Microsoft has announced that you won't be able to use your real name online when Xbox One launches, despite previously saying that this would be one of the new features available on Xbox Live when the console releases.
"While real identities continue to be part of our plans for the experience on Xbox One, at launch, customers will continue to search for friends using their Gamertags," a spokesperson explained. "Our teams are working hard to deliver a quality experience for Xbox One. This means prioritizing some features and sometimes postponing others for a later update."

Well this is a bummer, especially considering that the PS4 will have the feature at launch. I really like the idea and have been clamoring for it to come to 360 for years and so was very excited when it was first announced. I guess better late than never.
