Is Xbox One 'Game Over' For GameStop? [View article]
There is a rumor floating that the Xbox One may have a low price tag in hopes of making their money off content. That may not be true at all, of course, and may have a $600 price tag for all we know at this point.
As for PS4, the PS3 was famously expensive for Sony so I can't see how they will keep a price tag down for the PS4. Gaming is going to get even more expensive.
They are probably looking at something like the iPad (or other tablets) going for such a high price and thinking "But ours is so much better so we can justify a high price!"

Not to feed too much into conspiracy theory but did anyone notice that EA got a lot of facetime at the Xbox One reveal? I found the following from this article http://bit.ly/10TEQSf :
"The lack of concrete details adds to the uncertainty about Microsoft's plans. EA discontinued its controversial Online Pass just days before its significant role in the Xbox One announcement. The system allowed EA to profit from second-hand game sales using a form of DRM restricting multiplayer and online functionality without a specific EA code. If that code had already been used, another one would need to be purchased for around $10. "
Does anyone think that Microsoft liked EA's idea and are going to implement something like it for XBox One (which is why EA cancelled theirs)?

"should you choose to play your game at your friend’s house, there is no fee to play that game while you are signed in to your profile."
Does this imply there will be a fee if not signed in?
I've also heard that you may have to uninstall the game while logged in so you can trade in. But, how would the game know if you are taking the uninstalled game to a friend's house or GameStop?
This all does sound like the birth pangs of Microsoft trying to get more money from the second hand market which, of course, is not good for places like GameStop.

When looking for a large short % as a reason to buy, be warned. Sometimes they may be there for a reason and not willing to go anywhere, for any reason. Look at THQ.

You are calling a 200% rise in share price with an anemic slate of game releases for Majesco? I wish you luck with your long position but I disagree that the price will get there without being bought out or a reverse split. There is simply not enough products in the pipeline to get them there alone.

Thanks for the comment. I don't really have an exact target price. It is more of a range. Seeing as how the stock price has gone up wildly recently (about 75%+ since this article alone!), my guess is to watch for a pop over $4 but be warned that a very fast rise may mean a quick drop.
Longer term, I'd like to see the price level off in the $4 - $6 area if there are orders and/or news to back up the move.

Thanks for the comment. There is a message board on yahoo for this. The trick is to go to another stock message board on yahoo and then enter RVLT in the search box for message boards. Hope that helps.

That's a great question. The funny thing is the states wanting to pursue this are not all republican or democratic heavy. The early feeling is it is not a party problem and because of that, if any national legalization talk begins, it may not be met with a lot of resistance.
But I'd first look at the states themselves. As more states approve online gambling, there will be more national talk. I'll take a guess and say by about the 6th or 7th state, the US government will realize they are missing out on a lot of revenue and jump in to "help."
