They didn't specifically say it at their conference they just listed the things you can do without Ps+ and multiplayer wasn't on the list. What i want is for intelligent gamers to have conversations with out having to deal with aggressive cocks thrusting their opinions in without having done research.

Woah there big boy!

To answer your first question: No, I am not being an idiot.

Every Microsoft conference from here on out will not discuss their anti-consumer policies. Nor will their eventual ad campaign for the XB1 shed light on the policies at hand. That's what I meant to say. I guess it wasn't as implied as I believed it to be. They're not talking about it themselves anymore so its up to everyone else to make sure that policies stay in the spotlight instead of them being swept under the rug like MS so desperately wants. Do you understand now?

And in the last part of my post, I thought it was implied that I was aware of what is going on with PS4 and PS+ since I mentioned paying for online. I could have been more clear, but I don't think it was too hard to notice that. Eh..

Im willing to bet you are wrong, preferably on both accounts but most importantly the latter.

So place the bet then (on both accounts).

It would be a horrible business move by MS to even hint at those policies again. Especially after Sony has announced that they are not following the same route.

Given the lack of ability to test the first i'm willing to bet 10,000 TC. My bet being that Microsoft will in the future prior to the release of the Xbox One release a lot of information about the exact policies on DRM. Sound good to you?

The Licenses are going to be tied to your gamer tag, so if your xbox were to break then you could transfer the license onto your new console. It's what they currently do for XBLA titles and DLC it's a pretty good system, i used it when my house got robbed and i had to get a new 360.

This in itself is not a big deal. PC gaming has done this almost exclusively for years.

Removing the only advantage console has over PC? Not sure if good move.

Lol.. Had you been able to prove that I was being an idiot, I would have given you every item I had on my account... 10k tc will have to do then.

PM me whenever MS talks in detail about their DRM policies to a (moderately) popular media outlet.. with the proof of course.
