Jonathan Bester from ITF Gaming writes: For some time now, one of the biggest fears in the gaming community has been that Microsoft, and for a while even Sony, would implement some sort of Draconian locking system, which would prevent console owners from either trading in or even loaning their games to a friend.
The Nerd Stash: "The Wasteland is unforgiving, and there are a ton of brutal ways to die in the Fallout universe. We listed out the absolutely worst ones."
Wardens Rising is looking like a promising new take on the ARPG genre, especially when played with friends.
"The Bristol-based (the UK) indie games publisher Auroch Digital and indie games developer Positech Games, today announced with great happiness and thrill that their hit-political title "Democracy 4: Console Edition", is coming to consoles (PS4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores on June 5th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
... but the sheer fact that I can't simply loan a game out to a friend for him to enjoy, is reason enough to not want this console.
(Among the many other reasons they've given us...)
I like to buy pre-owned games sometimes, especially with games I'm not sure about. This has put me off the Xbox One.
NO BUY
i get all my games from gamefly. No word yet if there is going to be a rental deal worked out, im assuming not. If there is no deal with Microsoft One ill be going the ps4 route.
Ive had gamefly for almost 3 years now & have played basically every major release to come out this gen & a lot of not so major ones. Dear god ive played 199 games this gen.
I like to buy used games later on in it's cycle, maybe to replay some classics that have dropped down greatly in price.
O well, I'll just stick to Sony.
