Favouritism? I think he means preference.
Which is why I'm buying them less and less, essentially ... partly.
"EA did not aggressively lobby for the platform holders to put some gating function in there [...]"
EA lobbying for the platform holders to put some gating function in there confirmed ... albeit "non-agressively." Or we could trust him... That's always an option... I suppose

Aaaand I was correct, Sony clarified: http://www.gamefront.com/so...
And they will! :D see update
That they announced no DRM on the software side yesterday. If it's for multiplayer I don't care but yesterday Sony said it wouldn't happen for offline disc based singleplayer games.
Hopefully. Still, Sony is in a position to prevent it, that's the only good thing of a walled garden.
What's stopping EA (or whoever) from withholding single player until you authenticate online? Or unless you check in every 24 hours? Wouldn't they be able to replicate the entire Xbone DRM system?
Well, I must be very confused. is "The DRM decision is going to have to be in the hands of the third parties, yeah, that’s not something we’re going to dictate or control or mandate or implement." not the opposite of the claim that there will be no online authentication, given that offline DRM (except serials) is not in the hands of the publishers?
He *specifically* announced no check-in for disc based games. What The Fuck?
Suits are awesome, whoever made you believe otherwise?
Holy shit. Glad I kept my avatar for 5 years.

I just had a browse through your comment history to see whether you might be one of those shills we've been hearing so much about. This one is my favourite:
"From the rumoured specs I have read, MS console is more powerful. I guess people on n4g are still thinking that ps4's off the shelf parts will be more powerful then MS custom GPU's.
Only the ignorant think The ps4 is more powerful.
Gonna be a lot of angry and upset Son...
If it involves tablets I will throw a fit.
Museums are still going for that minimalistic presentation thing? How sad not to be able to see whatever is displayed in its proper context.
The harm can be defined as a relative loss of control over belongings. Microsoft determines whether and what games you can play. Microsoft will also be able to determine who knows your name, height, sex, voice and appearance. It knows whom you live with and can probably guess when you're home. This necessitates always-on which is excused by DRM, and it necessitates obligatory kinect for which Microsoft hasn't yet offered an excuse. Are you willing to lose control over the things I men...
