I've been seeing articles so much of late suggesting that one of the big three will go after this generation. I used to think it was Sony because they are in the financial place where they can't accept another failure, but after this I'm thinking it may be Microsoft
What the hell...
This is ridiculous
Microsoft PR in a "We don't know how specs actually work" scenario

Oh, and indies can't self publish on the Xbox One like they can on the Wii U and PS4.
Wow Microsoft, it's like you had a list of things not to do for a console, but thought it was the list of what do
Would be nice, but much of Rare's talent left since MS got it
It really seems like Microsoft expected the conference to be so good that nobody would notice the bad shit that followed
It's a shame, I have 44 games for my 360. I got good use out of it and was hoping Xbox One would continue that awesomeness

This is worrying. If there was nothing, they'd say "Of course we're not putting fees in"...

From MCV
Microsoft shot themselves in the foot and gave the upcoming generation to Nintendo and Sony
No backwards compatibility
No always online, but online required to activate games
Cannot play used games without a fee
Games required to be installed
No gameplay shown
I don't like how it's saying they're tied to an account, not a console or account & console. So based on that logic, your significant others won't be able to play the games on their account. Really just hope that's a glib interpretation...but if so...damn...
