It's not Sony implementing this limitation. 

Sony is the one allowing PSN game copies to be played on multiple PSN accounts.

Capcom hates the idea and is implementing the online-only rule.

Hey does Nintendo allow copies to be used on multiple accounts/consoles, Galaki?

 

So, Capcom is being sneaky in this case, abusing the tool Sony provided.

It's not an online-only game and should not force people to have to be online to play.

They can't track/update stats when the connection is available, not required.

You're letting them get away with doing this, they'll eventually do it to everything else. By then, it would be too late for you to complain, when it does affect you.

 

Point me to an offline Nintendo game that requires you to be online?

I'm against Capcom doing it.  I do think publishers may have a point if they ask Sony to drop the number of PSN accounts that can access a game to 2-3 instead of 5, or something.

Your comparison is inapt because Final Fight isn't a "Sony game" and the requirement to be online is not instituted by Sony, it is instituted by Capcom.

Point me to a Nintendo game that allows 5 installs, is the point.  Sony allows it; Nintendo doesn't, right?  You brought up the Sony/Nintendo comparison, but this Capcom thing is an example of a very liberal/gamer friendly Sony policy, which Capcom dislikes and is moving to circumvent.  If Nintendo does allow multiple installs like Sony, ok, I wasn't aware, but then the two companies are on a par.  Your insinuation that Nintendo "better not pull a Sony like with Final Fight" (paraphrasing) is still dead in the water.  Sony allows 5 installs of PSN games.
