Well Microsoft, enjoy losing this gen (next Xbox info inside)

Not sure if it's accurate, but if it is... well, it's worrying. Requiring an internet connection to play games? Installing all games onto the hard drive and apparently making it impossible to play used games?

I think Microsoft may well have shot themselves in the head here. Heck, even the PS4 doesn't require the above...

I also hear fears about the Kinect camera system or something, but I won't comment on that since they seem like overblown fears. Still, is anyone else not a fan of this whole idea and worried about the direction of the video game industry with stuff like this?

I half-expect Microsoft to charge players a monthly fee to play on their Xbox, even if it is single player.

Why not? The PS3 did the same thing. look up apocalyps3 online. I had that error and it was horrible. You can't even play single player Call of Duty without being hooked to the net.
