if that aint a plea, I don't know what is.

Discredit journalists when you disagree with them, brehs
You do it all the time. Link said articles so we can read them. I went to gamspot and I seen the X1 is outpacing the ps4 on amazon's wishlist.

this shyt is on gamespot, N4G and playeressence, I guess they have no idea wtf they're talking about, and they stan sony.
No. You are a Sony Stan that doesn't know what he's talking about. Those websites are just Re-posting a controversial story for clicks.

so they're using a participants copy of KI in this tournament???

The X1 console they are using is not the "home console" for the game

Claiming your not a stan and then calling the X1 a derogatory name is not helping your argument. Journalist are people too, they are not infallible. We all do it when they say something we dont agree with. In this case its just for clicks and repeating the same source story.

Those sites are just Re-posting the same story. And none of them mention drm in the way you are trying to present it here.

Drm is present on ALL DIGITAL TITLES ON BOTH SYSTEMS. That's the truth. There is no story here. I've played KI plenty of times with the Internet disconnected and I didn't have any problems

Xbox One's 24 Hour Check-In DRM Returns During Killer Instinct Tournament

Out of the blue moon one of the most surprising things happened: the Xbox One did a 180 on its 180 and started acting like its original self. By that, I mean that the console – during a live tournament that was being broadcast on Twitch – decided to stop during the middle of the game and ensure that those using the console were the proper owners of the content.

The story was originally captured by FGCNN, where they were watching the stream and noticed that right during the middle of the bout, the game kicked the users out and asked them to verify the content by checking in online. Don't believe me? Of course you don't. It's a darn good thing we have video footage below.



FGCNN decided to give the Xbox One the benefit of the doubt regarding the DRM incident and did their due diligence by contacting Microsoft about the issue before running the story. However, Microsoft declined to respond but one of the PR they contacted said to them – before hanging up – “What is 'FGCNN'?”

Oh burrrrrrnnnn!

Great PR there, Microsoft. That's going to win you a whole lot of brownie points.

Now it's easy to say that FGCNN isn't a big name site and Microsoft had no reason to respond to a potentially damaging story, but what happens when Kotaku gets a hold of it? Or Eurogamer? Or Game Informer? I doubt making a shrewd remark will go over well when the gaming community already has a low standard of Microsoft and the Xbox One.

Worse yet is that the DRM check-in, as showcased in the video above, completely kicked the users out of the game. So before saving anything, logging anything or issuing a warning, the check-in just completely exits the user with complete and total disregard to the user activity or the content.

If you think the incident was isolated, think again.

On the Test Your Might forum, one user responds to the incident, noting that it wasn't isolated and has occurred a couple of times during Killer Instinct tournaments...


“We've already had issues with it a few times at tournaments. The DRM system is still in place for games that are digitally downloaded, such as Killer Instinct. Disc-based games don't require it, but downloads still do. We had a particularly annoying issue with my XB1 at the Break a few weeks ago because I hadn't logged in previously that day for the checkin AND the online servers for KI were having issues. So I couldn't access the game offline because I needed to check in and I couldn't check in because of the problem they were having. VERY annoying that these systems are still in place. Microsoft was not up front about this, and it's really disheartening. The system is not necessary when the bulk of their games are going to be on disc.”

Originally, a lot of gamers were peeved about the inclusion of a 24-hour check-in when Microsoft announced the policies back during the Xbox One's reveal. To this very day we've yet to receive an answer from Microsoft as to why they felt the need to include such stringent DRM measures, especially considering that even with the old policies the Family Share Plan was never going to be available at launch.

Essentially it's an inconvenience for inconvenience's sake. Hackers, modders and crackers will bypass the DRM eventually since that's just what they do.

Worse yet is that this could seriously hamper Killer Instinct's presence at FGC tournaments and, if the issue isn't properly resolved, could prevent the game from making a showing at the 2014 EVO tournament. There's no way tournament organizers will allow for a game where it could cut out during the middle of a semi-finals match.

I guess everyone who was called a tinfoil-hat wearing conspiracy theorists for holding off on purchasing an Xbox One can take a sigh of relief... it looks like you guys were right again.

Ok I see Im talking to an idiot. Why would I be mad? I could give two shyts if buy or like the X1 or not. This story is a non issue, its just for clicks. In the future they will have discs for the games like now. In KI case each console in the tourny will need to be the home console or have internet connection on both the PS4 and X1 on digital titles.
