Regular checks? Lol... checking if you are a pirate. How sad.

Remove the DRM and support boot up from the disc. Its still able to play the game from the hard drive. Problem solved. But no, then you will lose control over everyone, Microsoft?

I like ass!

So what happens to my console 15 years down the road when there are no servers left supporting it? Becomes a brick along with all my games? I would like to know if I own my games or renting them.

@Redblaze27 Its how Sony talks. MS claims that even they support used games on the Xbox One, but they dont.

@DVONvX Unlike my ex girlfriend, Steam always takes me back.

@Redblaze27 Online for multiplayer yes. EA only got rid of online passes because they know that Microsoft and Sony made DRM on their consoles.

@Synthia @lyricalsoldierb Steam is great because of the deals. XBox Live has no deals. Its crap. You even have to pay to play online.

EA getting rid of activation codes probably means that Sony will ban used games as well. PC already ban used games, and EA doesnt support Nintendo.

Remember people, the Wii U has no DRM. NO BLOCKING. I hope the Wii U do well... I really hope so.

Have you guys read Eurogamer? Microsoft is "teaming up" with Gamestop, giving them exclusive rights to sell and buy used games. No more selling our games on Ebay. No more tradning, give away or loaning games from friends. Microsoft do this so Gamestop will keep supporting them.

Gamestop, if you are in your right mind, dont support Microsoft. Shut down while you can, and DONT sell this crappy system.
