    Ok. Also, why did Recon Number 54 edit his post? [b]1.[/b] You have to connect to the internet within 24 hours or you can't use your Xbox One. Accidents happen and internet providers sometimes go down for a while, regardless of your current standing. You also have to activate every game with Microsoft before you play it. [b]2.[/b] You have to download every game to your Xbox One or you can't play the game. Sure, your Xbox has 500gigabytes of memory but I've got a terabyte (1,000 GB) and it could still fill up. Because you are downloading the entire game you will be forced to delete past games if you play to many. [b]3.[/b] The used game fee prevents you from sharing any games between your friends or other consoles. Ever. Plus, a simple way for pirates to pirate Xbox One games is just emulating an original code in the disk which will make someone else's disk not work for them. [b]4.[/b] You have to have the Kinect plugged in all the time always or you can't play the Xbox. Sure it comes with the Xbox One, but if it ever breaks you will have to go out and buy a new one just to use your Xbox One. That will be expensive because it is a 1080p-recording, motion sensing, sound detecting, device. [b]5.[/b] It is not backwards compatible, so you will be forced to start your entire game collection over again or keep your Xbox 360 around. [b]6.[/b] It does not offer any output compatible with standard definition TVs. If you don't own a high definition Television you can't even play the Xbox One. [b]7.[/b] Microsoft has been focusing less and less on their games but more and more on other unrelated products. Remember how the Xbox 360's layout got worse and worse with advertizements everywhere? The Xbox One's operating software reserves 3 gigabytes all for itself, meaning tons of stuff is going to be going on behind the scenes regardless if you are playing a game or not.
