A week after E3 ends and after watching and listening to the wishes of the gamer on Xbox One, Microsoft finally change policy very different from before. It can be said, this policy is contrary to what has been previously initiated. Quoted from Wire Xbox, Xbox One basically has the same properties as the Xbox 360. Here's the gist:
1. No more online check in every 24 hours. Internet connection is not required to play the game offline. However, online games should be activated only once at the beginning, and so on can be offline. Xbox One can be played anywhere the same as the Xbox 360
2. No more restrictions on trading / exchange game disc. The same principle has been applied so far on the Xbox 360.
3. Games can be purchased digitally or physically at the game launch day. And still can be played offline
4. No more region lock.
This new policy, obviously have an impact on what Microsoft had previously scheduled. Sharing games that previously could be done to 10 users or friends, is likely to be abolished and a return to traditional sharing, namely through the game disc. Purchased game by downloading not be shared or can not be sold. Then, the game disc must always be in the tray blu-ray drive to play the game. All the same as the current Xbox 360. With this drastic change, then of course there are happy and some are disappointed. However, above all, Microsoft has always listened to feedback, both from users and from game developers as they are written here.
