DNA test.
Plenty. How does Microsoft determine who is a family member?
So you can play Halo and Fortsa Motorsport.
If Sony does the same, I think I'm done with console gaming.
One is an opinion (accurate opinion at this point)
Free online is basically a given
its free on vita
they aren't going to just lock it out on ps4
We still have Nintendo, right? No DRM on upcoming WiiU games?
Can the shared games be played simultaneously? That's what I want to know
Underpowered Console, Overcomplicated Policies, Xbox One..
I wont touch this system, at all...

and there are millions that do. I don't think there are that many people without a broadband connection and honestly, it's painfully obvious that Microsoft isn't targeting them anyways, so I don't see the big deal. the xbone is a luxury good. by definition they're going to be exclusive in some way.
Pretty much this.If Sony does the same, I think I'm done with console gaming.
if you think that Sony won't do the same thing....i only have one thing to say: keep dreaming
Welp. No Gamefly no buy. It's as simple as that.No renting, no loaning. No private sales
No.Can the shared games be played simultaneously? That's what I want to know. If so, the only real losers are used game sellers. I'll just be splitting the cost of games with a few pals

Really does not sound awful?
That shared game bullet point seems kind of crazy. If my understanding is correct, i can basically buy Halo 5 or Shenmue 3(lulz), and share the games up to 10 people on my friendlist? So they won't have to buy the game at all right? And i could access their games and vice versa?
Edit: Ah, its limited to family members... Actually, after re-reading it, it's still pretty bad, but not as bad as i thought it would be.
po knows whats up
Nice to see answers popping up. A lot of this sounds fair to me.
Face-matching algorithms to determine genetic relationship. That's why Kinect is there.
Hope none of yall are adopted or have step-parents/-siblings.

Yeah, anyone thinking they can have some kind of "friends pretending to be family club" and buy one game between 10 people for all to play at the same time is batshit insane.
"You may not play this game. Also, you are adopted and no one loves you."
Pretty much this.
NONE of this shit is good for the consumer.
I'm cancelling my gold subscription right fucking now and going to buy a WiiU.
GG microsoft
We just got some new juniors just so they can be banned for this occasion.
This is delicious.

I will buy a Wii U.

Console crash incoming?
I will buy a Wii U.
They're not as bad as this, I assure you.if you think that Sony won't do the same thing....i only have one thing to say: keep dreaming
I would say, "Sony save us", but I highly doubt game publishers would have one policy for MS and a completely different policy for Sony. I have a sinking feeling that Sony is going to jump on-board with MS and game publishers when it comes to this and online play. Well, I'd be more shocked if they didn't get in bed with MS and game publishers at this point. Sony missed the boat on charging players for online play last generation (XBL Gold is all the proof you need that people will pay for online play.)I doubt they'll miss the boat on the only new games policy (which they get a cut of) for this upcoming generation.
I've been on the fence about going back to PC gaming since I've been playing more and more 3rd party games; this might be what brings me back to the PC. Super-cheap games and I actually enjoy tinkering with PCs.
They are diversifying into publishing...I really hope Garnett lands on his feet.
