[h=1]Xbox One Will Not Require Internet, Restrict Used Games[/h][h=2]No more game lending restrictions, daily check-ins or region locks.[/h]Microsoft has changed its policies regarding Xbox One’s internet requirements, used game restrictions and more.
Contrary to the details announced earlier this month, Microsoft has now confirmed news originally reported on Giant Bomb that Xbox One will not require an internet connection to play offline games or need to check in every 24 hours; instead, internet will only be required when initially setting up the console.
"After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again," Microsoft wrote. "There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox 360."

That is so true. There is a thin veil indeed for customer oriented products vs. profits.

Had an xbox 360 for a long time and been a Xbox idiot for long, this stunt has given me serious thoughts about going PS4 even though they're back to "normal" Xbox ... Well, I hope I can manage to get both
