In some  funny news of the day :

"Xbox 360 Kinect owners had some trouble today watching Microsoft's Xbox One reveal due to device's response to "Xbox" commands spoken during the livestream."


 

Yep, I read that and burst out laughing.

Imagine on the Xbox One, since the Kinect is required to be connected at all times, if someone yells out over a mic while you are playing call of duty, "XBOX, SHUT DOWN".

Oh the hilarity that will ensue over Xbox Live over this whole Kinect requirement thing....

nah,its programmed to your own voice pattern

sorry

maybe they can make Gamefly profiles that are issued with each game.

but if you wanted to play the game on his profile..even while you who has already paid for the game is in the same pissing room,you need to pay

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.

The fee is FULL RETAIL PRICE.  

Goodbye Gamefly!

Update on the article:

Another piece of clarification around playing games at a friend’s house – should you choose to play your game at your friend’s house, there is no fee to play that game while you are signed in to your profile.

I hope not.  I still remember the song from when I served years ago!

Sounds like most everyone agrees that Granite City would be better.  I wasn't sure because I figured more families come into Olive Garden but it makes sense that the higher alcohol consumption at Granite City would have bigger bills which does translate into higher tips.

"while you are signed into your profile" - so this basically confirms if you lend the game to your friend and he wants to play it with his profile, he has to pay.

I thought that was already confirmed, but I guess that answers my question of whether or not you could sign in on your friends XBone to play the game without a fee.
