have just been reading up on the next gen consoles.according to a few reports both next gen playstation/xbox won't let you play 2nd hand games 😡 http://www.inquisitr.com/511546/next-xbox-wont-play-used-games-will-require-internet-connection-report/

you'll also need a permanent internet connection to play any game (so that counts me out also 🙁

i really hope they don't implement this,as for people like me,buying 2nd hand games are a lifeline if you're not rich 🙁 if it is the case then i won't be buying one 😡 i cannot see sony/microsoft e.t.c reducing the cost of new games to make up for it 🙁

what do you think?

I think you need to search the forum, we discussed this a few days back.

Short answer; it's bobbins.

Discussed the other day.

The Internet connection is probably twisted truth, there's games now need activated online to play offline too. They use a key pretty much like PC games have had for years, it's to combat piracy.
