EA upset with Nintendo for not blocking used games? Possible pressure from EA for Sony to follow?

No one ever said you couldn't "play" used games... just that there will be a fee associated with it. For MS that fee (at this time of understanding) is 100% on all games. For Sony its "up to the (individual) publishers".

How did so many people miss this tidbit that was prominent on many sites just after the feb 20th event?

And no where has that fee been confirmed!, just because Sony is leaving it up to the publisher does not mean they will impliment it. And even Microsoft has stated it is not finished about their xboxlive network features for xbox one yet.

And

because Microsoft may do it, does not mean Sony will. How many year's have people claimed that Sony would have no other choice to move playstation Network to a required Paid service..and yet its still free, an not required. Sony has Playstation+ and Playstation Home both generating Income!
