Two things: The article's evidence is wrong, but of course it's scripted. In a conference where people are going to be saying "Xbox" 50 million times about random shit you're not going to have a product reacting in real-time to commands that start with "Xbox."

I'm not surprised, it's basically just proof of concept stuff in that particular area.

Real time demo's are usually best reserved for back stage or places where there's less ambient noise so that might actually be shown in real time during E3. Anyway I've been disseminating info on the Xbox One from a lot of areas but this one seems the most enlightening regarding the used game/constant internet stuff:

So what I got from Matt Booty's responses are:

1) No you cannot play a game without an internet connection, however you can play Blu Ray's and music cd's and whatever off-line thing it may do so....probably not much else.

2) You cannot borrow a game from a friend without using their profile, if not pay up!

Most likely services like Gamefly might need special access codes for their games to be rented if not they probably go away unless they want to just stick to current gen games. Gamestop's way to deal with this is a pretty big question though, you can probably still sell back the physical media to them but it'll take more steps and with maybe more or less in return for doing so depending on how Microsoft sets that system up with Gamestop.

I'm thinking a Wii U-like sales trajectory. Good start, horrible follow-through. I hope I'm not wrong.

Assholes use them on Facebook, too. I don't get that shit.

They probably think it's a meme.

The TNL equivalent

is just using the spoiler tag as an aside. Why is this any better?

It was a response for the people afraid of insurance companies/MS/who ever tracking what you eat/buy/do through your CC purchases. If that shit really bothers you then pay cash.
