Microsoft says Xbox One isn't getting new DRM policies
André Weingarten, a student from New York state, was able to play a disc copy of "Call of Duty: Ghosts" offline in campaign mode, even though his Xbox One was banned from connecting to the Internet, over the weekend. However, he later discovered he was unable to play the game at all.
Microsoft Xbox executive Albert Penello later posted on the NeoGAF message boards that this was not a sign of a new DRM game policy for the Xbox One, but simply a consequence of the fact that the company is still not ready to debut the console to the public. He stated, "His build is now old. This is why we were saying we didn't want people on early - it's not done yet." He added, "When we launch, console will work exactly as you expect today on 360."

Brandownage27 Cool, but I still don't trust them any more.
No.
What you mean is, you are going to be a Sony fanboy until your death.
I have seen your other posts.
You were yelling at people who didn't share your opinion.

Even And how exactly did he play a disk copy of Ghosts? It's not even out for Xbox One yet.. And the Xbox One isn't backwards compatible so he couldn't have used his 360 copy. I find this entire post bull.
Most of these news articles are main copy and pasted.
So you aren't calling this article bull, you're calling"neowin's" article bull.

-Mark I'm not surprised by this. I still wish they explained the DRM policies better. Much more people would of liked it if they did.
There were multiple problems.
From always being connected to the interent to not be able to play used games.

Ohm i also think this is a good idea on microsofts behalf
They almost didn't have a choice.
They got so much negative feedback from the first DRM polices they almost had to change them.

KAQ Well that's not good :/
"it's not done yet." - well they have about 1 week to go :/ so they are not doing very well :/
It is very good.
The DRM policies is what everyone wanted.
People shouldn't want it to change again after the complaining that was done.

They did amazing damage control when the whole DRM thing got blown way out of proportion.
Can't wait to get mine.
Can't wait to get mine.

daRealRush At first, while reading this, I thought it said, it was getting new DRM policies! And I was like "WHAT?!?!" But, then I read it again, and it said, that it isn't getting new DRM policies!
Hahah That scared me for a second man.
