New Microsoft Console

Talk less, smile more.
I've never gotten any Xbox console. But I heard the next Xbox doesn't allow you to play used copies. Every game you buy for it has to be your own new copy (Like somehow the console scans the game and it will forever only work on that particular Console). And also that you must always be Online to play games even when playing on your own. Which just seems generally to be a dumb move no matter how you twist it.

Microsoft's kicking themselves in the foot with those kind of things.
 
Well, yes, but I've just never heard that phrase before. It sounds a little strange, because you use your foot to kick things, so kicking your foot with your foot just doesn't sound right.

This is false.

Not sure about the used copies thing but i'm actually pretty sure that is false as well.
 
I have a friend at school who spends all of his time playing XBox and told me about the online thing.

Thanks to you Rocker and can tell him back that this is false.

Bet your brother wants this.

Your welcome.

The main thing i don't like about Xbox and the reason i don't have it: You have to pay for the online stuff. Playing online is free on a Ps3, so i prefer it among other reasons, though the others are quite more biased.
