1. Confirmed Microsoft is actively attempting to get developers to not mention PS4 versions. If they don't say "OUR GAME IS EXCLUSIVE FOR XBONE" expect a PS4 version. #truthfact
2. More DRM messaging at Gamescom. There is no rental strategy. Try to sweep it under the rug and hope people don't remember.
3. Cloud power was designed as DRM. Period. DRM was Microsoft's idea. EA and Ubisoft are supporters, Activision slightly less so.
4. DRM plans are actually worse than what they've stated.
5. Mirror's Edge 2 at MS conference.
6. Prince of Persia (reboot?) at MS conference.
7. Secret Phil Spencer game = World of Tanks?
8. Live paywall still there.
9. Dead Rising 3, and exclusive DLC for another Capcom game at MS conference.
10. No online paywall for PS4. Unconfirmed.
11. No DRM info for PS4.

FUCK at these. Makes sense, because in their new DRM presser they clearly mention that lending and borrowing etc will not be available at launch. That they're still working on it. Convenient!

Microsoft is paying third parties to not mention PS4 versions a la Sony and Diablo 3 (until they just announced it for 360 a day or two ago). If a game is not explicitly said to be Xbox One exclusive, it isn't.

Microsoft has no strategy or support plan for game rentals. They will also talk more about their DRM at GamesCom.

The cloud is primarily a DRM tool. Microsoft approached third parties with this plan instead of them requesting it. EA and Ubisoft love it, but Activision isn't nearly as supportive.

Exclusive first image of CBOAT:
I'm having trouble with that one. I can't tell if its a confirmed no, or can't confirm
Langlewdell. Beautiful.
If Sony is holding information on DRM because it is horrible, that's it for consoles. For realsies this time. I say I am a PC-only guy now, but am still very firmly on the fence for a PS4, if not at launch, at least next year.
Now, if like the Xbone, it is "like steam" except without any of the stuff that makes the PC so good, then the age of consoles is dead for sure. (at least in my house)

So:
1. MS 'moneyhatting' third parties to not mention PS4 version of multiplats and only show on Xbone
2. There is no rental plan, that's just a smoke screen. Execs cancelled interviews because the messaging talking points aren't complete for damage control and MS can't afford confused execs revealing the unvarnished truth.
3. The Clowd is total bullshit, exactly like SimShitty, a fake service that exists only for DRM. Third parties did not force MS to do this, MS came up with it and presented it on its own. EA and Ubisoft are the biggest supporters, Activision supports it but surprisingly less so.
4. The Terms of Service DRM plans are worse than we've even imagined.
5. Mirrors Edge 2 at MS Conference
6. New Prince of Persia at MS Conference
7. XBL pay wall for everything still in place
8. Dead Rising 3 at MS conference, there will be exclusive DLC for other Capcom games
9. Sony's info security is tight as a drum, no leaks, so no info on what to expect on DRM, games, etc
I think I got it all.

The buttocks has spoken. Godspeed.
is it weird that I can instantly understand all this but im dyslexic?
Eh, it sounds like DR3 is possibly still exclusive. DR3 and DLC for another game.
So:
-Microsoft is convincing publishers to not mention PS4 versions of multiplatform titles. If Xbone exclusivity is not directly mentioned, it is sure that a PS4 version is in the works.
-The next wave of info about the One's DRM is at Gamescom. No rental support is in the works, and executives are being quiet.
-The cloud with Xbox One is basically a front and excuse for DRM. Microsoft approached third parties with DRM, not the other way around. EA and Ubisoft are the biggest supporters, while Activision isn't really happy about it.
-The One's DRM is worse than MS is letting on. CBOAT can't get any more info from his sources because they fear for their jobs.
-Mirror's Edge 2 will make an appearance at the MS conference. (is it exclusive?)
-Prince of Persia will also appear at the MS conference.
-Phillip Spencer has a secret title.
-Live does have a paywall next gen.
-Dead Rising 3 is coming (Xbone exclusive?) and another Capcom game is getting exclusive DLC
-PS4 online play is free
-Sony is keeping PS4 DRM info close to the chest.
edit: bah, beaten

Not a surprise since Activition are one of the few companies who didn't have online activation codes in their games and didn't exploit the Season pass thingie.
As much as people are harping on how much they hate Activition and thier reliance on CoD series, they are one of the few companies who actually support us, gamers.

Trying to get exclusives on the cheap I bet.

The hell? Lol
Sony is not going to talk about DRM tomorrow.
Expect them to be silent about it until this Fall (or a week before launch)
The reason being is that they don't have to, they can ride the negative publicity MS is having until their own launch.

I'm not even sure Sony knows their DRM plan at this point. They suck at keeping a lid on anything when it's set in stone.

Bless you Buttz.
*sigh* haven't read the entire thread but my take from the bolded... if there is nothing cboat can get, that to me is confirmation of DRM. Not sure how much like MS it is, but it's there. Which I wouldn't be surprised. Sony has been talking about stopping used games/drm since ps3 rumor days.

What else does MS have? They've had a damn horrible month. Now they hope to look like they've have more games by have pubs not mention PS4 versions.
It sucks because a strategy like this could work on the unsuspecting consumer.
Sony really needs to hit every point and have an attractive cost of entry. $350 would do wonders for the PS4.
Activision, good guys? we live in a strange world people..
