Great, 'entitlement', there we go. It was only a matter of time before you spouted it. You know very well this is about used games DRM and not DRM that prevents piracy. I've already made my statements to counter you, so we'll leave it at this. Anyone who's really done their research knows what's true and what's not. 5

Ah, so you advocate used games DRM and the added control over consumers that comes with it. Gotcha. You typed a whole lot of words to say that. Sorry, but if that's what it takes to keep this industry afloat, I'd rather see it burn. Developers and pubs don't deserve a penny more than the first sale of a game as far as

It can be argued, but that doesn't mean it's right. Are you arguing for what's right, or are you just playing devil's advocate? I already know both sides of this debate.

"only due to the interpretation of the layman" Man, that's the point right there. There shouldn't be any of this 'well it's the customer's fault for misinterpreting our misleading advertising'. Don't blame the consumers for this, because they aren't the ones at fault. This is a battle over ownership, and no amount of

Thank you. Too many people making assumptions and trying to pass them off as true statements because...I have no idea why. What does one stand to gain by making such a bold assumption like that? It feels like they're trying to convince themselves more than anyone else.

Here's where the BIG fight over all this is happening: license vs ownership. In Europe this battle is raging as well, but the law has been written in favor of consumers so that MS can't pull what they're doing to the US market. As for the USA, the ruling of Vernor vs Autodesk completely stomped all over the First Sale

It's really a video that only GAF users and people who lurk NeoGAF would find entertaining. Most internet sites hate the place because of it's "ivory tower" status thanks to its notorious account confirmation time. That and its community can be very opinionated on things, and to wit it has industry execs and employees

try using your ISP email or your .edu email. The site doesn't accept free emails like gmail and hotmail.

That holds for many people at NeoGAF. However, there are also many level headed people, like here. I think most people tend to see communities for their negative side more than their positive. For instance, many sites view Kotaku as a shithole, but having been a reader of this site and follower of the community for a

Ignoring the PS4 userbase just to get profit off used games...for a brand new system that won't have a bustling used games market in the first place, makes absolutely no sense, so there's no way they'd stop developing for PS4 for such a trivial reason. EA is huge, but they have shareholders to appease. Throwing their

EA doesn't have that much power. They also do have games coming out for Wii U - it just seems their focus is on the Xbox One. They'd be completely stupid to ignore the PS4, DRM or not.

If it works essentially the same as this gen (online pass-type deal optional per publisher, no change to buy/sell/trade used games freely as before) then there's no problem. That's the same type of DRM that's being used now, only on a system level. It's the bits about being online once every 24 hours and only being

The hope currently is that they're not going to use DRM, which they stand to gain the most PR from on-stage. If they are using DRM, then they'd best prepare themselves for a firestorm worse than Microsoft's Xbox One reveal.

Everyone's attention will be focused on Sony at their conference, so by revealing their plans there they'll gain the most PR.

I'm not sure if TB said anything after that exchange to Boyes, but he's continued to attack people who tweet him with the #PS4NoDRM hashtag, or question him about used games.

I'd like to clarify something about TotalBiscuit. I know it's slightly off-topic, but...

Yep, he's that guy. He made that video specifically to spite the twitter movement, because people kept arguing with him over Twitter and he got defensive.

Adam Boyes works for Sony.

Have you thought about seeing a doctor?

They'd certainly have balls if they did. We'd be stomping all over them, but yeah.
