this feature is pretty sweet, who's gonna share their games with me?
Unattributed Quote:
only one person can be playing the shared copy of a single game at any given time.
So much for this being better than disks for boosting, I guess.
still can play other people's games tho which is good

That's pretty sweet, if that's the case we should start a group of ten people on here and someone can set up a paypal account and basically the ten people in the group can split the cost of games, it could be like a smaller waffle order group type style, when one person is done with the game the next person plays on the list and so on, that would make games really cheap, and we could put games up to a vote within the group to see whether we purchase or not. lol and we wouldn't have to have all of us in the same group I could have one person on the list and as long as that person has the next person on his family list it could just get passed along. Although now that I think about it that might not work cuz then people could just pass games to whoever on and on and on, the share a game thing probably only goes one way huh? lol well it as worth a thought so much for my idea haha

As long as the ten people can be removed and new people added, I have no problem sharing the games I buy with anyone.
I sense this is only going to cause me grief. "Hey bro can you share ______ with me? Lemme get in on your family group" is going to be everyone's favorite sentence, especially my co-workers.

Yep. Plus it kills the buzz I had for having my own household playing the same game on multiple consoles.
My son is "too old" to play Halo with me anymore, so when we got Halo 4, we basically took turns playing it. I'm fine with him not playing with me, but it's a bummer we won't be able to play Halo 5 on separate consoles at the same time. Though I suppose that's no different than now. At least we won't have to constantly swap the disc back and forth with the new system

Yeah, I hate broke ass people.
If you're getting all excited for this console that is going to try to kill used games, have some balls and stick with your "it doesn't affect me, I buy all my games new" stance and don't mooch off your friends.

Maybe we can do a lottery on who gets to share Miniogers copy of "My Horse and Me 3".

Lmao, I'll start taking applications to join my family. Due with the application is a non-refundable $50 fee. For those who receive interviews, there will be an additional $100 fee, $50 of which will be refunded if you are not selected.
Thank you in advance for applying and please remember to always choose Air Minioger.

His whole argument is based on the assumption Xbox games will be cheaper then PS4 games due to it being digital. I HIGHLY doubt this will be a reality. As an avid collector of video games a good old fashioned physical copy is a necessity.

that's not his whole argument, but he did bring up a bunch of valid points.
and digital is almost (95%) of the time cheaper.

No it's not. Retailers do not like having a digital copy cheaper than what they sell it for. Name me one game on the xbox 360 that the digital copy was cheaper from release than the retail copy....
Edit: And on top of that just looking at Steam prices, Borderlands 2, Bioshock Infinite I can get the physical copy at least $10 cheaper than the digital copy. The other couple I looked at were the same for digital and physical....
