Registering to an account is mandatory for all games. Did you not know this? Well sorry to break it to you.

Third party publishers don't HAVE to impose anything because MS is already doing it lol. I don't know who got the idea that publishers would be programming in DRM into xb1 games when MS' entire strategy is to do it FOR THEM lol What are they going to port over? Nonexistant code?

Ten of your friends is unconfirmed. Depending on how this ten friends thing works out, I may actually buy an xb1, but I'll bet there are all kinds of limitations on this.

I was well aware of this.  And as I have stated multiple times in multiple threads, if that is simply a deal breaker for you, sobeit.  But by all accounts it appears that this allows for the enormous advantage of digital game sharing.  And whilst your assertion that the details of this are not confirmed are correct, multiple anecdotal sources are coagulating around the same idea.

And THAT is the ONLY DRM that Microsoft is imposing above and beyond Sony.  Any other grand chasm between their models of restrictiveness is entirely imagined, and a result of what was admittedly good PR by Sony designed to cover their plan to make you pay for online...just like Microsoft.
