>It's real https://www.youtube.com/live/N0UuTNyDobo?si=rYv94mg_mi02zomRFuck Sony!
IT'S A BUG
>>737719393>inb4 "b-but anonymous insider confirmed it's a bug!!!"
They already removed it, but I don't think it's a bug.There's been a jailbreak of PS5 and given the Hardware shortage situation they were expecting to cash in on software, so I think they're panicking that people are jailbreaking en masse, because of Age Verification.
>>737719393I ffw for lolz and...>2:03:58This guy knows what's a good game.
>>737719596Doesn't matter if they fix it, Microsoft did that with Xbox one and to this day they are still recovering. PlayStation is fucking dead. The fact they've done this and have the ability to do it is concerning.
>>737719676>Microsoft did that with Xbox one and to this day they are still recoveringMicrosoft is still doing it, you can't play Halo Infinite campaign offline on the Xbox Series S, I shit you not. Good to know that PlayStation has fully become Xbox blue, now I don't need to bother purchasing any version of the PS6.
>>737719512no, it's an actual feature lmao
>>737719872Curious about Nintendo. Are they safe?
>>737719676>Doesn't matter if they fix it, Microsoft did that with Xbox one and to this day they are still recovering. PlayStationYou overestimate the average Snoy. They will defend this to the death. They aren’t human.
>>737719927Nintendo and Valve, with Steam, are the only ones that are safe. Nintendo and PC gaming are my childhood anyway, both won. I'm getting a Switch 2 OLED and a Steam Deck 2, and I'm never looking back. Sony and Microsoft can suck it.
>>737720108That's good to know. I own a Switch 2 and Switch 1. Glad Nintendo is always behind trends. If I need to play third party I'm going to save up for a PC and ignore the PS6 and next Xbox. I'm sticking with Switch 2 and PC.
https://youtu.be/rXszEM9JO00?si=UkjFMESfjMe33D8vYeah, I'm skipping PS6 and throwing away my PS5.
99.9% of ps5s sold in the next 3 years won’t be to people who can be fucked jail breaking, Sony doesn’t care. You’re in a bubble if you think otherwise.
>>737719393>2+ hours
>>737719927you're talking to a guy that's desperately trying to bunch pc in with nintendono, they're just as bad and it's only a matter of time, they're literally inventing ways to control their users more with keycards
>>737720332seething snoyjeet
>>737720332I don't buy key cards. I just focus on actual carts with games in them.
>>737719676That was literally before DRM and Digital First was normalized. Doesn't Switch already do this? We're acting like Sony is the only ones doing it, but if I haven't used my Switch in a while, it prompts to do online checks. Maybe it's only the for the NSO emulators.
the amount of cope and damage control from snoys when this news dropped was insane.
>>737720308Yeah well the terminal online dudes are going to treat the PS6 just like the xbone. Everyone is going to PC and Nintendo.
>>737719393....so let me get this straightIf I decide to open up my PS5, brick it, remove one of the vital components, remove the thing that keeps its internal clock and system running, put it back together, open it and keep it in bricked offline mode, my games don't work?and if I want to them to work again I just need to connect to the internet (very hard to do, I know) once and then it works again?
>>737719927>>737720108There's nothing safe about Switch 2. If you read the EULA and TOS, and Data Collection screens when you boot it up it reveals a lot about how it's Palantir'd to hell and back already.Console makers are trying to adapt to the way the AI industry is headed: to the datacenters, cloud-access, and a whole lot of leasing and subscribing to Software as a Service rather than actually owning what you pay for.
>>737720387no, i don't have any consolesyou have to be delusional to think nintendo's any betterthe very purpose of consoles is to control their users
>>737720427Holy fuck you low IQ faggot, only ONLY NSO! you're good with everything else of course you aren't a key card buyer.
snoy is incredible. I've lost all faith in them at this point.
>>737720189Nintendo always have ways to do what Sony and Microsoft does but in a way that doesn't shit on the consumer as hard as Sony and Microsoft as a way to check mark for the shareholders. Nintendo only does it for NSO games, not Switch/Switch 2 games. Sony and Microsoft are anti-consumer pricks. Only Nintendo and Valve kept the soul of console and PC gaming alive.>>737720332Yet it still doesn't come close to what Sony and Microsoft does, Nintendo are even lowering prices on digital games. You can never compare Nintendo or Valve to PlayStation or Xbox, it simply just doesn't work.
>>737720404too bad, that's their futurethey chose to use cartridges specifically because of security
>>737719676>Microsoft did that with Xbox one and to this day they are still recoveringIn fairness it was a 24 hour check in back in 2013 while also trying to kill used games and upcharging you a spycam.Nowadays people are always connected, buy digital only consoles and have smart devices recording everything they do.
>>737720487>There's nothing safe about Switch 2.Stop being this gay, Switch 2 is offline friendly you retard.
>>737720108The only one that's safe is GOG, because while they can update their service to remove DRM-free copies at some point the fact is they're currently selling all their games as DRM-free, with .exe installer files you're allowed to download and save. So as long as you have those, you have a DRM-free game forever (unless Windows stops supporting it down the line).Anything that's dependent on license-checking and using a front-end to download it, like Steam, PlayStation, Xbox etc. and anything that reads physical discs but does a DRM online check, is not safe. It means they can simply revoke your current rights at some point in the future, and then you can no longer play offline anymore.Stop buying stuff on Steam if you care about actual ownership.
>>737720487Uh huh, then please explain why only Sony and Microsoft are doing it?
>>737720332>they're literally inventing ways to control their users more with keycardsYou can't have a PC master race with retards like this.
>>737720560>Nintendo are even lowering prices on digital gamesyes, that's an incentivethey want to move as much as they can to digital to justify dropping physical so they can get more profits and control
>>737720645that's a snoy though
>>7377205638 years from now, switch 2 should have a pretty good physical library now that smaller carts exist. Switch 2 is going to be my last console though, Switch 3 or whatever Nintendo does next might be fully digital.
What exactly is the surprising thing here? Any game bought through a storefront will not work offline if you mess with that device's thing that tracks date and security syncs. This is exactly why hypervisor cracks work for Denuvo games on PC. The same shit will happen to ur steam library if you disable it on your pc.The only stuff that works offline 100% of the time with no internet connection is stuff that you don't get from a store front. This is an obvious thing and its been on PC since Steam and other storefronts arrived, and on consoles since the 360 and ps3 days.
>>737720632You can play your Steam games offline, you can't if you get digital on PlayStation and Xbox. You can stop shoving Sony's and Microsoft's problems on to others, it doesn't work.
>>737719927You just triggered the snoys. Nintendo is safe, at least for now, you can only hope that this doesn't become a trend, but anyone with a brain would realize that what SIE is doing is pretty much corporate suicide.
>>737720475Is this actually what’s happening, I’m not watching a video of any length let alone two hours.
>>737720560>Only Nintendo and Valve kept the soul of console and PC gaming alive.It actually seems like Ninty are carrying on the legacy of the older developers... I'm a lot more worried about when Valve olds die off... the company will become the most cancerous thing imaginable I think. There is almost no avoiding it once other people get their hands on the levers and pulleys.
>>737720332>they're literally inventing ways to control their users more with keycardsDumbest shit I have ever read. Game key cards are literally just digital games that you can lend or sell. There's no renew license fuckery that playstation is doing
>>737720661Again, Sony and Microsoft are already doing this yet, they refuse to lower the prices.
Why are they so hellbent on enshittyfing the breads and circuses? I already will never own a home, why can’t I own my fucking games?
>>737719393lmfao oh yeah kikes ?the same shit with nintendoill keep your hardware and then hack itand have a game console with all of the games and you cant do jack shit.the same thing im going to do with my xbox 360and all the other shit you shut offill install custom software and you wont be able to do jack shitgood luck shutting off a n64 or snes lolill buy like 4 of them so you cant you cannot stop me lmao
>>737720749Yes, just fucking skip to the end. He removes the cmos battery and none of the new games work.
