I thought you could start a download and turn the machine off and it would still download.

Did y'all really think you have to turn your xbox on at some point every 24 hours or it will not work.

I don't know where they got that. It just has to check in every 24 hours.


It's more profound that just needing to "check in" every 24 hours.

On the One, you're purchasing a license to play the game. On the PS4, your disc based purchases grant you actual ownership of the game.

Still losing sales because of that though


So say my power went out for 2 days. If I turned my xbox one on would it just not work?

Still incredible early to make that assumption. They probably will more because of the price than anything.

Same with the Xbox 360, considering you don't need an Internet connection to use it.

You could watch TV and play Blurays, but you can't play games if you don't check in every 24 hours.

Not if you actually read the EULA.

You would probabaly have to do the internet check before you can start playing games...The console will turn on and im sure you can do somethings just not play any games.

Definitely. I am going to make the prediction that there will be a large number of people who purchase the Xbox One without knowing it has to be connected to the Internet beforehand, resulting in a large number of pissed off parents and returns.

Remember, not everyone follows gaming like many of us do.

Younger kids just see a gaming console and their parents cough up the cash.

This could be a good thing. Maybe there will be less children playing then.

To other gamers, yes.

To Microsoft, not so much.
