So game discs are locked to gamer profile. Even if you did leave the disc at a friend's house, they can't play it.

That is definitely different to the current situation whereby anybody can play the game as long as they have the disc. Which is much more flexible and allows a healthy second-hand games market.

Due to this single limitation alone, I will not be buying an xbox one.

I wonder how many others will be similarly deterred by this "feature".

Even worse, if you have an Xbox One in the lounge and one in a bedroom, you have to use the same account to play the game on both, or buy two copies.

Game in the lounge then let your kids play in their room? Two copies!
