these are my thoughts - I posted this on CNET, and got hammered by the PS fanboys.....
If you are so stupid to think that for one second, a game developer that is developing a game for both systems is going to have different DRM restrictions for one system and not the other your are painfully mistaken. Sony has played their card right in this - they have basically thrown up their hands and said that DRM will be up to the developers - this is clue #1 - you will have the same DRM restrictions on PS4 that you will on the ONE........If a game developer can get a cut for a used game via DRM on the PS4, the same way they would on the ONE, don't you think they would take advantage of this - game developers lose money on every used game purchase (well, don't lose money, but they don't profit either from a used game sale - the only profit is on the re-sale by Gamestop, etc.)....and the last time I checked, they are FOR PROFIT companies. Your just a delusional ***** if you don't think that your PS4 will have DRM on every game you purchase / sell. For instance - you will not be able to play a game you bought, and downloaded onto your hard drive, if you sell the physical copy of the disk to Gamestop. Any game developer who didn't build this security into their platform would be an *****, and if you believe that this will be the case on the PS4, you are just as much an *****. I question how it will work if your game is bought instore (physical disc), and you have the game downloaded to your HD, and then let your friend borrow the physical disc. Will you both be able to play the game, or only one of you. If its only one of you, I don't see the issue with this - for the past 25 years, game consoles have had physical media that allows one game system at a time to play the game - think Nintendo cartridge - if you wanted to let your friend borrow your game, you gave him the cartridge, and you couldn't play it until he gave it back - this is the same age old concept.
I do think that MS is making a mistake on this every 24 hr BS.....It should check your game license every time you open the game, and only then. If you loan your game to your friend, fine - they should play to their heart's content, but once that game is played back on your system, that floating license should be inactive. It doesn't seem that hard a concept to me.
That being said, I am on the fence - I have a PS3, mostly use it for playing movies, Netflix, and the occasional game - I am a fan of COD, and EA sports games - I will be purchasing one of these systems, but will wait to see some friends setups before. The PS3 interface is painful, the web browsing experience is possibly the worst thing ever, and the apps are hard to find, and even worse to use. If the ONE truly works like an extension of my Windows 8 PC, and I can run Windows 8 applications on it, and it has full web browser, etc. then I will be sold on the ONE. If the PS4 has a drastically improved interface, and works with my devices, then I will get it. The one thing that I do like about the ONE, is that I can play a friend in Madden who lives on the other side of the country, and be able to Skype with them at the same time - that will be really cool, don't discount this feature. Plus, the PS4 camera system will be 60$, which means that the real price difference is 40$
