Some features are being cut now because of the Internet requirement removal. Family sharing and digital cloud library are gone, plus there'll be a "Day One" patch to download to enable the offline mode.

 

 

Btw, HBC, Titanfall is coming to the PC too. Oh, and the 360. It's not an Xbox One exclusive by any means.

I did not know! This is some really good news for me, I was thinking I would miss out.

maybe this will boost sale before because the report a few days again showed 3-1 pre-orders for the PS4 vs Xbox. That is  huge lead Sony has.

another source for DRM drop its also funny that they swore up and down that the xbox had to have internet for cloud and most games could not run without it. Yet here we are as M$ eats it's own words.

 

It doesn't matter now, I already pre-ordered the PS4 and about to put my xbox up for sale. On top of not supporting indie devs I would bet money that this is just a move to get you to buy the xbox. After chrismas they will put out a patch disabling half the features if you are not online every 24-hours or even do worse and reverse what they said, get sued but win the case saying you agreed to their terms (which is whatever they feel like).

 

Here is they short and sweet pros and cons

 

Xbox and Ps4 have the same parts (99% the same)

Neither has always-on DRM

PSN is cheaper than XBL

Both have Skype, Netflixs, Hulu

Xbox has HDMI in for Cable box intergration

PS4 has cross-play vita support

Xbox has "glass" (same thing but a tablet)

 

So unless you want to connect your xbox to your tv, which I do not see the point with Netflix or hulu on demand than it comes completely down to the games. Since only a handful of games are exclusive (for real not 6 months to 1 year before the other) its basically a question of is HALO or Titan fall worth a extra $100. For me Titan fall looks awesome and that is what they wanted to make before the infintity guys got fired for wanted to end COD series. Halo on the other hand is old and not even a bungie project anymore. Halo 4 is boring, how is Halo 5 going to any more fun?

thanks for the input , I'll go ahead and replace both . I'll get both on eBay for cheap

tried it on with the on-board GPU?

it's a abit board without onboard video . it's not a prebuilt
