Terrorist, by the looks of it. So no need to worry, if there's one thing The Daily Mail likes more than evil gamers its terrorists.

The price is a placeholder at the moment. The Eurogamer interview with Phil Harrison today showed they weren't going to confirm any details on second hand until nearer release.
However, it will most likely be the same or near to the last gen launch prices (£300-£400) anyway.

The price and second hand game details haven't been confirmed yet, though.
£399 at Zavvi
This was the article I read regarding second hand games.
Suppose either of those details could change over the coming months, have to be honest though the Xbox One is not winning me over so far. Probably stick with the Xbox 360 for a bit longer, then consider a switch to PC gaming in the future.
Don't know about other people but our family does not have unlimited funds for what I consider to be luxuries in life, the Xbox One does not appear to be all that credit crunch friendly to me at first glance. Besides I'm still quite happy with the aging Xbox 360 if I'm honest, although that will probably change once its healthy online community starts to shift to the next generation of machines.

Who watched the Xbox One reveal then? Interesting stuff, but looks like we'll have to wait for E3 for anything major games-wise.
Mandatory install of all games, fee for used games (clearly no rentals either which will require buying games blind), forced use of Kinect (which is a fun gimmick which I use about once a year and its voice command system doesn't really work), no backwards compatibility with existing Xbox 360 games (which will mean yet another box under my TV) , looks clearly designed to evolve from a gaming machine to complete entertainment system (which I'm not really interested in unless it offers cheap access to BT Sport, which it won't) and at £400 it's quite expensive.
.....and it's ugly too!

Does that mean Freeola is officially better than EA? I think it does.
Yes pb, I think that it definitely does :¬)
