Xbox One terms of service prevent class-action suits

So MS copies Sony in this anti-consumer policy... and everyone forgets Sony did it first and keeps hating MS.

...Starting to think a lot of this is about "who" rather than "what".

And THAT is why the PC will always be the best platform for us gamers. Or at the very least, the most free. Even Valve's mighty Steam cannot force these ridiculous oppressive terms upon me. I can simply say, hell no! And y'all should too.

MS sucks

lol more bs from the famed US MS

heres a theory. What if when you buy a game for the XBOX ONE , the game ISNT ON THE DISC? what if the game is just stored on the cloud and all you do is activate it with a $60 game disc and it installs from the cloud onto your console. hence the reason why you have to deactivate it from your account when you sell it because the disc is actually empty.

LMAO Microsoft Must've been Hopped on on LSD when they made this User Terms Of Service

and to make matters worse check out the link below on how much of an A**hat MAJOR nelson made of himself

Dude: You know what's really cool guys?

Other Dudes: What?

Dude: Not being able to play your games whenever you want.

Other Dudes: What the hell is wrong with this guy?

Other Dudes: Are you on drugs?

Dude: No!

The above terms of service forbidding lawsuits are weak and non-binding. It would be like making an automobile, have you sign a contract preventing lawsuits, and then trying to stop lawsuits when the new car is a rollover king. Law of the land, supersedes any future contract trying to prevent it.

If say MS Xone implements tech that tries to over ride 'first use law' then a class action lawsuit will surely arise, unfortunately, it will probably end in a settlement rather then change in business practices.

It doesn't matter what terms of service any of them make for the simple reason that the law supersedes any of them. Any terms of service in conflict with the law becomes null and void in any court of justice and can be easily overturned.

Looks like Xboxers will have to wear their suits without any class.

If your friend is playing and he thinks they should be sued and he hasent accepted the terms and conditions then can't he sue them

Unconstitutional.

haha oh this is good i bet sometime next year there will be something on the news XBOX STOPS MURDERER or CATCHES DRUG DEALER within the hour a fire burns atop your local hill and all the people who actually bought this joke in a box lined up to throw there xbox on it lol

lol. why are fanboys on here bashing microsoft for something almost every media company uses? so much random, unrelated crap.

Don't get XBoned. Think outside the box.

Im pretty sure they are stressing this since they are prolly helping the NSA by placing a camera in everyone's living room (no need for hackers anymore when they can just tune in lol)

This isn't new news. Why is this being brought to everyone's attention now?

You can still sue them if they cause harm, and I do believe mental stress is a type of harm that courts have allowed!

To all the people who think that owning what you buy is an archaic concept, post your addresses so that we, the people that do believe in CONSUMER RIGHTS, can come take all your shit from you and leave you with nothing. You obviously don't want to own anything, so cough up the addresses and belongings.

those lucky fools at microsoft. if it weren't for those terms of service.

This should be illegal.

The asinine banter being thrown around about Xbox one is indicative and reflective of the playstation demographic, childish.

Microsoft is smart enough to try covering their asses from getting sued?
You don't say!
