Andrew Eisen: I imagine we were typing our respective shouts at the same time.06/19/2013 - 4:14pm

MaskedPixelante: So Andrew... is there going to be a new poll now? I mean, the one about the XBO DRM is kinda no longer relevant.06/19/2013 - 4:13pm
|
Andrew Eisen: In light of Xbox One's furious backpeddling on its DRM policies, I'm closing the poll for now. I'll probably write a new one later today or tomorrow.06/19/2013 - 4:11pm

IanC: Found three people whining about this so far. Saying that its because of cheapasses and that its going to be horrible online now. W T and indeed F.06/19/2013 - 4:09pm

Andrew Eisen: Technogeek - I agree but: "After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again." Why do I need to connect online to set up a system I'm not going to use online?06/19/2013 - 4:07pm

Technogeek: @Andrew Eisen: I can't really see any other possible use for the one-time setup given the listed changes.06/19/2013 - 3:58pm

MaskedPixelante: Backpedal! Backpedal like the wind!06/19/2013 - 3:47pm

Andrew Eisen: Here's a telling bit: the page with the updates to the DRM? Yeah, it's down right now. And MS wonders why this "online check" stuff irks us so much.06/19/2013 - 3:40pm

Imautobot: Damage is done, I am not going to give them another chance.06/19/2013 - 3:38pm

Andrew Eisen: "Online authentication will still be required, but only during a console's initial setup" Hopefully, that means setting up Xbox Live and such.06/19/2013 - 3:38pm

PHX Corp: @EZK one down, one to go06/19/2013 - 3:37pm

IanC: Yeah, too little, too late. They lost my trust, and this sint enough to get it back. Theres just this lingering fear that one day it will come back, in some way.06/19/2013 - 3:35pm

E. Zachary Knight: Gamasutra has confirmed it. They are reversing their DRM policies. Not sure what it all entails though. http://gamasutra.com/view/news/194649/Microsoft_reverses_Xbox_One_DRM_policy.php06/19/2013 - 3:33pm

E. Zachary Knight: Rumor has it that Microsoft is just going to up and ditch its DRM policies before launch. http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/microsoft-to-pull-complete-reversal-on-xbox-one-dr/1100-4673/06/19/2013 - 3:13pm

E. Zachary Knight: It is the same price as the existing slim, uses all new cables (power and composite) and does not have optical audio. So you have to use HDMI if you want HD video and surround sound.06/19/2013 - 2:12pm

E. Zachary Knight: Interesting. IGN is recommending that you just skip the new 360 redesign. http://www.ign.com/videos/2013/06/18/unboxing-the-xbox-360-super-slim06/19/2013 - 2:12pm
