Oncoming News about the 'Xbox One' Updating as much as possible.

Scroll to the bottom of the topic for latest news.



Microsoft has just announced that there will be a fee when installing games to another console after initial instillation. The Blu-Ray disc drive will be used but not so much as every game only uses the disc for distribution, once inside the console it will be installed into the 'Xbox One'. If installed again after the initial installation there will be a fee to install again.

Thoughts?


EDIT: New News has surfaced: Microsoft has just announced that the 'Xbox One will not be backwards compatible with Xbox 360 games. Microsoft saying since the 'Xbox One' is on new architecture and Xbox 360 games would not work with it.

EDIT:
A new video has surfaced. This is a video of the Xbox Executives talking about some of the features on the 'Xbox One'. This video will also talk some about Skype intergration and other things.




EDIT:
New news somewhat, though the Xbox Support twitter I found that only 'Xbox One' accessories/controllers will work with the Xbox One. This means your scuf controllers will not work with the Xbox One nor any Xbox 360 controller for that matter. They haven't ruled out headsets yet so your current headset may or may not work with the Xbox One.

Here's the tweet: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] (Before people say that this is fake, the twitter username @XboxSupport1 is one of 12 Xbox Support twitter names they use for when they get a bunch of questions/ooncerns)


EDIT:
According to Xbox Support the fee for used games is false.

EDIT:
More speculative news, Microsoft could be looking into adding more features into the Xbox Live Silver/Free membership.

they would find a way around that problem, such as storage on the cloud might have something to do with it? But who knows

Wouldn't you already have the game on your hard drive or cloud storage?

If the RROD era comes back to haunt the One, then they're going to have many complaints with having to pay to install games they've just paid ~45 GBP for.

I think it's disgusting. Have to pay for your games, and then pay to use them? When I had an XBOX, I had one in the UK and Spain. If I'm paying for my games, why should I have to pay to use them?
