The Xbox One is better than people think it is?

Why are people disliking the Xbox one? People need to realize the purpose of the DRM. This will make Xbox Live like steam. They will be able to buy games at extremely low prices. This is so you don't have to go to GameStop and pay $60 for a new game. Sharing games isn't an issue, because of the 10 friends list feature. This lets my friends play any game I have for the Xbox one. If I buy BF4 and Destiny, my friend will now be able to play those games even if he hasn't bought them. We can play co-op or he can play my games when I'm offline all through Xbox Live. They even get any DLC I get. Isn't that awesome! I'm sure Microsoft will add an offline feature to games you've bought too later on. You can even sell used games without a fee. Overall, you save money when buying games for the Xbox one.

Update 3:

Spencer states that he believes two can be playing at the same time. When the console comes out and you can play two at the same time, that will be awesome!

    Because of the restrictions. I'm glad that there's more xbox one people other than me. The consoles arnt even out out and all ps4 fan boys are whining about it because there jealous of our console. We have better online, cheaper games and a far better system. And to all the ps4 fan boys YOU WON ROUND 1 there's still more you idiots. We have about four rounds the specs, games, online and efficiency. Also ps4 have to pay for online and still no party chat (fail)

    Stop reposting this. Your wrong anyways. You can't play the same game as your friend at the same time as him. Or whenever someone elae on his list of 10 friends. Get your facts straight kid. PS4 is more powerful and everything.

    EDIT: You gave me a picture? Anyone can make a picture, and if they did make that whole picture why is there curse words in there? Xbox wouldn't do especially if there aiming for a family gaming system.

    and look at your second link 4th paragaph, its somewhere around there. it says "Spencer is pressed upon the issue whether two people can play the same shared game at the same time, stating that he believes that is the case. The policy stated above, however, only says "any one of your family members can be playing from your shared library at a given time," which sounds like it's one at a time."

    explain that?

    EDIT: He doesnt seem so sure, it still doesnt seem worth it. I hear PS4 is doing the same, and if thats true, then PS4 has won, even this may not help as much as you want it to be, im sorry, but just face it. Xbox One is the death of xbox. Xbox Shareing doesnt seem as promising as you make it sound.

    Source(s): I actually read your links. Unlike you did.

    I am an Xbox fanboy. But I'm looking more at the PS4. Why? Because the Xbox one is definitely a huge improvement, but the benefits and new innovations are less than the drawbacks. And the Xbox was made as less of a GAMER console and more of a "little bit of everything" console. But not in a good way. They basically made the graphics better, and made it so you could hook up your cable box to it. Also you have to check in every 24 hours in order to play games. The designers stopped caring about what it's supposed to be about, the gamers. They made it more about having more features.

    The PS4 is the GAMER console. Everything they did to the console and controller was to enhance the experience for the gamer.

    Even though it sounds like I bashed the Xbox quite a bit, I'm

    Pretty pumped for it. I still don't know which I want to get.