>>737720754You do know Gabe can choose who runs the place right?
>>737720645nigger, no one told them to make keycardsstop pretending like nintendo is some pro consumer companythe very foundation of their business is them making you buy hardware that's locked down so that only they can profit from it and dictate everything you can do on it, just like sonyred and blue are the exact same shit
physical games are safe?
>>737720803Switch 2 is saved though.
>>737719393Incredibly based live tester. Fuck Sony, even if they fix this the reputational damage is done.
>>737720857third party devs told them to though.
>>737719596lol sony royallly fucked upthe second i can get into my account im going to cancel my ps plusit is illegal to lock a credit card payment behind terms of service.i am entitled to cancel my servicesony is illegally stealing my money by trying to force me to accept terms to cancel my ps plusGod is a turbo kike look at how he lovingly licks the asshole of all evil worldwide cleanthey dont even need toilet paper with the child raping nigger jesus around
>>737720857>red and blue are the exact same shitNintendo is the least bad at this to be fair.
>>737719393if you dont like what kikestation is doingbuy a cheap pc with a 4 core cpu and put any linux or win xp/7/8 on itand disable the wifi cardand run only pirated gamesa ryzen 1400 + a rx 580 will run shit like far cry 1-5 the old codshalo etcyou can play 10k+ hours of games on a pc like thati could do something similar with my 750m laptop
>>737720952nintendo and sony and ms are the same thingall owned by blackrockeven if you buy used games blackrock owns gamestopGod is a non omnipotent rat fuck nigger who pretends to be omnipotent while denying the only real law free will
>>737720786>Game key cards are literally just digital games that you can lend or sellthey carry none of the fucking benefits of digital, quit the cope, they also have that 30 day thing btwlook, what happened is that nintendo finally found out that their proprietary media form factor is expensive as shit to make and they wanted to make it cheaper for themselves, it's not for you, there is zero benefit for you here
>>737720749Every PC/Console has a way to keep security and date/time related features in sync with itself even when offline. In a console, your CMOS battery does that. If a game bought on PSStore, Steam, Microsoft Store, Nintendo Store, etc. cannot communicate with those offline security syncs and checks when you're offline, the game will likely not launch anymore. By taking the CMOS battery out of a PS5 and putting it back in, you're esentially resetting the offline security checks in your console, so your game has no idea how to communicate with the checks anymore. If you just go online even for a split second, the console figures out everything is fine and lets you play stuff offline again for as long as you want.This is basic computer stuff.
>>737721041>they also have that 30 day thing btwno they don't
>>737721041>>737721029Don't. Buy.key.cardsIs that simple you morons.
>Search up "nintendo" ITT>22 resultsSnoys can't help it, huh?
>>737721041>they also have that 30 day thing btwYou better provide a source for that.
>>737721029>nintendo and sony and ms are the same thingNope, just Sony and MS, always have been with those faggots. Nintendo divorced itself from them with the DS and Wii, Valve doesn't follow them either with Steam. You Snoys and Xbots can't pin your bullshit on either Nintendo or Valve. If you were true gamers, you would stop pointing fingers and just drop PlayStation and Xbox entirely.
>>737721127you should have seen it when the news first dropped.
>4chan discovers how consoles work after 25 years
>>737720475>brick it?>remove one of the vital componentsyou mean a battery that the system functions perfectly fine without and will eventually die>remove the thing that keeps its internal clock and system runningjust outright lying about it keeping the system runningyou don't feel any shame about having to lie to run defense for your corpo overlords?
>>737721127Snoys are masters at deflecting and projecting, this is by far one of the worst news SIE has revealed in recent memory and the first thing they did was crying "BUT NINTENDO".
TLDR what dumb shit has Sony done?
>>737721234Digital games now have a 30 day check in drm.
>>737721234you need to check in once a month to keep your games.
>>737721127If it ain't Snoys saying "Nintendo will do it too", it's Xbots saying "It's only a matter of time before Gabe kicks the bucket and sells Valve to someone who hates gaming on purpose so then Microsoft can buy it". Every day I pray for the death of PlayStation and Xbox.
