I'm kinda confused here when I read the article, whats going on exactly?

Another reason not to get a ps D: I think that's stupid and it's something that'll make game stores lose some business. 

AAAAANNNNNDDDDD, Orbis/PS4 sales just instantly dropped. Doesn't even need to come out, NO ONE will buy it with they include this tech that makes the disc "console exclusive"

ITS NOT OFFICIAL. I doubt it will acctually happen, but its still sucks that it is even thought of 

Seems a bit stupid, what about when your console breaks and you buy another one? Also if that's the case the people who buy to complete and sell on would probably just wait til it's down in price since they won't get any profit from it.  

Oh god its finally happened.

Funny. Yesterday there was a rumor of that if you buy a used Wii U and the past user bought anything from the eShop then wiped everything you could still download it again for free... Why is everything so catastrophic this week... DX

I think that the games are gonna be locked onto a certain account. but still. 

Not going to happen. Game companies know that most people buy used games from GameStop or PlayNTrade.

If they actually do something like this, then they are gonna get a face full of spirit bomb >:OOO

But then there's also the problem of siblings, I doubt a parent will buy the same game twice for two different accounts ._.'

I think it's just a rumor, IGN's been known to post false stuff like this before...

Well it's also been talked about through Machinima and they usually talk of what is most likely to happen, and they gather their information from sites and actual people which have lots of reputation of knowing true information or are actual people representing a company.

I was already planning to stick to my current gen, i'd be lucky to afford the next gen console by itself, let alone the games cx

This is bible.  All of it is fake.  My word is law.  It's dark now...

there's no way this will happen.... however.....

 

Sephiroth.... we have a new target for you. Sony's president is after the promised land..... yeah....yeah I know.... Yes I'll have those cookies you wanted!

If this happens I hope Kingdom Hearts switches it's main games to another console.

...WHAT?

Getting the patent is one thing, but using it now would not be smart.
