It'd be suicide if they tried it. If Sony tries to do that, we'd have most PS3 players jump ship to Microsoft and Sony will probably be out of the console gaming business (or vice versa if Microsoft tries it).
But I'm thinking this is probably just a rumor. It makes some sense... But they have to realize that a lot of gamers buy primarily or only used games and they just won't buy the new console if they restrict it like that. I'm among that group, in case that wasn't obvious.
Beyond that bit of raging stupidity (whether it's true or not), I probably won't buy one any time soon anyways. I'm happy with my 360 Slim I just got last year, they'll have to impress the hell out of me to even convince me to upgrade in the next few years (especially since 360 and PS3 games should still be in production for a couple years).