>>737721234Purchasing games digitally doesn’t mean you own them
>>737721125i dont fucking buy anything lmaoim not even locked out of anything on my ps5 but online games and redownloading what i boughtim not accepting the terms eat fucking shit sony
>>737721190I haven't turned on my N64 in over a month now, pretty sure the cartridge in it doesn't need to do a fucking internet check to boot up.
>>737721279Nintendo digital games don't have this shit.
>>737721234You know how Sony kicked Microsoft's ass with Xbone because of all the dumb shit they were doing with it? Sony is now straight up implementing said dumb shit.
>>737721159how fucking salt does it make you that i wont buy the ps6 and the most ill buy is a pc handheld to argh on and maybe a cheap mini pc to run the shit the handheld cant runyou fucking faggots broke my ps4 shut down my ps5s onlineand broke 3 of my pcsand wont let me repair the 2 newest oneshow fucking mad does it make you i wont do what you child raping niglets want ?
>>737721359holy schizoid meltdown.
>>737721109>>737721158my bad, i assumed game key cards had a 30 day limitthey're even fucking worse, you need to have them in to play the gamethis is your future
>>737721160I was. Snoys were accusing tendies of "shilling" the kotaku article when no one brought it up but them lmao>>737721234Digital purchases on the playstation now have rental licenses. If you don't connect to the internet after a month to renew, they'll deactivate your game
>>737721234All purchases will now need to be constantly verified online. If 30 days pass without an online check, they will revoke your game license, this also means if something happens to your console, or you put it away for a while, you can just lose the games you purchased with your own money, just like that.
>>737721356This. Fuck Jim Ryan, fuck Herman Hulst. Fuck nu Sony.
>>737721308neither does the PS5, this only happens if you take the CMOS battery in and out, as that resets its internal clock counter and security checks. You can be disconnected from the internet for as long as you want and still play your games, this literally only happens if you intentionally take out and put back in one of the internal components.if you don't take the
>>737719393This shit honestly needs a sticky. This will literally change the whole course of gaming forever.
>>737721127i believe that console users should all be humbled and not get uppity considering they're not administrators of their own hardware
>>737721426Nintendo and PC win. R.I.P PlayStation and Xbox.
>>737721359Keep crying, bitch
Nintendo thread being nintendo thread.For anyone wondering, this is a big nothing burger. You can keep ur PS5 offline for three decades and your games will still work. The games only get confused if you take the system's internal clock component out and put it back in.
>>737719393Consoleplebs get what they fucking deserve. Endless red flags and writing plain as day all over the whole wall the direction consoles were going in for decades and they still bent over and spread their buttcheeks for maximum consolecock depth.
>>737721486pitiful attempt at damage control
Why is Sony so quiet? They released this without prior notice.
>>737721486>You can keep ur PS5 offline for three decadesno, you can'tthe ssd will kill itself by then and you can't replace it since it's soldered
>>737721426I dunno about "forever" but definitely for the foreseeable future.
>>737721474This, I no longer have any trust in either PlayStation or Xbox, if I waste $800-$1000+ on their hardware, I feel like I'm gonna get fucked in the ass.
>>737721486You are a fucking idiot.
So no one is going to actually try to refute the person stating that this only happens if you mess with internal hardware componenets?So I guess it is just tendies being tendies again.
>>737721515Because Microsoft got burned because they said anything at all. Modern Sony thinks "well, if we say nothing what will go wrong?".
>>737719393So Sony never fixed the Cmos thing either?Man all these retards buying digital on consoles are getting scammed and they deserve it.
>>737721394>you need to have them in to play the gameno shit you need to have your game KEY in the console to play your gameand instead you can just buy your game digital and always have it on your console, offline, forever, y'know how shit used to work on playstation until they just decided to fuck us over with 30 forced online check ins on new purchases
This is proof that non-video game companies like Sony and Microsoft, don't belong in the game's industry.
>>737719927What do you consider a Game Key Card?
