Knew it was probably too good to be true but didn't say anything because I didn't want to jinx it. Guess it didn't matter.

""The DRM decision is going to have to be answered by the third parties, it's not something we're going to control, or dictate, or mandate, or implement," Tretton added."
Pretty brilliant (and incredibly sneaky) move by Sony. They get their press conference moment that everyone will remember, then slip this in as a clarification later, with fewer people being aware of it. With this situation it's not going to really be that different than what Microsoft has as far as potential DRM. No check ins I'd hope/assume, but it's not like EA is going to restrict on one but not the other.
