XBOX ONE REVERSED!

[Tiger]

Microsoft has announced an almost full reversal of the controversial digital rights management features built into the Xbox One. The console, launching later this year, will no longer require an online connection, or need to ping the Microsoft servers every 24 hours to hang on to life. It will also now play discs like any regular console and no longer place restrictions on trading games. There will also be no regional restrictions.

"The sharing of games will work as it does today, you will simply share the disc. Downloaded titles cannot be shared or resold," said Xbox division president Don Mattrick. "Also, similar to today, playing disc based games will require that the disc be in the tray."

Microsoft previously addressed concerns about Kinect's always-on, always-listening monitoring of your living room.

Does anyone know if you can talk to users of the 360 through the one? I'm assuming you can't because the one is implementing Skype apparently.

Same and i think you can talk and play with ech other its just that the graphics are different and in some games like call of duty ghosts people on the xbox one can do things that people on 360 cant or its easier

Yikes. This just made my decision even harder. I'm most likely going to end up getting the PS4 though. I loved my PS3.
