Anyone else feel like the family share plan and accessing your games from any xbone was worth the used game policy and 24 hour check in?

A fantastic feature that is gone now because of the squeaky wheel getting the grease.

It was fantastic but almost too so. I still find it hard to believe it was a cut and dry as one person buys the game, 10 others can play it for free. What publisher would go for that, especially those that do strictly SP games?

Are you people insane? Nowhere else on the internet can you find a single person defending the draconian anti-consumer DRM bull they tried to pull. Oh yay, you had to sell your soul in order to not have to have the disk in the tray and access your games anywhere. Maybe you could be an adult about it, put your discs back in the case when you were done so they never get scratched and just take them with you if you want to play somewhere else. Jesus.

I was probably going to get an x1 before this too, now I just feel a hell of a lot better about it, and can look forward to actually playing with friends because now some of them will surely get it as well. The fairly widespread acceptance here of the prior insulting policies (roundly condemned the world over) makes me seriously question the sanity of all of you.

Whatever, at the end of the day you're mad and I'm far from it