>someone posts Sony being objectively evil >Uhhhhh yeah but whattabout Nintendo, they could possibly maybe perhaps do this in 2 more weeks based on this revelation I had in a dreamsnoyjeets are so pathetic it's unreal
Funny how snoys continue to bring up game key cards when the only time you'll ever need the internet for it is to install the game then play it offline. Meanwhile playstation wants you connecting to the internet all of the time or else they'll disable your digital purchases
>>737721609let's just ignore all the images in multiple languages that were posted when the news first dropped.
>>737721687I don't buy key cards. I stick with physical carts.
>>737719927No, Nintendo could do this just as easily. Console makers have FULL CONTROL over their console unless you jailbreak it. They can do whatever the hell they want to it whenever they want and you're locked into it. They outright admit to this in their EULAs where you better be a good boy or they'll render your console and software unusable in whole or in part. Consoles are basically nothing more than physical based DRM at this point.
I have not found a single thing online showing or stating that this is a 30 day check. All I can find is that the game doesn't launch if you take the cmos battery out and leave it offline.Are you guys lying to me again?
this is nonsense nothingburger
>>737721609Anon, you are unironically low iq.
>>737721609you're a disingenuous nigger, it happens regardless of the cmos battery in 30 days offline
>>737721729And the guy who literally bought a game to test it
>>737721656>no shit you need to have your game KEY in the console to play your gametherefore it's a pure cost cutting measure on nintendo's part and you're paying for it with your own storage spacethey'll shift more physical to keycards to make it as inconvenient as they can so they can move everything to digital only long termand unlike pc, digital only on consoles is complete goy shit since you control nothing about the hardware itself
>>737721757But they never did it and probably won't do it because of the bad publicity image Xbox and now PlayStation has.
>>737721486>this is a big nothing burgerYou're saying SIE having the ability to remove the games you purchased with your own money if you don't connect your console for 30 days "a nothing burger"? How gapped is your anus from taking so much Sony cock to actually think that this is acceptable?
>>737721726Nintendo starts with game key cards to train its audience, but in the future they may implement worse things, why not?
>>737721757>in their EULAs*ToS, but same difference
The caco is sperging out again, running defense like the good little snoyjeet he is
>>737721832>but they MIGHT do it or something worse!and Playstation MIGHT turn the 30 days into 10shut the fuck up.
>>737721394>they're even fucking worse, you need to have them in to play the gameThe concept of a physical game freaks snoys out
>>737721762Jesus you are so stupid.
>>737721829>How gapedBeyond measure Reminder this Brazil faggot plays wow as a male blood elf paladin and larps as a male gay prostitute
>>737721827Mintendo has followed basically every console cancer introduced by the other two, while coming up with some of their own, they just tend to be a generation behind the curve. It is fully in Nintendo's interest to take away as much control from you as they can. They do know how it looks, that's why they do it slowly.
>>737721762>I have not found a single thing online showing or stating that this is a 30 day check.I find it hard to believe you haven't found a single image of people showing their games only being validated for 30 days or less, you truly must not have looked very hard at all
pirates were right
It really is a shame to see where both PlayStation and Xbox started and seeing where they went today. Damn, I used to enjoy both too.
>>737721870haven't bought a console in a decadei just believe that you people should not get superiority complexes over each othera keycard is just worse physical, it has zero benefit and they're going to use them to wean you off physical
>uhmmmml I haven't seen proof of this (despite proof being posted dozens of time)>yeah okay so maybe it's true>But Nintendo might do this too (they haven't and never will because the switch is a portable device and demanding it to check in online constantly is a death sentenceSnoyjeets are sad and pathetic.
>>737721832>but in the future they may implement worse things,Sure snoy, you can laugh about it WHEN it happens. Right now you're getting buttfucked by your friends at sony and all you can do is make up scenarios about nintendo fucking their consumers
>>737721906Buddy I don't know what to tell you. Switch 2 digital purchases don't have a 30 day drm license check. You can play digital switch games offline. If you ignore key cards, switch 2 is the only offline friendly console out of the three.
What's sony's master plan with this? especially after raiders was confirmed to be 50 bucks digital and xbox lowing gamepass price?
>>737721960>They're going to [schizo fanfic]kwab sybau
>>737721906Not him, everything Nintendo has copied from Xbox and PlayStation isn't anywhere near bad as them while also being cheaper across the board. PlayStation and Xbox are legit anti-consumer. There's a reason Nintendo and Valve won. Neither needs to pay shills to protect their brands.
>>737722012>nintendo cares about methis isn't healthy
>>737722035not what that anon said, tribalist anon.
>>737721983>>737721757
I hate PlayStation fans so fucking much.
>>737722003>xbox lowing gamepass priceI wouldn't really mention this, Microsoft is probably adding a more expensive tier and their next gen is going to be a complete disaster. BTW, Microsoft just announced that the Xbox Helix will be affected by the RAM shortage so $1000 no more, probably $1200+ now.
None of this shit is my problem.
>>737722086all they can do to cope is throw out half assed deflections and lie, it's embarrassing
>>737720108sonyfag SEETHING lmao
>>737722084>th-they might not be doing it, but they COULDand your parents COULD have loved you.
>>737722086Who doesn't?
>>737722059but he didthere is zero reason to assume nintendo is here for youif they were then they would eat the cost of flash memory to maintain physical because their choice of a proprietary and expensive media form factor is at fault herebut they made key cards, where you gain nothing
Man, majority of the posts here is about nintendo or game key cards. Snoys don't know how to fucking defend this shit without bringing up the big bad bing bing wahoo company lmao what's with all this fanfic about "nintendo will do the same but worse!!!"
>>737722175>flash memoryThere are DS games from 20 years ago that still work.
>>737722140And I know for sure Nintendo hates you more than I ever possibly could.
>>737721906Holy fuck Switch 2and one being a success has fucking broken some of yall's damn minds. This dumb meme image somehow become a reality
>>737721937Playstation as a brand has been on the decline since the PS3 anyways. But yeah, it makes you think that once upon a time it was a pretty good deal.
The “pc + Nintendo” shills get more desperate by the day
>>737722263why are you giving human emotions to a corporation?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWSIFh8ICaACan I get a "TIMES CHANGE" from Snoykeks?
>>737722126Literally every remotely negative nintendo thread is endless deflections to sony and snoys. You're all the same.
>>737722302PC and Nintendo are the best choices are right.
>>737722112Everything is affected by the ram shortage. Sony said they weren't and then raised their price months later.
>>737722336Lol
>>737722242that wasn't my pointnintendo chose flash memory instead of discs because flash is fast enough to play the game off themand with keycards you're now using your own storage just like the snoybox with the exception that you no longer have the files on a disc and you have to deal with the anemic built in storage and overpriced sd cards
>>737722310Because I don't view you as human either. You exist just to bend over to corporations.
>>737722302Stop coping and drop your PlayStation or Xbox, m8. It's over.
>>737722383uh oh, someone is having a melty.the stinky jeet is big mad.
>>737722263You should worry about your playstation library because your friends at sony are taking them away, snoy :^)
>>737722396Ok where will I and the unwashed masses play GTA6?
>>737722267Projecting your derangement onto others, it's no wonder they treat you like trash.
>>737722352I'm expecting the PS6 to be $800+ and the Xbox to be $1200+. I feel like Nintendo and Valve somehow always knew this was going to happen, kek.
>>737722327great, call it out when that's done in nintendo threads, but you are quite literally engaging in deflection right now>B-BUH WHAT ABOUT NINTENDOyou literally can't fucking help yourself even when called on it
>>737721486Then where is your proof besides just "trust me bro"
>>737722361But they are. It's the best combo in gaming right now. PC for third party and Nintendo for Mario.
>sony does something stupid>deflection>it's a bug>little to no news sites reporting it>no crazy amount of youtube vids>but nintendo on the other and gets bombarded over largely trivial shit like they fired 1000 employess
>>737722434Just let it die with the rest of the AAA industry; we must return to indies and AAs.
