Get ready for Sony 1st party to not implement this, but the rest of 3rd parties will.

Anyways gives the Sony people a reason not to boycott the console now, but they'd better hold to their word and boycott the games that do require authentication.

I haven't bought an EA game in awhile.  ME3 probably and before that...probably a Madden.  I never made such a vow but unless I am absolutely positive a game will be good of course I will.  I won't be able to resell if I don't like it (which I do with most of my games cause I'm very selective about my permanent collection).  This policy will lead to less pre-orders and more dissatisfied customers before being reversed.

The thing is though now you can't lend those games out. Or do you mean permanent as in "no way I'm letting others touch these games".

I like to lend out my collection from time to time.
