    Microsoft Changes Tune - Reverses Internet Requirement and Used Game Restrictions





    Microsoft has officially confirmed the news that they are no longer restricting used games and have eliminated the 24 Hour internet check in requirement.

    In a posting on the Xbox Wire Don Mattrick, President, Interactive Entertainment Business states:

    Since unveiling our plans for Xbox One, my team and I have heard directly from many of you, read your comments and listened to your feedback. I would like to take the opportunity today to thank you for your assistance in helping us to reshape the future of Xbox One. 

    You told us how much you loved the flexibility you have today with games delivered on disc. The ability to lend, share, and resell these games at your discretion is of incredible importance to you. Also important to you is the freedom to play offline, for any length of time, anywhere in the world.

    Read the entire statement HERE.

    Good move, Microsoft.  This might just heat up the next gen console wars and ease the pain of Sony's immediate domination.

    That and Kingdom Hearts 3 is coming to XB1 also...

    Decisions decisions.
