They won't do that.
Probably.
I reckon they're sticking with just one model, to avoid any sort of confusion, since the device is "all in one".
Integral 500GB HDD seems to be indicating that too, i think.

That's not the scenario I was talking about.
You buy the game, Install it to your console and then disconnect from the internet. You then trade that game in and someone else buys it. Your license for that game is resold to someone and they go home and connect to XBL. You cloud stored license is revoked and given to that person but your offline consoles can't get this info so you can still play the game. That's why it needs to connect to XBL frequently. So you don't just buy games play install and then get rid of them.

New controller has rumble in the triggers. Gizmodo and Sessler seemed to like it a lot.

Last I heard the rumor was the full price console and then one you subsidized by locking in a Live contract, like cell phones.

Gotta have H5 come out though.
Hmm, what sounds like a source that you'd associate with business and finance news, Bloomberg or Gamespot?

No way that would happen, 3rd parties wouldn't support it, they would just develop for the lowest spec device.

That huge randy teammate factor...
2015, 3 year dev cycle, me thinks.
So, something this year, next year Halo 2 Anniversary, then Halo 5.
I don't think my Cable box has HDMI :/
I expected to be able to plug the cable directly into the Xbox one.

H5 comes next year in my opinion.
If it doesn't, you should contact your provider and they should replace yours with one that does. That's gotta be pretty old to not have an HDMI port.
Why is it those defending this used games fiasco seem to keep pointing out that devs don't get money from used games.
They shouldn't need to. They made their money at the initial point of sale. They shouldn't get money for each sale of the game afterwards.
If they don't like the money they get from retailers or feel they're getting shafted, charge more or provide sales direct from your company.
What other company complains about what consumers are doing with their products after they are bought? 20th Century Fox doesn't care who or where I sell my old Star Wars laserdiscs to, Canon doesn't care where I sell my DSLR, Samsung doesn't care if I sell my phone, BMW doesn't care if I sell my car etc. But apparently games devs feel entitled to sales of games again and again. Blame Gamestop for the used games market. I don't buy used games, I don't trade any games. I still have every single game I've ever bought since the NES days in my house, but to hear I can never sell them is ridiculous without having to pay for another license etc.

I hope not, 2 year dev cycle won't be good. Probably.

Not that i'll be playing it either way, looking at Xbox One.

The Bloomberg article is talking about the Nikkei, the Gamespot one is talking about the NYSE. Both articles are correct.
It's not like this is difficult to double-check: https://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE:SNE

No worries! It's actually pretty funny if you look at it hour by hour. I know it doesn't amount to squat, really - just thought it was worth a chuckle.

So I just learned that the controller doesn't have a built-in rechargeable battery.
In 2013.
In 2013.
Just use rechargeable AA batteries.
Integral batteries are shit. IMO.
EDIT pretty much the only issue i have with PS4 controller is the damn integral battery. What do i do when it dies?

Good, then when my batteries take a shit I don't have to replace the controller.
Everything is a 2 year cycle these days. Battlefield, CoD, Destiny... Forza and Mass Effect even? Probably others.
What? I thought it did?
Well, explains why most things are crap, marginal "improvements".
EDIT very concerned about Destiny's 2 year cycle. Of course, after Reach, i'm sceptical about anything Bungie does (but worldbuilding)...
You can never fully explain things that aren't yet decided (almost feels like they're crowd sourcing reactions to random misinformation).
You mean they've already they decided and they won't provide an answer until launch.

I wonder... Some perhaps but...
I know nearly nothing can make me get Xbox One now, even Halo 2 Anniversary wouldn't, despite loving Halo 2 campaign and that i'd love to see it with new and/or updated graphics.

This whole snap window stuff could have some great potential. Skype while playing games, Twitch while playing games, Browser while playing games. Netflix while playing games. Browser + Netflix. Skype + Netflix
I mean its not a system seller but it could be fun to use.
Also having the ability to jump completely to other things is useful. In game recording is good.
Looking at the few positives the consoles has is nice. The controller looks good. 1000 friend limit.

Someone with Tourettes wrote the script.
Looking at the Xbox One info from the dashboard and there is a reference to Smart Match, haven't heard that referenced anywhere else, but maybe just missed it.
