The Twitter campaign to You must login or register to view this content. both the end user reaction to Microsoft’s restrictive used game DRM and a plea to Sony to not repeat the same mistakes appears to be gathering a fair amount of steam since it was started overnight.


What kicked off from You must login or register to view this content. has quickly gained traction, with most major outlets at least aware of the story, with many, like You must login or register to view this content. and You must login or register to view this content., actively writing about it.


Since then, several Sony employees have Tweeted their acknowledgement of the campaign.

• “Humbled by the outpouring of passionate PlayStation fans and their willingness to talk to us directly,” said Nick Accordino, SCEA ISD Producer. “Please know that we hear you. <3.”
  
• “This is why I love PlayStation fans- the passion bucket overflows,” said John Koller, Head of Hardware Marketing.
  
• “To all the fans, with a special mention to GAFfers, I *love* your passion,” added Shahid Kamal Ahmad. “It convinces me that the path I chose 31 years ago was right.”
  

It’s worth noting that the Twitter accounts are generally not the opinion of the employer in cases like these, but it’s good to see the comments coming forth anyway, especially when they’re so consistent in tone and language. Having a positive effect? Looks like it.


Let’s hope that this is all having an effect, and that the PlayStation 4 won’t feature a system-wide used game DRM method, something that has caused much discussion since the Xbox One’s reveal last week. Are we likely to hear about this before E3, though? We’ll see.

okay this twitter thing on your thread is BADASS!!

If Xbox is the only thing with the DRM thing I'm sure that'll lose them customers :p

Thank God for twitter :p
I just love Sony :happycry:

this thing is moving through gamers quit fast, even xbox fans have started their own. maybe this will work, maybe not but as to Sony fans, at least their people are responding to the tweets with some love. ive been following this since 11pm last night and its pretty nice to see everyone uniting under a unified message. tweets have been personalized and are not just copy and past for the most part. im very interested in seeing what is to come out of this.

yeah it is, hopefully they dont make it so harsh like xbox or not atall which will be good

I'm certain Sony hears our pleas, the only thing is if they take it into account at this stage of development. Think that the PS3 mistakes and PS3 complains made by users were taken into account so as to not repeat them in the PS4.

sony is treading on the lighter path it seem. i wont even be surprised if some where some anomus members are nodding there heads and saying "Our work here is done".
