You get more choices - you actually get to choose to leave the disc at home if you desire and if your friend has a decent internet connection. I downloaded a full title two days ago from XBL (Fable 3, 5.6 GB) and it was really quick.
And per #3, if that friend wants to play the game later, simply put them on your 'Family List' (they don't have to be 'family') and share your game library with them.
You still have that option with the Xbox One, whether you buy the disc or use the digital delivery system. Tell me how you're losing choice, here. |
All your points are immediately nullified when said buddy has his gaming center in the basement with no internet access. I don't think Microsoft realizes just how many people have similar setups, where getting a wired internet connection or stable wifi in certain areas of a home is too cost prohibitive
