"I do not see widespread complaints that they can't sell these digitally purchased titles back to GameStop or on eBay. What makes getting a game via a plastic disk any different? Well, previously you needed a disk present in the system to verify you had the right to play a game purchased as a disk. That model is now completely gone."
If this modal was completely gone, why are we still using discs as the main source of medium for games on consoles?
I would never purchase a full priced game on PSN, if I don't like it, I can't do anything about it. I'm stuck with a £50 waste of digital crap.
"People are up in arms about the reported "fee" that will be required to play a game on someone else's system, but this outrage makes no sense under the new system."
You cannot lend the game to a friend. I discovered a few titles last generation via people lending me those game and I lent games to them too. In this new system, I wouldn't be able to do that, so if that existed before I would have never discovered the greatness that is Fallout 3, and for my mate Mass Effect. I wouldn't be able to take my game to a friends house either.
I can see the point the person in the opening post is making, the idea is that a 'licence' to own a game is no longer required in the medium it is supplied but by the user themselves. The user owns the licence of the copy of the game they are playing. Previous generations the licence was connected by the game media and could be played on any console, this new system would be the licence is the user and can be played on any system that user exists on.
But this whole article reads of elitist PC bullcrap. Not understanding the problems with a system designed to battle piracy. Written by a person who can afford new game after new game.
Hmm, pie.
