Well, i wouldnt be surprised if this actually hurts them in a big way. This is one of the most stupid decisions they have made so far, specially when the competition keeps all the games and are actually working on ways for players to access those old games with their new consoles. Sony deserves to hold a massive L this gen for all the stupid shit they keep doing. I am not buying a PS5 this gen since they are showing me that my library is at risk with those fuckers.

Emptyeyes Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I need games that gravitate towards being hipster like, which will suffice at this point. To be honest, I've played them all in the context that they are very relating to. That's generally why I don't bother much with games. Old school games seemed to be what I lean toward. I wish it wasn't that way. Link to comment

Just throwing this out there, Ninty isn't really any dif when it comes to digital and actually in some ways they're worse in this boat. The only one of the big 3 that has put forth the most effort to essentially keep most of their games available as they've been upgrading has been M$.

Sonichuman Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Personally I've just come to accept digital store fronts for older consoles shutting down as an eventuality unless companies prepare for it in the future with M$ being the outlier because of some combination of deep pockets, their systems probably being far closer to computers, and just them knowing more about how to keep an ecosystem together even if they have multiple platforms connected to it because of their background. I'm pretty sure Sony has only just started thinking in terms of stuff like this which is why they've made it so a majority of the digital games for PS4 are BC with PS5. I'd be surprised if they didn't continue down this route in the future in some way but I don't expect them to keep the digital storefronts for those past systems up. I'm not going to pretend like I'm tech savvy on how all that stuff connects but I'm pretty sure that they're probably downsizing servers or something for those platforms and have probably have been keeping an eye on traffic and sales for those platforms to the point that they believe whatever resources are being used to keep those storefronts up could be better served elsewhere.

If you own the game you'll still be able to download them. You just wont be able to buy anything. If you've got the right model PS3 it can be hacked with ease.

Faltimar the Dark Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 So why are you upset with Sony? Its you that chooses not to have your games. I've always assumed the store would go away on PS3 and Vita and shit. It probably cost too much to keep the store up and running with probably very low sales. They also want to "encourage" people to move on to their newer systems. DoctaMario 1 Link to comment
MillionX Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Things that are still on those devices still work, according to the wording on the site... but this doesn't give the average consumer any faith in anything for the future on Sony systems, since you know it will be shut down at some point in the future each time, guaranteed.

MillionX Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Well, sometimes the MS Rewards system does have its faults... so I pre-ordered Outriders, and the system just doesn't recognize I did that apparently, so no 6000 points for me. Fortunately it's easy to earn these rewards points anyway, but that's some bullshit man... and it's not even the first time the system just fails to reward points when I did what was required to get that. Anyway, tonight's the night, folks.... I just hate that it is yet another game that should not have to be online but they made it like that anyway. Heh, it's still funny that a friend I know didn't want to believe me when I told him it's another online-only thing (*he fell for the hype when they clarified "it isn't a live-service game..you can play solo if you want."... that company rep cleverly dodged the question there, and my friend fell for that, obviously.) ...still, if I had my way... the ONLY games that would be online-only would be mmorpgs.

I agree, there zero reason to make a single player game online only. I know why they did it, it's a form of DRM. But it only hurts the consumer not the pirates, who just find a way around it anyways. Unless the game runs on the cloud, which would be some grade A bullshit. Only games that should require online connectivity are MMOs, as that's with in the nature of the game. Link to comment

Ps3 was the first sony console that digital was a real big part of, so it makes sense this would be a bit of a blow to people, but you can still download those games you bought. I have stacks of old games for older consoles that I kept either because I wanted to collect them, because I didn't think I'd get more than a buck or two selling them, or because I thought I might play them again, but if I'm being honest, I probably won't unless through emulation or because they've ported it to a newer console. There are so many new games coming out, I would honestly be surprised if people actually were playing those older games anyway. Link to comment
