I thought to myself when I saw this, “no. This has to be some one being silly. This has to be something some one fabricated to make microsoft look worse and people just aren’t checking the source.”

NOPE. IT’S REAL.

AND IT GOT WORSE:

WHAT.

I want everyone to think long and hard on this information.

This means that you are not buying your games.  You are paying 60+ dollars to rent the games from Microsoft, and they can take their game back whenever they feel like it.

You will not own your game.  You will not own your console.  Essentially, Microsoft is saying “We can disable your games and cut you off from accessing your console whenever we choose to.”  Because a ban that locks your XBox Live account means that you will be locked out from all non-game functionality of the system, and by revoking your ‘licenses’ on all your games associated with your account, they can then disable each and every game you own for the system.  Leaving you with a five hundred dollar cable receiver.  Or, in the case of most users of the console, a five hundred dollar paperweight.

All because you accidentally walked into some online glitch and the rest of the players rage-report you for cheating.

This is unacceptable.  Buy any console but an XBox One.  Do not support Microsoft’s sudden belief that they own everything despite our purchase of it, and we have to prove we’re worthy of being shared with by paying exorbitant fees and jumping through constant hoops and hoping someone doesn’t report us for cheating because we made them mad in an online game.

Tell Microsoft ‘No,’ and do not give them your hard-earned money for what amounts to a video game subscription service with a $500 starting fee and $60+ dollar purchases.

Now it’s getting beyond ridiculous. If you planned to buy Xbox ONE, please don’t for the sake of future gaming.

This makes me think of those people that got banned for saying they were LGBT on their profiles…yeah, not Xbone for me this console gen.

Please don’t buy this system.

cant you just turn the camera around or put a blanket over it.

and theres the chance that it might say something like “error kinect camera cannot function when obscured”

Videogame consoles are not supposed to spy on you.

Videogame consoles are not supposed to potentially rat you out to the government.

Videogame consoles are not supposed to arbitrarily decide who sees what’s on the screen and what’s not.

I have never told anyone not to buy a videogame console, but in this case, knowing what I know about the Xbox One, I am seriously imploring people not to buy this machine. The console will not be consumer-friendly, and between the above and an always-on internet connection, how do you know your hobby isn’t siphoning personal information to…well, who knows who?

Suffice it to say, the Xbox 360 will be my last Microsoft console. I don’t care how many more Halo games get churned out.

Adding this here from my videogame blog because it’s too important, and the potential for Microsoft to spy on us, then report findings to the government if asked…yeah, no.

Spread the word!

If you haven’t read George Orwell’s “1984”, do so.

Seriously.

So another reason for the Xbox One to never ever be used as anything more than a bookend?

Oh.

This doesn’t even mention the bullshittery of their policy that if you get banned from Xbox Live you also lose the licenses to all of your games, meaning you can’t even play them in single-player mode.

Or the bit where they’re making people sign away their rights to class-action suits to pre-order the thing, which is downright chilling.

And it keeps getting worse!

jfc I hope my little brother isn’t planning on wanting this crap. maybe I need to text my mother and warn them.
