Xbox Support worker Phil replied: "The Xbox One will only be available in the 21 launch countries."

Hallahan responded: "But say someone from Poland, not listed, imports it from the UK. Will they be able to play disc-based games?"

Phil answered: "They would want to wait until the console is available in their region."


Just thinking this through, the hardware and asking of permission to play the games seems to be country specific. Importing it from another country will not work. And games are locked to your account.

So what happens if you move and change countries? You can't play any of the games on your account with your current machine? You have to buy a new system for your new country?
Correct me if I am wrong but isn't that the case now with 360 since it is regional? That's nothing new really, but I'm not sure about PS3. I know PS4 is not locked to your region.
