Backlash over Xbox pre-owned games

Microsoft faces a backlash from some gamers after it emerged the company may charge a fee to play pre-owned games on its new Xbox One console. It would also mean borrowing a game from a friend will require a payment to play, possibly the full price. Microsoft has said gamers will be able to trade their used games online - but refused to give more details. Microsoft's director of programming, Larry Hryb, admitted there had been some "confusion" around the policy. An official Xbox sport account on Twitter had initially told fans that no fee would be needed for used games, but a later comment from Mr Hryb sought to clarify the situation. He wrote on his blog: "While there have been many potential scenarios discussed, today we have only confirmed that we designed Xbox One to enable our customers to trade in and resell games at retail. Please turn on JavaScript. Media requires JavaScript to play. //
