Im just going to say your source is huge Bull Shit bro. What the hell is this? Not real. That is impossible to make the 720 console dvd drive not allow pre owned games.

so? who really used their xbox for that anyway? i don't know of anyone who did but. what ever.

what aload of :idea: im not getting it if that happens

its not impossible LOl

all you need to do is enter a code in for each game...so it will be registered to that xbox....

I never buy pre-owned games so it's not a problem for me

It's a stupid idea..

What if you have a ton of game and your xbox breaks?

you have to buy all the games again?

this will not happen.

this is total bs and has not been confirmed by anyone and it would play pre-owned games you will just need a new online code, so it will still be cheaper

You can't be serious.
First, it was online passes and now this.

Not really, the game/disc could come as a kind of code, and the console reads that one time code. Kind of like using the disk as a login/user account.

This idea sucks though. The only way they could get away with this is if the initial price of the games was low at around $20-$35.

Also, if microsoft were to implement such an idea. It would result in a massive dip in some company profits. Such as gamestation. They have a successful system where consumers can swap old games for store credit. with which they purchase new games.
If businesses could not use this feature, their profits and sales may drop drastically.

If MS go ahead with this idea, then MS will probably either enjoy having it's entire legal team tied up in knots in the courts for years, or enjoy losing literally stadium-loads of people to whatever system doesn't handicap them in any way (PS4?)
