    I believe you said they only confirmed the time limit to be false...

    Now why would they debunk one part of the pastebin article and not the rest if it wasn't true?

    Logic...

      Someone asked on Microsofts twitter account if the plan for game sharing was to limit the amount of time one is able to play. MS simply said it wasn't.

        So did they debunk the article or answer a question about a segment of it?

            Kind of hard to believe anything they say after they lied about the XB1 being built around the DRM and connection and not being able to "flip a switch" on it.

              Where'd they say that? I'm not disputing it, I just want to read about it.

                How is that legit when this was considered not true from Xbox Support?

                      Technically it doesn't apply anymore but was considered false.

                        Anyone know if there is any info out about turning on/off voice commands from kinect with your voice? Like some keyword that makes it start listening for a command?

                            Too busy reconstructing his madden league now that people will actually have to own the game to play it.

                              Yeah, their answers on Twitter have been so accurate and consistent to this point, so I would definitely believe that.

                              Oh, WHERE'S THE LINK?!?

                                Here is a known industry insider "CBoaT" confirming it was a 60* minute trial on some forum. From here.

                                Thought this was a good comment from that reddit link about it, along the lines of Houston's point:
                                People think they were forced to pull this feature since they cancelled DRM....no. They pulled the feature because they KNEW it'd be the last straw, the final nail in the coffin when people discovered this bait & switch BULLSHIT.

                                Microsoft simply isn't willing to be honest with consumers. You know why they had such a hard time explaining this feature to consumers? It's not because it's extremely complex. It's because they're too nervous to tell the truth - they would rather you just buy the machine then find out everything you dislike about it, rather than the other way around.
                                Hilarious that Primetime ever thought that he'd be able to split costs of games with this feature, when that is exactly opposite of why MS was implementing the feature in the first place.
