So that used game stuff would also mean I probably couldn't sell any imported games, right? Because Gamestop/XYZ wouldn't accept them.
Doubt it's even region free at this point.

Everyone needs to go read for themselves the policies. Sad that no one takes the time to read. Xbone supports used games.
Seems like a reasonable solution to me
I'm seeing people saying this applies to friends. I don't see that. It says family and I'm betting you will have to provide some kind of info to tie the accounts as family members. I'm sure you can weasel through some loopholes to bypass it but I wouldn't put it past M$ to focus on weeding out users who try to exploit this
Yep, all you need is have 10 friends be in agreement EVERY time you want to buy a game, and also be patient when that guy who says he's going to be finished with it on Tuesday keeps giving you the run-around, or isn't at home, or lives in another state so now you have to ship it to him.....
And that's completely ignoring the fact that this scenario has already been likely thought of by MS and the publishers.
Your avatar is the wrong Blues Brother.I hope Sony does the right thing. The idea of only owning a WiiU is frightening.

Boycott campaign?
This isn't a very good example. On PC Xcom has been under $20 (as low as $12) multiple times on many sites, including Steam. It was also given away for free to practically everybody who pre-ordered Bioshock Infinite (Steam, Green Man Gaming etc,).
I know they are your Internet best bros, but they are BFFs with publishers.
Nice move for Microsoft.
Release the bad news before, than only good news at E3.
It "supports" them by eliminating the private seller system and allowing exclusive retailers to jack up prices and then, when one wants to sell, has a monopoly on trade-ins and offers pennies on the dollar for each game.
Yeah, sounds great.
So
PS4 has stronger Hardware
Has free Online Play
More Consumer friendly
More Indi Dev friendly
Will be around the same price as the xbone
Sony showed that they release many AAA exclusives the whole Generation and not like MS only in the first 4-5years.
Why should anyone buy a Xbone at the moment?
So ps4 guys now you now what is coming to to your console. Don't even think it will any different on your side. If not, MS will truley rock this E3 because the publishers will support this. If the publishers will support ps4 without this restrictions then you can expect a new meaning to exklusive dlc for xbox one or maybe even kiss goodbye to a lot of third publishers.
I hope so.Boycott campaign?
Nice move for Microsoft.

Thanks!
Trade-in and resell your disc-based games: Today, some gamers choose to sell their old disc-based games back for cash and credit. We 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.
Give your games to friends: Xbox One is 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.
What happens to gamefly?

Please save us Sony. You're our only hope!

"You can share you games with up to 3 friends, one of them has to wear green socks, another has to be born in June and the third HAS to have been in Vietnam when he/her was 22."

What happens to all the college students who can't play Xbox One because their college blocks Xbox Live access their in dorms (really common for college's to do). You know, the audience MS is targeting...
MS is drunk at the wheel.
This isn't exactly bad news. This is fucked up news. I don't think any matter of good news will save MS at this point.