>come into this thread to shit on sony>tendies already infesting it and being so pants on head retarded it's hard not to shit on them insteadMan, I hate all you fucking retards so goddamn much.
>>737722434>GTA6
Snoys are more worried about tendies than themselves apparently
>>737722495sorry your friend betrayed you, snoy
>>737722526We are Charlie Kirk
>>737722547you clearly didn't comprehend the post
>>737722527>>737722434it'd be funny if it got delayed again
>>737722605I comprehended that you are a snoy having a melty.
>>737722459nintendo is in fact part of the problem and the world would benefit from their consoles being gone, just like sony
>>737722526>enters thread to shit on sony>cries that people are shitting on sonyYour post doesn't make sense, snoy
>>737722506The amount of threads about Valve's Steam Controller possibly costing $100 was ridiculous. This is a bigger news thread. Hell, I found it annoying that there was only one thread about the next Xbox not having any third-party stores and that thread died quickly too. It's like shills are trying to keep anything negative about PlayStation and Xbox quiet while wanting Nintendo and Valve to fail.
>>737722629
>>737722506For a reason snoys are the most hated posters in this board, look at the fucking literal anti-consumer bullshit Sony is pulling and look at them trying so hard to make it all about Nintendo. They're just pathetic.
>>737722629Nintendo is keeping the old spirit of console gaming alive in the same way Valve is doing for PC gaming. Losing either would damage the industry greatly. Sony and Microsoft need to go though, both are shitting up American and Japanese gaming as a whole.
>>737719393Boy I really wish I didn't click on this video, this is the most annoying human being I've ever seen
>>737722506Okay so the next time nintendo gets shat on for patenting basic game mechanics and using them to sue developers I can count on you to join in the criticism and not instantly deflect to snoy and screeching about palworld. And now we can all admit what sony is doing is also shitty.
>>737722723what a fucking voodoo excuse lmaoall nintendo does is shit out refreshes of their ips now
>>737721960>haven't bought a console in a decadeThen you're a dumbfuck digital-only PCmutt and you can keep your cuck opinions to yourself, stupid cuck.
>>737722526you don't need to announce that you're falling for their deflection next time
Ever get the feeling nintendo gets so much hate because they're the only non american gaming company? Lets be real sony isn't a japanese company anymore before anyone says anything
physical stays winning
>>737721401and people have the balls to say that steam and nintendo are the worst
>>737722636No, your problem is you try to use it to suck off Nintendo. Just shit on sony you retard. You and snoys are the exact same type of dumbass.
>>737722827>PlayStation
>>737722797what's the point of having physical if it's riddled with drm that cucks your game functionality so hard that they're better played on emulators?
>>737722827truth nuke
>>737722759>patenting basic game mechanics and using them to sue developersHow does this affect consumers?
>>737722838>people try to deflect by lying about Nintendo>people call them out on it>S-Stop talking about Nintendo!Snoy isn't sending their smartest Jeets.
>>737722882Are you retarded?
>>737722904Answer the question
>>737719927Only Steam is safe and that's only as long as Gaben is alive and running it. Nintendo is very greedy and controlling, they'd probably follow suit eventually. They're shifting people toward digital games by making them $10 less expensive than physical games, they could easily exert more control over digital ownership once people get used to buying digital to save $10.
>>737722838I don't see any shilling in here. I see snoys posting their fanfics about nintendo while their friends at sony are screwing them over
>>737722961cool headcanon. What YouTuber gave it to you?
>thread's been successfully derailedthis board's fucking hopeless, 30 day forced online check's gay and retarded
>>737722775Without Nintendo, video games would have turned into shitty hyper-realistic movie slop.
>>737723015I form my own opinions, you should try it :)
>>737722961Gabe will only give Steam to those who share his ideals, Nintendo will always be safe. There won't be a PlayStation or Xbox in the future. AAA gaming lost.
>>737723073"your opinion" sure sounds like the same copes the other snoys have been using.
>>737723008I came in here with the easiest opportunity to have a good time trashing sony, expecting to butt heads with sony fanboys.And instead it's filled with moronic, delusional nintendo fanboys trying to act like nintendo is some savior and can't do the same when that's what their whole push to digital is all about.
