Microsoft can try to spin this until they are blue in the face that it's not as bad as it seems, but it's total bullshit.
Sony won this war, but it isn't even a war. Microsoft commited suicide(can redeem themselves and i'll explain later) Sony has NO RESTRICTIONS on how you use your games. Trade, sell, or give away games. There is no forced online activity for the console. It's the same feature set as the 360 and ps3, and well every console ever created. It's really ashame that microsoft has pushed DRM to the point that not having DRM(that's never exisited before)is a sellable feature? Not only that but trying to convince themselves that it could even win a console war.
Sony has more exclusives than Microsoft has launhing titles....... Here is a misconception though, developers on sony have the option to use DRM(which is basically how it is now) EA most notably pushes the limit on this shit now. If you're publishing for the ps4, you'd be a fool to try to publish a game with some sort of DRM on it after the backlash from microsoft. The ps4 gives you an option to publish drm games, the xbox one givers you NO option. EVERY disc you put into the system has to conform to their restrictive policies.
Here is something that xbox is trying to sell us now, they are giving you 2 free games a month for their xbox live service. NEWS FLASH playstation plus has been doing this already (15 FREE GAMES last month) NOT ONLY is it cheaper but they give you more games, and guess what WWEFORUMS it's less restrictive! You ONLY need playsation plus on ps4, for online multiplayer gaming. YOU DON'T need it for subscriptions to netflix, flixter, whatever the hell app you sink your money into. MICROSOFT though, restrictions! You have to have gold to watch something you already pay for, awesome logic.
The only thing Microsoft can do(and i believe it will happen, but not right away) Is remove these awful restrictions on their system, but it will only happen once we all BUY a ps4. Microsoft will ultimately do what will make them the most money, but guess what this christmas season you will see SONY beat the bricks off of Microsoft. Such a shame for a guy that has loved xbox since the original.
