    There have been loads of Xbox One issues going around over the weekend the major story here is that about 150 people received there consoles early from Target and all of them have been banned.

    You can read more on that story from Bullet on this link.

    This story broke out on Twitter after the same user that got banned Moonlightswarmi has now tweeted he can't play Call Of Duty Ghosts Offline at all !

    Word of the issue spread to NeoGAF and Microsoft’s Albert Penello took to the boards to address concerns over offline play restrictions.

    He said,

    “We still have two more weeks before launch – the console is in a pre-release state. We are doing regular updates – I personally took one a few minutes before he posted. His build is now old. This is why we were saying we didn’t want people on early – it’s not done yet.

    This behavior is only because we are in pre-release. When we launch, console will work exactly as you expect today on 360. For sure this has nothing to do with requiring a connection.

    There is no “DRM removal” in the Day One update because none of the consoles were ever built with that stuff in it. This also has nothing to do with COD.

    The Day One update just brings the SW up to date with the latest versions vs. what’s on the box. But there is no 24 check in, that’s for sure.”

    Time will tell if there are offline restrictions in place, but given Microsoft repeated affirmation that there aren’t, it seems like there should be no problem come launch.

    What do you think?

    This might cause me to swap to PS4, and then my Xbox will be tied to a stick, causing it to become a swingable weapon, home defense :heyy:
