grabbing, i'll leave the idiots to fall for that.
whats that, your buying an xbox one, point made.
How is DRM and 24 hour check in monitored by Kinect not to mention paying for online serving gamers? if you are confused I worry about you I really do.
I'll spell it out for you they are not options they are stupid money grabbing ideas,
Jek you must be working for M$, or the biggest fanboy going, stuff the games, DRM, always on kinect and 24 hour check in, and you say nothing.
until you do you can't be taken seriosly.
Not the only difference Jek, on the xbox one you will have to pay for online with some form of DRM monitered by kinect and 24 hour check in, something you choose not to mention, I wonder why?
GameCents I am somewhat relieved to see gamers like yourself standing up for gaming, what doesn't make sense to me is your proposed solution, what was wrong with buying a game and using how you choose.
OK Jek lets give M$ the benefit of the doubt and say all the news coming out from them is somehow being misunderstood, I can't see how that `can be the case but if it is I will be more than happy to give M$ some credit, but if on the other hand the news being revealed is correct then I would hope it would stir some sort of reaction from you, as in no way will it serve gamers to have fees for 2nd hand games, online checkin and hopefully then you will fight against it, trust me if it were S...
Jek there is a but because I really expected something better than a rectangular box, would it be a deal breaker if the PS4 looked like that no but it would be a disapointment.
The real deal breakers for me are paying for online, the crap they are pulling with used games and every 24 hours having to have my system checked, whatever I think about the box is irrelevant compared to those and for you to not say a word against such proposals definetley labels you a fanboy, which i...
Jek looks don't matter, but they could of at least tried to come up with something more modern than a rectangular box for gods sake.
I could do that, hell a 5 year old could have.
They would have to reverse every stupid decision they have just announced and announce a hatfull of amazing games for me to even care, since the stupid decisions will remain the games are irrelevant .
Also charging for online would also have to change which of course will never happen.
When the news broke about always online xbox fanboys said M$ wouldn't be so stupid and wait for the official announcement despite a huge outcry MS said nothing.
When news came out about blocking 2nd hand games xbox fanboys said M$ would not be that stupid and wait for an official announcement, despite a huge outcry M$ again say nothing.
Well we all know why now it was all true in one shape or another and yet xbox fanboys are still trying to defend it!!!! ...
Any people who think M$ has user interests in mind are blind or stupid, it is one charge after another and if people accept it like they did the online tax with the 360 then it will only mean more and more money grabbing from M$.
Luckily it seems people have had enough and no longer support their crazy attempt at controlling gaming.
KInect spying in my home forget that!!!!!!
Fair play to you SDF Repellent I thought you were lost to the M$ brainwashing and had given up hope for you, well done for giving the M$ plans the finger, it took you a while but you got there in the end.
One of the reasons given for the xbox failing in Japan was the online fee M$ charged, Japan it seems are not so stupid to pay twice for their internet,cant see M$ dropping the online tax so another failure in Japan awaits and that was before all the other crap that has been announced which is probably going to kill the new xbox in every other country too.

Edit: I also believe there will also be some sort of "lending" system. If I want to lend the game to a friend, I will go on my console (or theirs), sign into my profile, elect to "lend" the game to said friend, which will give them access to play the game but will make it so I can't play the game anymore until they "lend" it back. Once again, only one online profile can play that license at a time.
Do you even listen to your...
As I have pointed out to you many times Jek, paying for dedicated servers etc is very different to being forced to pay again for your internet access, something I will never support and neither should anyone else.
Just to put your comment into perspective Jek,
being forced to pay twice for your internet, messing up the second hand market and online checking every 24 hours are really really bad things.
PS4 for me how M$ can make such stupid decisions i'll never know.
PS4 for me even before the train wreck by M$, I would never pay again to use my internet and I certainly wont be paying again to use a game I have bought in any way I choose.
you guys prepared to pay twice for your internet were just asking for more and M$ will give you as much as you can swallow, I tried to warn you.
SDF, at least your not trying to defend M$ plans for restricting 2nd hand games even an xbox fanboy like you have their limits, there has been no news of Sony trying this stunt and you could very well be putting two and two together and coming up with five, time will tell about what Sony has planned, we all know what M$ are doing and it stinks anyone who defends it really are idiots.
I'm not sure M$ have the full picture anymore, their stupid ideas about DRM, always on kinect and and account checking every 24 hours has stirred up a hornets nest, what surprises me is why they thought gamers would accept it.
