PS4 Doesn't Allow Online Passes Even From Third-Party Publishers

We've already come right out and said we're not going to allow online pass. And the word "allow" is key there. Specifically with online, with PS+ requiring a charge to play online, we would not want any publisher [to charge.]

In general, we're all businesses. Sony or Microsoft is never going to be able to tell EA or Activision exactly what they can do. What we like to say at PlayStation is that we set the precedent. The way we are approaching this is that we want this to be extremely consumer-friendly, extremely retailer-friendly, and extremely publisher-friendly. My personal opinion is that it's hard for me to believe that any major publisher is going to put an extra set of used DRM onto game titles because that wouldn't put them in a good spot, right? - See more at: PS4 Doesn't Allow Online Passes Even From Third-Party Publishers

I fail to see how this affects XB1

:what: that's like saying "oh I fail to see how Xbox live affects PS3"

It affects it because its yet another advantage the PS4 has over the Xbox

Proves that the restrictions Microsoft has on their console is complete bullshyt.

I'm telling you there is absolutely no payment needed (aside from the subscription fee, of course) to enjoy/share/trade your games however you'd like :smugbiden: can you say the same for Xbox one? No. & that's a huge point to look at if you're like me, someone always trading & sharing games.

People thought/hoped Ps4 would use atleast some form of DRM to make us pay for trading/sharing games but nah :blessed:
