More power to you if you always pay for at full price for brand new games, never rent, never borrow, never resell or never share games and you like paying for xbox live so you can play “free-to-play” games online. There is no such thing as “used games” for Xbox One at this point and certainly not coming officially from Microsoft. Used games and rental was **_NEVER_** part of Microsoft’s strategy and all the “cloud” bullshit was design from Day 1 to be a front for DRM. There is a reason why they suddenly canceled all E3 pre and post show interviews with the **_PRESS_**.

But know this. If this box became successful, it will mean console gaming as we all know it will die with this generation. Essentially if you get the Xbox One (or even PS4 depends on their strategy), you are essentially buying a low end PC so you can “rent” $70 games from Microsoft, because you didn’t and never have ownership to any of the games you “buy” to begin with.

Enjoy!
