Interestingly, I also spoke to a Sony source elsewhere at the event this evening who told me that the anti used-game patent discovered last month was actually nothing to do with PlayStation 4 at all.
The patent suggested that discs would come branded with a contactless tag that could be recognised and read by your console, which would then bind it to you and prevent you from selling it on.
I didn't put it in the OP because the source is unnamed. Therefor it's credibility isn't nearly as high as the rest of the quotes. However, I doubt eurogamer would make that up and it is definatly more credible then posters on this forum
