I can see how this is confusing but nope, and by the way Polygon is funded by Microsoft.
Xbox One’s DRM is at platform level, that Microsoft choose to build into their system to facilitate DRM for ALL games. PS4, just like what we have now with Xbox360 & PS3, is at publisher level; the ONLY one that have the capability to enable it (if they choose to) is by the publisher such as EA’s online pass.; and SONY already confirmed outright that all 1st party stuff will have no DRM.
Not trying to sound like a fanboy, but that is what separate these two platforms at this point (disregarding the obvious price difference). Ultimately it is your money, and I would never fault anyone for buying hardware for exclusives especially the only reason I have a Xbox is because Steel Battalion (yeah, Dat Game)…:rofl
