Roll Tide Wire. In short, Xbox One owners won't be required to check in to the internet every 24 hours to play their games and used games will work on the system as they did on Xbox There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox Prior to Microsoft's update to its Xbox One policies, reports from Giant Bomb and What Hi Fi heralded a "reversal" of the next-gen system's policies, hinting at an across-the-board change.
Just prior to E3 , Microsoft outlined its policies for Xbox One games, explaining that the console would require an online check-in at least every 24 hours to authenticate ownership of video game software.
Failing to authenticate game software would render the game unplayable, even for offline, single-player games. Microsoft explained that online requirements for Xbox One games would enable the offloading of certain computations to the cloud.
Microsoft also outlined a vague used games policy , saying that restrictions on used games would be left up to publishers. You could lend your disc to a friend, but they would only be able to play the game if they were signed into your account, or if they paid full retail price for the game themselves. Logically, that means that if you buy a pre-owned disc from GameStop or another video game store, you could use it to install the game on your machine but would have to pay full retail price in order to access it.
That means it would technically be possible to play a used game on the Xbox One - but you'd have to pay the combined cost of the used game disc along with the full retail price for the game, making it more expensive to play a used game than a new one. This is at odds with the recent response given by GameStop president Tony Bartel, who told Games Industry that Microsoft has promised to support used games, though he admitted that GameStop is letting Microsoft " take the lead " on the issue.
Microsoft's Director of Programming, Larry Hryb, attempted to clear up the matter in a statement on his blog , which confirmed that you will only be able to play your game at a friend's house so long as you're signed into your own account. He did not deny the fee for activating used games, and could not explain how used games and trade-ins would work with the console. Though he mentioned the ability to trade or resell games, he did not go into details about exactly how the Xbox One will work with games that have been resold.
