This is why we need more people who preserve games (Ps1,Ps2,Ps3)
This is what happens when financiers and marketers are promoted.
My all time favorite game is old.. it's Unreal Tournament and also Unreal Tournament 2004.. I own them on steam and now GOG as of the awesome spring sale that just ended.
This is why people pirate games. If they dont want us to buy them, then we will take them.
No rich, all you have to do is not get attached to games 🤣🤣🤣 play it once and on to the next copy and paste game
I still play L4D2
That’s why digital sucks a lot on console u own nothing and broken.
Physical all the way and goty
Emulation is the best thing now. You can play it orginally or force it to render to 1080p beyond. Rpcs3 is getting better and better so ps3 emulation is slowly coming together
I don’t give a damn about preserving Sony’s history.
Jesus, Sony is just throwing the game to Microsoft at this point.
Everytime i hear the name Sony i always think about the flashgitz parody that came out a few years back.
Now we're the one's getting stuffed in the hole.
Funny how during every PS5 event (last stats of play for example) you all eagerly wait big Triple A announcement, but then you all call the event trash when it just consists of indie games
The problem is that we allowed update patches to become acceptable in console gaming and that was always going to bite us. It's not too late to demand change, but we're all going to need to stop pre-ordering anything except hardware and start simply passing on games like Cyberpunk 2077 that ship broken. The industry won't listen if the money keeps rolling in.
This is coming from man who said i hope everyone upgrades to ps5
While this topic is a great conversational piece we have to remember that video games are #1 a luxury, not a privilege and #2 it's a business. I've gamed on everything since the atari 2600 and I've enjoyed a huge majority of what I've played. However I had to accept that in 2021 regardless of my stand on how Sony is handling thing the player base is getting younger and younger. There's no money in it for companies such as Sony to keep things active from 2 generations ago. We're living in the digital age Rich. Did you forget Blockbuster video is gone? Right along with compact disc's? Why is that? Because everything has gone digital. It is what it is due to technology. At the end of the day gaming is not a privilege and if nobody likes it, make your own company and change the industry
And this how Sony will falling apart
Yes no lame intro! Right into it awesome
People will turn their backs on Sony in their millions and that will be Sony’s downfall,we the consumers have made Sony’s bosses rich, how dare they do this to us
I still use my backwards ps3 with an upscaler (more than my ps5 tbh) and I have multiple vitas.
You can't even play multiplayer games online cause an update is required
Sony just like Apple. I’m stuck buying next gen console forever. I hope Sony continues PS4 games on next gen consoles like ps6
THIS IS WHY XBOX IS BETTER!!!!!!
Mass boycott will force those motherfuckers to change things. Vote with your wallets that’s the only thing that hurts them.
Can confirm, I can't update Gran Turismo 5 EU version.
Physical games = selling back somewhere and getting SOEMTHING back that I wouldn't get otherwise
If the "Physical is better because it's plug n play" then DRM free digital should be better.
The internet is ruining video games
I'm gonna buy a ps3 and buy all the games I want. If my battery dies I'll just jailbreak the system.
Anyone else waiting for Simmons to flip that mic up?
Imagine playing Legend of Dragoon , Breath of Fire 3 , Final Fantasy Tactics and Tales of Eternia with Trophies
Aren't there a whole bunch of conventions, get together and stores that revolve around "Old games that nobody wants to play."
Always a catch to convenience.
Also not trying to be anti console here but buy a pc, create an account on GOG. Have your games installed via the GOG galaxy launcher or download game installers and save them on external hard drive or Blu-ray Disc. Have both convenience and archival solutions.
Good on you stretching this out
$ony doesn't care about anyone but that $ony $$$, Rich. No game preservation (which when you think about it, how often does the majority play the old vs new, exclusive releases? Part of me can't blame them for developing cinema quality games, which in part their specific devs' content just doesn't interest me much vs XBox) no mobile PSN/PSNow, limited PC support….. As streaming becomes more broadened for exclusive eco, $ony is losing the long run.
It's like they want Microsoft to win.
They can't sell you the same game over and over and over again…if you already own it.
It's sad to say this but it's actually too late already… Once the ps store for ps3, psp and vita get shut down, everything will be lost forever. Sony should have done everything when the ps5 launched, but they screw up pretty bad. Bcoz ps5 is the last saving grace for all things retro on the store to be preserved, its now or never. We need that all our previous digital purchases can be played on future consoles, and that need to be done by the time ps5 launched. But since the sony is pulling the plug already, I think we can all say goodbye to digital backwards compatibility…
I've been gaming since the 80's. I honestly can't go near games more than five or so years old, they are too dated. I rarely go back to a game either, once It's completed. I know people who love retro games though, different strokes for different folks.
ha i play dauntless at 720p 30hz and i play it for 10 hours at a time sometimes
I feel like any game company that says no to old games are just them forgeting those games existed and just next stage in alzheimers.
Old games were complete for $60 you got everything now new games are cinematic 6 hour games with cosmetics you have to buy (with money) dlc etc…………….so ya we need old games
Obviously they are censor happy now. they make games for a minor section of gamers and they alienated gamers in Japan and in general. who turned Sony into this how did this happen?
All comes down to is the fact of making sure the drm works even to sacrifice preservation
@ 7:12 he mentions an archivist, where can I fins the video he is talking about? A little help anyone? I tried searching youtube but idk what the handle is I typed asmr usa and i get a bunch of things not related to video games.
Physical PS4 games still install and load up on ps5 when not connected to the internet right?
For myself I preferred buying physical games, and when we didn't need an internet connection to play, where I live I can't get good internet, therefore I only have a 200gb a month limit and 20mbps Max download speed.
This is the reason why I extract the iso files and images from my PS2 games so I can preserve them and play them on PCSx2 or Duckstation emulators
It's an objective fact that Microsoft is the only one not constantly fucking up right now.
