I never knew that we are running out of over-the-air bandwidth...
Microsoft confirmed the list of countries in which the Xbox One will be available at launch. The company's official support Twitter account also stated that the system simply may not work, even with an account in an authorized territory.
@Crofna Unsupported countries would not have the full experience, and may not work. ^PC

One of those countries is Poland, home of CD Projekt Red, who is working on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for a multiplatform launch that includes Microsoft's console.
We spoke with Marcin Iwinski, co-founder and joint CEO of CD Projekt Red about the matter. "I was just in a restaurant and saw the list," Iwinski told us. "I was surprised, and I really hope that it isn't final. I think Polish gamers will speak out loud. From my perspective, it's a sad situation."
hehe MS is a client of hp.Since this thread is named "Meet the xbox one"...

I wonder is ANY footage they had shown ran on any xbox hardware.
For clarification, the xbox ones here are NOT development kits. They're just standard pc's with nvidia GPU's running the native code of xbone games ....before they're ported. It's funny how PC/PS4/Xbone can all run the same games if you had the source code and a few days to hook up a port.
I think this is also an intel cpu
Actually that's pretty awesome if you ask me because it means X1 games are pretty much PC games... with some hacks we could see great games being available for PC later which is always a positive thing.hehe MS is a client of hp.
that's a hp envy consumer desktop but i'm not sure
Wow. So if you mod one of your consoles, all your games are stolen from you? Looking forward to own +100 games on the One.
From what I can gather from Polish gamer community, the vast majority goes for PS4 anyway. Xbone has already lost in Poland, so it doesn't really matter much. I've yet to see a positive opinion about it on Polish forums and portals...
That move is not just stupid but it redefines the word "RETARDED".Wow. So if you mod one of your consoles, all your games are stolen from you? Looking forward to own +100 games on the One.
MS should at least be merciful and just brick the console.
Interesting post on Reddit about this at http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1gdo7y/microsoft_if_you_get_banned_you_forfeit_all_games/
Before you say "Don't get banned" be aware, Microsoft makes mistakes. Background Info: I have never broken ToS, never modified my console or any equipment, I spent hundreds or even thousands on Xbox products and DLC, never hacked, never did anything wrong.
Suddenly, about two years ago, I (along with hundreds or thousands of others) had our consoles banned. When I called the 1-800 support number, I was in a good mood, we would clear this up and have a good laugh. Instead a I got a rep who talked down to me like I was a lying piece of scum as he told me "I am very sorry, I cannot tell you why you were banned, but I assure you, we do not make mistakes, and investigation was performed and we are 100% certain you deserved to be banned".
I called back several times, contacted through email, spoke to managers and the answer was the same every-freaking-time, they would not tell me why I was banned, only that they knew I was guilty. When I insisted I never broke any rules they basically called me a liar, but WOULD NOT tell me what I was accused of doing. One manager told me that the only way they would reveal why I was banned would be to get a court order from a judge, and even then it wasn't likely.
So I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau telling my story, some time passed, it was about 9 months after I was banned that I came home from work to find my Xbox was unbanned. A Microsoft rep gave me a call and basically told me there was some kind of error in the system, and they needed me to mail in my console, along with a list of games and they would replace it all and give me a year of Gold for free. Of course I did it, expecting a free upgrade to slim I got a crappy refurb replacement and all my saves were corrupted..., but when I asked them to also refund/replace my wifes wasted 9 months of Live they said no.
Sooo yeah, I don't trust that company. To this day I have no idea what this "error" was that got my console banned, but I will never forget the disdain and animosity that the reps provided me when I tried to get help.
