I don't want to support it either, but I can't pass up Naughty Dog, Sony Santa Monica, Guerilla Games, Quantic Dream.  I would say more, but this thread is not the place.

Seriously now Vita will be affected.

Please explain.

"I saw the installation, but where did microsft say you have to register the game."

You have to register all new games because if not then you can borrow the same disc to all your friends and they can play too.

The registration is how MS makes sure you don't borrow the same disc to 20 other users. The disc only works with the registered user.

"Once  again put yourself in the developers shoes.

I might sound corny, but what I am saying is reality. It is a business."

Please don't try to rationalize and accept this, this is bad for all consumers if you let them get away with this they will push you even more, you have alternatives in Nintendo and Sony like you said this is a business and the competition are a good alternative which doesn't use this anti consumer restrictions. I all for making this industry better and more profitable but not by putting restriction on consumers, Xbox One multimedia features looks great for example.

Thank you very much for saying this. So if Playstation 4 were to have these same restrictions you would still buy it and play the games.

Read the next sentence. This is clearly a joke.

Why exactly is it obvious they're "never" going to sell near Wii? Those are some pretty bold statements...

All Nintendo needs to do is go back to the philosphies that made the Wii so successful - simple and intuitive, pure gameplay, over the cinema glitz and complexity that plagues the industry right now, and they'll have another hit on their hands. Problem is Nintendo has regressed back to the Gamecue style of niche games with its Wii U, and the controller is nowhere near as inviting to the mass consumer as the Wiimote. Question is, will they ever go back down that road of the Wii? Their fate is in their own hands..

It certainly isn't going to be the most "intense" competition yet either. Quite the opposite. The competition is going to be the weakest it's ever been. With MS essentially shooting themselves in the foot, and PS4 appealing to a niche of hardcore gamers, complete with what is likely to be another very high price tag, in this current economy of near depression, I fail to see how either of those consoles are going to even put up decent numbers.

So you're basically saying forget about the developers that make the games I enjoy. So what if they lose millions in used game sales.

BigBrother? lol

Not sure why you're thanking me?  And yes it's ultimately games that I enjoy.  I like PS exclusives the most so if ps4 and x-one have same restrictions I would only buy ps4 for the exclusives.  If I like xbox exclusives more I would buy x-one. 

Exactly! The home console industry is already divided between Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo, so this is just one more step towards a truly Orwellian future.
