Sony wants to stop people from being able to resale their PS3 games after they buy them.

http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=c...d=3086&Itemid=2

Now how many reasons do you have not to buy a PS3?
1. Most expensive game console in history.
2. Crappy game lineup.
3. Draconian game licensing.
4. Image constraint token will keep you from watching HD movies in HD.
5. Blu-ray has DRM.

Let's not forget about the rootkit they distributed with their CDs.

Sony and their DRM... hah. They're doing everything possible to shoot themselves in the foot.

BUT... I MUST HIT TEH GIANT ENEMY CRAB'S WEAK POINT FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE!

I agree, PS3 is the worst abomination to hit the video games market.

Sad part is, Sony's right:

Retarded fanbois WILL buy it no matter what. Even if it has no games, even if it costs upwards of $1000 (excuse me: $999), even if the console ate the discs after 1 round of gameplay (truly effective DRM) biggrin.gif

They're addicted to sweet, sweet, milky Sony-semen. Gulp down buckets of the stuff, they do.
