I don't reeeeeeeaally have an issue with the whole no used games thing for the XBone. I don't like it, but that wouldn't necessarily stop me from buying one. My big thing is the need for the kinect to watch you 24/7, and the requirement for an always connected internet connection. I don't see the point...especially with all this PRISM bullshit going on right now. It's just the fact that MS knew ahead of time people would hate that shit, they didn't have to do it, and they still did. PS4 could have done the same thing, but they choose to take another route and appeal more to what gamers want, which is why I'm leaning heavily towards the PS4 now. I'm sure MS will change some things around to better accommodate everyone, and i hope they do because Forza 5 looks to be amazing. but as it stands right now, theres no way in hell I would buy an Xbox.

E3 reveal of Xbox is getting a lot of slack. Mainly because of game sharing, and requiring an Internet connection. I'm not a fan of it, but PC gaming has been doing this for years and no one complained which is why I'm a bit surprised.
fire up steam in offline mode, play all day

blizzard is the only one that FORCES you to get on... but its the nature of that game

I had a physical copy of a game that I couldn't install because it had to verify the license. Without Internet, it never would work.

I even had a problem where I had to take a digital photo of my disc and product code because it wasn't able to get verified. It sucked because I had to email them photos with the current date written on a sheet of paper next to it.

You can turn off kinect anytime you want. There are privacy options in the settings menu.

However, voice commands like "Xbox on" will not work if you deactivate it. It's only listening for that command while it's on. You can also set it to only listen for certain commands as well.

Yeah that kid totally ate shiz but nothing like this guy who basically almost died. Silly M3 owners that don't understand that the car is setup to understeer at the limit, and because of that the corner entry speeds have to be closely watched.

Ahh, bimmer drivers... from the little 116d to M's, they all believe their car is faster/better than everything on the road.

(No offense to the ones in this forum, haha)

I don't know for sure, but the crash doesn't look lethal. Not too fast, no big decceleration... So maybe just a lot of wounds but not lethal
