10 Mistakes That Microsoft Are Already Making With The Next Xbox

5. Used Games Block

Another big issue, especially since Sony have announced they won't be following this misguided principle with the PS4. The idea that Microsoft's new hardware will watermark games so they can only ever be used on one console is a travesty. Not only would this potentially render your game collection useless if your console breaks (even if it's all tied to an account this would still be an unnecessary pain), but it effectively kills the used games market for that system. Whilst this may be good for publishers, its effect on end users would breed a huge amount of resentment towards the platform.
