Note: please could someone sticky this as it would be a great advantage to the Xbox one forum.

Okay, in this topic I will address many common concerns that the community have with the Xbox one. Some of these concerns are tearing them apart from the Xbox community which we don't want! I for one have pre-orders my Xbox one today! Okay so lets get started!

Sharing games/used games:
After scrolling through the xbox support team on twitter, I have becomed educated at the common misconceptions people have with sharing games and playing used games.
Today, some gamers choose to sell their old disc-based games back for cash and credit. Microsoft designed Xbox One so game publishers can enable you to trade in your games at participating retailers. Microsoft does not charge a platform fee to retailers, publishers, or consumers for enabling transfer of these games.
Xbox One is also designed so game publishers can enable you to give your disc-based games to your friends. There are no fees charged as part of these transfers. There are two requirements: you can only give them to people who have been on your friends list for at least 30 days and each game can only be given once. Fair enough there are a few disadvantages such as the inability to share it throughout multiple friends but once you have played the game round at your friends, jus delete the save and your good to go with another friend if you wish!

Here is a link to info about the subject: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


The kinect sensor:
People are worrying about the kinect sensor watching you in your home. It's so simple I don't understand why people are worrying. Just switch it off at the plug once done gaming.

Online 24/7:
Since the Xbox needs to be online for updates every 24 hours, this isn't an issue as most people go on their Xbox everyday anyway. And if you are having repairs on your Internet or can't get Internet for any reason, it's simple. When you get Internet the updates will be applied and you can play as normal. If it doesn't get Internet access every 24 hours its not a big deal. It just means that it won't update until Internet connection is available! Fair enough you may not be able to play for a few days. But just go outside and do activities or whatever!

The price:
Finally, the price is a main issue for many people. A lot of people are complaining that the $100 price difference is a big problem! This is totally not a big problem! The Xbox provides the kinect sensor WITH the console. However an additional price is needed for the playstation eye and move.

So, what have we learnt? We have learnt that it is complete bullsh*t that we cannot trade games and share them with our friends. We have learnt that the kinect sensor is not a perverted spy and is just constantly there to recieve the voice command to switch the Xbox on. It is constantly online to provide the updates it needs when they are needed and lastly the price is actually not so bad after all!

Thanks for reading guys hope I put some of your minds at ease!
Please sticky this!!
