Microsoft has done a 180 and there are no longer the same restrictions on the Xbox One. The Xbox One no longer has to have a constant online connection. Gamers will not have to check in to Microsoft's servers ever day. Internet will only be required to set up the game console. Also, the restrictions of used games are no longer going to be in effect on the Xbox One. It is also said that the system may not be region locked. Microsoft has listened to the comments from people and changed its course of action to appeal to more people. This is definitely an improvement, but can it help enough at this point to beat the PlayStation 4? Let us know what you think.

Story of Torchlight:
Torchlight. A booming mining town that grew up around unbelievably rich veins of Ember, that rare ore with the power to enchant--or corrupt--everything it touches. It’s a powerful thing, and everyone knows power, well. Power can corrupt, too. You’ll set out into the nearby mountains and depths below to discover the full extent of Ember’s influence on the civilizations that have come before.

“This is our most ambitious game to date and we’re working very closely alongside The Farm 51 to make sure that Deadfall Adventures provides players with seamless action and puzzle-solving experience,” said Reinhard Pollice at Nordic Games. “Holding back the game’s release until September is the right decision for us to ensure that the content included offers the greatest value for players, which it certainly will.”
“Adding the new survival cooperation mode adds even more content to the game which is always going to be a bonus for players,” said Wojciech Pazdur Development Director at Farm 51. “The new mode will be both challenging and engaging and players will be able to jump straight into the game toget the best of the action.”
