I see this console being number one when it comes to hacking it although it does look like it's more difficult to open, where all smashing on the One for looking like a vhs player but were all also not thinking of what the slim model is going to look like.
But this console says mod me all over especially with usb 3.0 just think of how awesome xkeys is going to be for it. Xkeys 4tb external hdd.

I learned how to mod original xbox a few months ago, so I'm still a newb with 360, but can you put in a larger hdd, say 2TB into the 360 like original xbox?
They called it XBOX One because this One is for suckers. According to MS if I have the console and you have the console and I visit you and bring a game we cant play it. UNLESS we go on Live and pay the full price of the game again.

Even the wording of the MS douche bags makes me cringe
"It sits on your harddrive and you have permission to play that game as long as you’d like," Harrison said.
But what if you want to bring a game disc to a friend's house and play there? You'll have to pay a fee—and not just some sort of activation fee, but the actual price of that game—in order to use a game's code on a friend's account. Think of it like a new game, Harrison says.
"The bits that are on that disc, you can give it to your friend and they can install it on an Xbox One," he said. "They would then have to purchase the right to play that game through Xbox Live."
"They would be paying the same price we paid, or less?" we asked.
"Let’s assume it’s a new game, so the answer is yes, it will be the same price," Harrison said.

I have to agree with SPPV here,
Seems odd Microsoft would try and hinder the used sale market.
If anything they should really be focusing on stopping people from pirating their games. That's what scares quality video game developers away the most.
If this speculated feature really is as bad as the interview with Phil Harrison suggests, customers will probably be so fed up with M$ that they will go back to Nintendo or Sony. Just because M$ makes a decent console, doesn't mean people are that loyal to them

So you buy a game for a gift for someone and they have to pay again??? Makes no sense.
This also goes back to no more used game sales because they will be worthless especially if you have to pay full price once you load it up, instead it would make more sense to just buy the new game instead of the used game. _________________________________________________________ 10% VIP Discount (Coupon Code: HQ-VIP-001 ) - Signup for web hosting at www.TweakedHosting.com/clients/aff.php?aff=004 and earn the HQ network of sites recurring income!

When did this get said I don't think I heard that at the launch.
However at least M$ brought a console to the reveal all the Sony reveal had was the supposed new controller and their livestream crashed on them.
so copies will be floating around the net, but if you install it, it will ask for a fee to run, might be a good way to get cheaper games, well cheaper than top dollar. but you out of luck for $1 games, i get games for about $4 plus shipping for 360 games, and they work fine, this proves its not always online but it is if you want to play a game for the first time,
sorry microsoft this is going to be a failure, only the rich will invest in something they can continue to support in the future, brand new games.
you would have to be insane to buy this machine if you are in the lower pay bracket, (70%) you would never be allowed to play 2nd hand games.
ps4 specs are too similar and they arent crippling the sale of 2nd hand games.
