The new XBox must connect to the home Microsoft server at least once every 24 hours through the internet. It can only be played in the region of your home account. Games will also be region locked. So our forward deployed troops, those serving on ships, etc. will be unable to relax in their downtime with the latest XBox games. The XBox just won't work.
The military protects our freedom -- including the freedom to play XBox. It protects Bill Gates' ability to make insane amounts of money. In return, they get cut off from the things they enjoy because Gates wants a couple more dollars. I am sure there is a workaround that can be done for the military only. Tell Bill Gates to get his programmers on it ASAP.
