EA Denies Asking Microsoft For Used Games DRM

The natural assumption to make when confronted with Microsoft’s used game restrictions is to blame video game publishers. They’re the ones who went to war with GameStop over used game resales, they’re the ones who instituted online passes, they’re the ones who stand to benefit from anything that can make people buy games new (where they make money) instead of used (where GameStop makes all the money). According to EA’s Peter Moore, however, one of the world’s biggest publishers had no part in Microsoft’s decision whatsoever. Asked by Polygon whether EA had lobbied Microsoft to implement the restrictions, Moore replied, “Absolutely incorrect. As the guy who is the chief operating officer of Electronic Arts I can tell you that EA did not aggressively lobby for the platform holders to put some gating function in there to allow or disallow used games. I am on record as being a proponent of used games.”cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"512779915","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"uncategorized","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"uncategorized","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); m358 เครดิตฟรี 188 “EA has never had a conversation”, he later adds, “and I have been present at all of them, with all of the manufacturers, saying you must put a system in place that allows us to take w69 slot เครดิตฟรี 188 บาท a piece of the action or even stop it.
