I started back with Rome, then got Medieval II, Empire (so much wasted potential), and Napoleon.

I only ever had Empire, but I don't think my PC is good enough to handle the new ones on anything above medium graphics. If I get a new PC (probably should, mine is like 5 years old now) I will fap on Rome 2 for many hours. Also Company of Heroes 2 and ArmA III. :D

Well, when you think about it, all Sony did was leave that up to the publishers. EA already does an online pass, so you can't hand off fifa to your friend and let him try it online.

The way XB1 is doing it will likely make it cheaper for publishers since restrictions like this are already in place and they don't have to build them into the titles themselves. More and more publishers will likely be using DRM in the future since they lose money through piracy and the used games market while Gamestop makes a fortune.

EA scraped their online pass program recently. They accepted that it was a bad move. Even then, what Xbox one does is much worse. You can't even play single player with their approach.

They probably scrapped it because with the xb1's new policies they won't need it any more. Microsoft is effectively doing their dirty work for them. Expect them to come up with something for their ps4 titles. Lol

PES has an online pass. Aside from the problem some had getting it to work I don't see a problem with that. Lending your friend the game is one thing, but why do they need to try online?

Besides, they hold your personal data.

Lending games doesnt really effect me. I dot lend games to friends they dont lend them to me. The used game thing kinda sucks. But gamestop fucks u on those anyways, they buy a game that was just released for like $20 then thrn around and sell it for $5 less than full retail. Fuck them.

Whether they do that is up to them, not Sony. Microsoft has implemented DRM on everything, including their own first party titles. Sony has already stated that they will not implement this on their first or second party titles. Third party publishers may choose to do this, at their own risk. And there are already publishers backing down on their third party DRM stance for PS4 titles.



EDIT- And the reason why they are doing this? Word is, Sony has reduced their licensing fee to third party publishers, therefore these publishers will now make more money upfront for every game sold on PS4, so that a re-sale value for used games will not affect said publsihers

I doubt microsoft decided on doing this without speaking with its top third party publishers. I really think the only thing that will hold xb1 back at the start is its price.

Dunno about PS+ but Fable 3 is a free download on Live Marketplace at the moment.

Is it still up there? Rumor was that it was a glitch in the marketplace. I better get there ASAP.

No one is saying that they didn't, but to do that to your own first party titles is ridiculous.

Like I said, I will get one eventually, but I don't like several things that they are doing right now that just come off as trying to screw the consumer over.
