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."

tinypic That's good news, DRM is a bad thing
This.
I don't get why the sheep like the DRM so much, sure, family sharing is a good thing, but please don't bring back that 24hr connection check, that isn't a feature, that's a restriction.

HorizexBrandownage27 Cool, but I still don't trust them any more.
And why would you trust sony when they pretty much just handed anonymous PSN account information and credit cards and allowed then to knock PSN servers down for months.
God. What's with you annoying Playstation fanboys? Can you leave your biased PSN bullshit out of the xbox section? Thanks, I really appreciate it.

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.
Actually, CoD: Ghosts came out for the Xbox One last week. Funny you call this post bull because you don't keep up with gaming news.
