This was good news, looks like my friends and I can continue into Halo without worry, now all I'm going to do is wait for a price drop. 
This will happen in the future, yeah it is still hard to believe they thought they should do that but reversing the decision was good, this soon after E3 too. They did think the world was ready for a pure digital market console but its not at there yet. I am ticked off about this, but now all the craziness will stop. Its been one week, 5 months to go till the thing launches. I mean didn't sony have another issue like this back in 2006 with the PS3? $500 was the cheaper not as good PS3 at launch, the good one costed $600. People yelled at Sony to lower the price but they kept it to launch and it costed them a bit of time, they had to spend some time catching up. Now this stuff if MS kept the X1 connection and used game issue, it would really hurt them, fixing this early is the best turnaround for them, they cannot counter Sony directly but they have patched their wounds. MS will still be playing catchup but there were people who would buy it regardless, but now guess I can safety say I can stick to Xbox one without fear of these issues, I was torn between X1 and a PS4, but for me it was also a matter of what my friends played on, we mainly played on the 360 and fooled around in custom games like in Halo 3 reach and 4, but we played a lot more too. Now I am happy these days can continue. Still not getting it this year, I'll wait till next year at least in june before getting one, mainly I just want to see a price drop to at least $450. All I really see myself getting this year is stuff for well the wii u like Rayman legends, DK tropical freeze, Pikmin 3 this august, maybe the mario 3d world one, and well obviously Zelda. Yes I have a wii u, but to me Nintendo just does its own thing while it watches MS, Sony, and the PC scrap with each other, its sitting there spectating eating popcorn. I mean hey, for all the flak Nintendo gets from gamers, they still have a mountain of money over the others in their console sales and still don't cause any issues with their players. Nintendo said this was their used game policy. "We try to make games we hope people have second thoughts about trading or selling, games that are just part of a long history that you can give away but other times you may soon come thinking that you did not want to, games that are in part just unique in one way or good to revisit weeks, months, or even years after you have not played them for a while." While it sounds dumb, it makes sense in a few ways. I actually have not traded in any nintendo 1st party games I got, they are just part of a collection i have come to enjoy building over the years.
