| J_Allard said: Exactly what DRM do publishers control on Xbone that they cannot control on PS4? I am taking this news to mean that the only real DRM the Xbone will have is the daily check in. I can't see 3rd party companies loading up Xbone games with DRM and not PS4. And I can't see every publisher using DRM. |
Games on the XboxOne will not play if you havent logged in within 24 hours... if that isnt enough without any 3rd Party DRM... then i dont know what to say.
On the Xbox MS has (apparently but its unclear how it would actually work), a way of controlling the game and its serial, it cannot be played via CD. You must use MS's system to transfer serials/games.
This is *Not* the same as PS4, and shows how MS have led the way to implement console based DRM, which I guess some publishers have agreed on. Without these things built into the actual console, its very difficult to implement (and costly) individually.
