I hope people realize that if you sell direct to a person, and don't go through an approved reseller, that someone will have to pay that fee. I hope people also realize that permission on transferring titles is up to the publisher (meaning they could also block used titles too if they wanted). I hope that people also realize that there are restrictions on letting people borrow your game, since it has to be loaded through XBL, not handing a disk to someone. I hope that people also realize that this means you have to have an XBL subscription just to borrow a single player game from a buddy, while at least this is still free for PS users. I hope people realize that even all of the above, MS has stated could change at any time, so even the parts that seem ok can be taken away at any time. Summary, any action you take with a game you bought other than play, you pass along an electronic request to MS for permission. MS grants or denies based on CURRENT policy. And this is supposed to make people feel like they have a lot of flexibility with something the LAW says they have a RIGHT as a consumer to distribute FREELY?
Connect the dots people:
- Publishers complain about used game sales
- MS creates feature to block used game sales
- MS states "we aren't blocking yet"
- Publishers stated "we aren't either" we just want a *little* fee
- MS states, "but we can change this at any time" hehehehe
Makes a rational person wonder why they went to all the trouble to implement a DRM system they aren't going to use and "have no immediate plans" to use. Or that their partners make similar statements about. Strange. Could have saved a lot of effort, especially when anyone with a brain could have told them it would be unpopular.
It's also breaking the part of the law on copyright that's supposed to protect consumers. I'm sure they are doing it in a very clever way that skirts things though.

I hope that the people who believe that they will be charged a fee for used games actually educate themselves on facts rather than the words of a bunch of Sony fanboys. The fee is not charged to the customer, it is charged to places like gamstop, gamefly, etc.

Anyway, awesome game, definitely the most underrated game of 2012 IMO. I feel like most people over-exagerated the annoyance of the pawn dialog, which isn't that bad AND can be toned down to a very occasional quip very early in the game. In return you got one of the most original, ambitious action RPGs of this generation. Allowing for a ton of customization and different play-styles, and an awesome enemy selection and AI assigned for them. (I still remember the slack jaw I got when fighting a troll for the first time... and how when I climbed his limbs, he swatted me down, and if I held myself on his back, he would jump-slam me down into the ground, crushing me.)
So yes, thank you guys for showing this game again! if even one extra person gives this game a try because of this video, then I'd say it's mission accomplished :D

This just reeks of desperation. I'm happy with my current decision to migrate to the PS4. Unless the have some ridiculously great launch game, this will be the last system I will eventually purchase.

I honestly don't know why some people are praising MS on this. If it wasn't for Sony dominating E3 with their lack of DRM we would still be stuck with MS's "deal with it" attitude.

Man I did not even care about that, I rather have had them change the price!

The soundtrack in Remember Me has been really enjoyable so far. I think Deriviere did a great job pairing the music with the overall setting/look of the game; it meshes together really well.
