EDGE seems REALLY confident that Xbox 720 will block used games while PS4 will not.....

This could make publishers happy and lead to XBox exclusives which in turn could lead to most people flocking to PS4 instead of Xbox, therefore these exclusives on Xbox wouldn't sell well.

Basically this is a bad idea. Microsoft and Sony hold the power, if publishers keep demanding they block used games, they need to say NO.

...u really think so? Developers love the sound of this.  Interview some developers and ask what do they think of this instead of relying on your opinions.

Can't play used games on Xbox 720? I guess I'll buy a PS4.

That's what the general consumer will say unless Microsoft hides this "feature" from people and puts it in very small print.
