PS4 Now requires PS+ for MULTIPLAYER!

It was def pretty sneaky.  I guess at this point, between the two companies, Sony looks like the lesser of two evils.  Now the question becomes, what happens if Microsoft responds by dropping all DRM related items....  HIGHLY unlikely, but what if.

Would make it more interesting.  Only 100 difference.  Both require you to pay for online play.  Neither would have DRM....  Right now DRM is the difference (and to me a big one).

Just seems like this gen will pan out the same way as last, with everyone justifying what Microsoft is doing.  By next gen, Sony will have full DRM too and Microsoft will find yet another way to get in your wallet and control it.  Microsoft keeps upping the profit ante.

Sony feels like the more inepted evil mastermind.

Ms: Pay us or no online play.

Sony: Wait wait wait, you mean we can CHARGE for online play? Why the hell didn't we do that! Lets do that on the next console!

Ms: No used games - draconic DRM to stifle game lending and rental.

Snoy: Damn you Microsoft! Why are you always one step ahead of us?!?? Minion! Next console we're implimenting No used games policy and DRM to boot!

You can bet on that.
