Microsoft isn't prepared to share how used games on Xbox One will be handled – which had adverse effects on retailer GameStop's stock price yesterday – but the company is definitely going to be in the market."We understand the secondary market is incredibly important today in the current generation. It will be incredibly important in the next generation," Phil Spencer, Microsoft Corporate VP of Microsoft Studios, said in an interview with us. "I love the fact that my identity, my saves and my content can go with me to any console I move to. The ability to have me and my content save in the cloud who I am, and I can move around, that obviously requires some capability to know what content you own, associated with you and how you move."He also danced around the always-online issue, something that already caused one public firing at Microsoft."We also understand that sometime people's internet goes down and I shouldn't stop watching a movie or stop playing a single-player game when that happens. We'll support a tolerance where we can," he noted, but we were seeking specifics on how long the console could be offline. "You asked about the boundaries, how long will that work? I'll just tell you we don't know yet. We'll tell you when we have the answer and we can tell everybody. But we understand that secondary market is important to the ecosystem, no doubt."Asked about the game trading that Microsoft previously mentioned, Spencer said, "Yeah, these are some of the specifics... honestly, I'm not really dodging, I | | |

The PS4 edition of EA Sports' flagship title FIFA 14 will include the popular Ultimate Team mode, EA has confirmed to CVG.A statement made by Andrew Wilson on Tuesday suggested that the feature would be exclusive to Microsoft's divisive next-gen console, Xbox One. But an EA representative has since told CVG that "Ultimate Team is being developed for both Xbox One and PS4".EA previously revealed it had netted $108 million in additional revenue from the Ultimate Team mode in FIFA 12, which allows players to trade football stars online. With FIFA 13, EA recorded a 61 per cent growth in total Ultimate Team players.Xbox One will carry some exclusive Ultimate Team features, which remain unannounced. Speculation among fans is the Xbox game will include a unique set of player trading cards, or an increased volume of one-off cards, like the recent Player of the Season.FIFA 14 on next-gen consoles will debut the new Ignite Engine, said to boast more than 1000 new animations, a fifth of which are dedicated to celebrating goals.

Microsoft says it's bringing the newly unveiled next-gen Kinect to PC as well as the Xbox One. The company disclosed its plans to Polygon and Shacknews. Microsoft Corporate VP of Interactive Entertainment Business Ben Kilgore told Polygon the device will come to PC "at some point down the line," while Kinect Program Manager Scott Evans told Shacknews Microsoft will have "more information soon."The new Kinect features a 1080P HD RGB camera, 30 FPS color, Time of Flight technology, and microphone arrays. It has a greater sense of depth and field of view compared to the original Kinect, and thanks to infrared tech it can see in the dark. Microsoft showed us how the sensor can track two player profiles, each tied to a controller, and also demonstrated how it can estimate players' heart rates.Each Xbox One ships with the device. The console launches later this year.
