I could live with it if they would take on the Steam model and drop prices appropriately over time AND have the occasional kick ass sale.

The future of gaming is "pay for play".

Facebook has infected the mainstream gaming industry, make no mistake about it.

When EA sees a HALF MILLION people playing Farmville EACH AND EVERY DAY, they want a piece.

my kid just experienced his first online pass game. We rented Ratchet and Clank All for One. He was pissed when he couldn't go online with it. Told him there is no way I am paying for a $10 pass for a rental.

The one I really hated hearing about was a Tiger Woods golf game from a year or so ago. They forced you to buy career mode courses, so even if you bought the game new, you had to pay more to play the complete game.

What they want is irrelevant in the end. EA and Activision wanting it just makes it an easier sell.

This really screams as a license to fleece GameStop to me.

How do you figure that? EA, Activision, and Take Two control something like 85% of the game distribution industry. What they WANT is what we will GET.

And it goes much, much more deep than just digging at Gamestop. This will essentially kill rentals, used games, and any other revenue stream that doesn't flow directly to them and the console manufacturers.

EA has been looking at Zynga and Playfish - there's a reason they payed $750 MILLION for PopCap games.

The future of gaming is being nickeled and dimed to death...

According to an article on Mashable, a 56-page document from Microsoft was released regarding the highly rumored Xbox 720.
So what all do we know about the next-gen Xbox?

Life cycle of the new Xbox will be 10 years
1080p output and native 3D
Blu-ray player
SmartGlass

A release date possibly for 2013 with a price tag of $299

A new concept was also released. Under the name Project Fortaleza, these are glasses. These glasses will be able to connect to Wi-Fi,* incorporate augmented reality in gaming and should be releasing around 2014. There are no specifics available regarding these glasses.
Based upon the design images leaked it looks like the Xbox 720 may look like more of a DVD player than the Xbox 360s we know now.

I like the 10 year life span and including a blu-ray player, I figured if they tried to move away from discs for games they wouldn't include a blu-ray player. The price point seems right as well.

I call BS on the price. There is no way they will open up at $299 even on the base model.

Of course they will. They make so much ****ing money after it is in your living room.

They are having you pay for a machine that opens up countless ways to create more revenue.

Looks like it will be a kick ass machine.

Exactly this. Everyone is going with the Apple/Amazon model now, and why not.
