both preferrably, but are you positive about that not reading from disc thing? So I'll still have to have the disc in but it will play a digital version? |
It sounds like its one to one with the rumors of no used gaming. I'm betting that MSony have both devised (from pressure of publishers) to have a unique key-encoding per disc to be connected to a device/user. Once the game is installed the disc is only needed if you need to reinstall.
Otherwise, why force full install? I think it would be worthless to still require disc in drive if none of the assets from the disc are needed. Keep in mind all three companies are using bluray discs that have the meta-data areas on disc, even if Nintendo isn't allowing movie playback. 3rd parties could still use the same encoded keys on all 3 consoles, but of course Nintendo's wouldn't install the game, just track the key.
In this route, they could then enforce no used games as they see if that key has been registered upon installation from the disc.
