[QUOTE="XGC Daystar, post: 477748, member: 59715"] As a long-time fan of the Xbox, I'm sad to say I probably won't be getting the next one. Forcing the kinect on me, removing my ability to play and trade used games, and enacting some pretty crazy DRM policies including making discs useless once the game is installed are all just the top layer of icing on the XboxOne sucks cake. Plus, one of the major problems I had with the PS4 is being fixed. There's now cross game chat. My only gripe with Sony's system right now is that it doesn't look like it has any interesting exclusives - or at least not as many as the X1. Plus, it's the principle of the thing. Microsoft is claiming that when you buy the game - it isn't actually yours. You're simply purchasing a license to use the product (thus the no trading in, all games have to be installed issue). Call me crazy, but if I buy a game, it's mine. Microsoft is screwing the consumer in more ways than one, and I won't support such a draconian future for gaming. Of course, it's still a tad early - Microsoft could still make company saving changes, so I'll reserve my judgement to the final moments. What sucks the hardest is I'm afraid I'll never get another Halo game again. :( [/QUOTE]
