There are a few reasons why your Xbox One might not be loading game discs. We’re just going to have to sit tight and see what happens.Fix: Xbox One won’t Load Game Disc Why does this happen? A patent application is not a product announcement, so there’s no guarantee that Microsoft will roll out a new kind of disc-to-digital conversion system. Microsoft tried that once, and trying it again would only prove to ruin the goodwill its accumulated over the past several years.īut at the moment this sort of discussion is purely hypothetical. But that conversion shouldn’t compromise the functionality of the physical copy in the process. Games take up the same space on the SSD, no matter how you got them. But I can admit that swapping out discs can be kind of a pain, and the option to convert them to digital titles is quite appealing. I still prefer to buy games on disc, which offers better flexibility on where I buy and how much I pay. Personally I like this idea, provided Microsoft implements it properly. An Xbox One can read discs from across all four Xbox generations, after all. It’s also not clear whether this system would require you to buy a stand-alone disc drive, or if any Xbox console capable of reading a disc could be used to verify the game. It may have been nine years since that backlash, but it’s unlikely player attitudes have changed that much. Mass outcry from fans, and come casual trolling from PlayStation, meant these plans were quickly scrapped (opens in new tab). Once a game was installed, the Xbox One's system was designed to let gamers play their games without a disc - but at the cost of being able to freely trade and sell their games without going through Microsoft-approved channels. Microsoft did announce plans to crack down on the pre-owned game market back in 2013, after all, in the run up to the launch of the Xbox One.
We also need to know whether a single disc can be authenticated more than once - because it could make purchasing pre-owned discs a pretty risky endeavor. Can you re-download your converted titles again whenever you see fit, or will you have to go through the verification process a second time? This is something people would have to know, in case they ever decide to dispose of their older discs. Say, for instance, you have to delete some games to free up storage space - a very real possibility with the Series S’s 512GB SSD.
