DailyGame - "From games not working if the console hasn’t connected to the internet in 24 hours, to only being able to pass along a game to one friend, to the ability to only resell used games “at participating retailers," Microsoft gave all sorts of fodder for gamers to chew on. Yet it’s the Xbox One game rental policy — or lack thereof — that may be the most intriguing policy of all, if for no other reason than it threatens the very livelihood of companies built on the rental industry, namely GameFly and Redbox."
The Ace Combat series celebrates its 30th anniversary, and Bandai Namco revealed interesting initiatives, on top of a poignant message.
That controller looks like a cheap knockoff... it should have been a proper DS5 design.
what a dumb take.
Ace Combat 7 is one of the best games of the past generation. It doesn't need VR gimmicks to "redeem" it.
Can we get a new Ace Combat, with full vr and not just three or four levels, for PS5 and PSVR2
Also if we could get a remake of my all time favorite, Ace Combat5: The Unsung War, again with full vr for every mission with DualSense and flight stick haptics.
Getting a victory in Fortnite Battle Royale is more more challenging after the recent change.
The Retouched update for Dying Light that improves graphical features has been released; here's how it compares with the Enhanced Edition.
It is no coincidence that Redbox set up a feedback website asking "how would you feel if the next generation of consoles didn't let you rent games?" and texted all of its customers the info.
I anticipate Gamefly will also speak up. Smaller video stores and mom 'n pop shops will protest. The less corporate-run the shop is, the more likely they'll just flat-out refuse to stock XBox One and Xbox One games (since the retail profit on those is incredibly small, anyway).
I was thinking about this ....id say if the xb1 sells very little because of restrictions like this then ms might tweak the restrictions so renting is possible........but this is ms we are talking about so thats probably not gunna happen.
this is reason #3.b on why im not giving ms money this generation.
Regardless Redbox wouldn't be killed off. I hardly never rent games from Redbox only movies. With Dishnetwork buying out Blockbuster and closing the majority of stores, that's where i rent games, so smart on their end . Any un approved re sellers will defiantly have to close thx in part to the feeBox creators brain fart moment.
Possible. If they had "special copies" that made it work with being rented out to multiple people/profiles I could see that being the Trojan horse for hackers trying to crack the DRM.
There is two other consoles. No way one console could kill GameFly unless third parties are given the abilities to employ similar schemes against game ownership and consumer control on Sony and Nintendo consoles.
