@CloudStrife213:
LOL dude. Did you even read your links? What does the world third party mean to you?
It means that Sony would ALLOW DRM on their console, instead of disallowing it. Both companies have disallowed DRM on both consoles now. You act as if every publisher is first party.
Third-party publishers are the majority not first-party developers/publishers. It would be a feast to behold for EA, 2K, Activision, Ubisoft, and many other publishers if DRM were to push through on both consoles.
Actually it meant Sony wasn't setting policies for third parties. But I doubt you understand the difference. Anyway....thanks to MS arrogance and the backlash.....we don't have to worry about that issue this gen. Which is a GOOD THING. And if you don't think the E3 reaction to Sony's announcement didn't change that.....I can't help you.
That is what I meant when Sony would allow DRM on their console. They wouldn't set policies, hence DRM or non-DRM was allowed.
They wouldn't tell publishers whether to use DRM or to not use DRM, hence they allowed publishers to do what they see fit.
To put DRM or to not put DRM. And we all know what most publishers want. Although MS was stupid enough to consider putting DRM on all games unlike Sony who only allowed third-party publishers to do what they see fit. Maybe because of publisher pressure?
Not setting policies for DRM is allowing. You just proved my point.