It's just been a constant barrage of bad news for snoys, hasn't it? No wonder they're melting so hard.
>>737723061nintendo's not even good at gameplay anymore, all they have is millennial comfort gamesindies have surpassed nintendo already
My PS4 doesn't have that timer thingy, is it PS5 only? I take it with me whenever I travel, should I never update it anymore from now on?
>>737723145maybe stop talking about nintendo and do what you came here to dodefending snoy by derailing the thread
>>737723194PS4 and PS3 have this.
>sony cultist are actually defending thisSonyfags are the same as battered wives. Sony will abuse their fans and their fans will stay loyal to them until the day they die. Fucking pathetic, but I expect nothing less from sonyfags.
>>737723182>zoomer postNot wasting my time
>>737723194PS3 will literally become a brick in the future.
>>737722961>Steam is safe>immediately starts crying about nintendo "killing" physical medialmao
>>737723194https://youtu.be/rXszEM9JO00?si=lDKxKHbJ9oaIQXMk
>>737723214I did, and you've already derailed the thread and until the snoys in this thread become as obnoxious as you lot, I don't want to be on your side.
>>737723226there are like 5 posts defending thisevery other post is trying to knock tendies off their high horse for fighting their holy war
>>737723194as far as I know. games you already bought won't have this, but any future purchases you make will.
>>737723249If nintendo was pc it wouldn't be a problem.
>>737723263Yeah that valid period isn't present on any of my games
>>737723306pitiful brown snoy.
>>737721609The moment they kill the PS4 servers like they did with the PS3, all your digital games die with those servers. They will force you to buy the new hardware and games whenever the fuck they want at the price they want.
>>737723113>Nintendo will always be safeNintendo used to be controlling with publishers, just recently they fought for FF14 to have an entirely separate sub on the Switch 2 as well. Maybe it's because I was around for Yamauchi era Nintendo but I don't share that faith in them that you have. Nintendo also denies crossplay for a lot of games, if they are this controlling with publishers still I wouldn't rule out Nintendo being more controlling with customers too.>>737723119Cool, I'll take your word for it but see above if you want my rationale.
>>737723353It only works with new purchased games after March. Also it's a new update so you probably haven't updated your console yet.
>>737723308Oh, gotcha, fuck
>>737723242>no, you don't get it, we need nintendo to shit out mediocre platformers, they're le sovl
>>737723306lmao whatever you say sony cultist. Don't forget to polish hermans balls when you're done sucking him off.
>>737723420They should be more controller with publishers given how said publishers act now.
>>737723436Time to build a PC and buy switch 2.
>>737723113>Nintendo will always be safeI will never understand how anyone could have any faith or goodwill in Nintendo at this point.
>>737723459We don't need PlayStation or Xbox at all, hell we don't even need Sony or Microsoft, in general. All gaming must return to REAL console and PC gaming.
>>737722506same vibes
this is the fakest shit ever you're all retarded
>>737723484there is no difference between the red cult and the blue cult, you're just waving your flaggot a question for you, what proof would you accept that i don't have any affiliation with sony?
>>737723593looks like we circled back around to the "it's fake" cope.
>>737723498I have a mid range PC running linux and a switch 1 with mostly physical games, it just sucks because my PS4 is basically my Elden Ring/Dark Arisen machine I take places lol
just buy physical ps5 games now
>>737723564no, consoles need to gotheir very premise is to strip your rights away and insult your intelligence
>>737723306I take solace in knowing they hurt when nintendo fucks them over, and that happens a lot. Just remember they'll be in their own threads acting like none of it matters and deflecting to snoys when it comes around for them.
>>737723573They make games. Nintendo protags are white. Nintendo won.
>>737723647games?
>>737723492Denying crossplay is just a faggot move through and through, Sony did the same thing with the PS4 and were massive faggots for it. Sony also went from denying crossplay to having this 30 day check in on games so yeah, I only have faith in Steam and that's only as long as Gaben is in charge.Even with games that have crossplay like Warframe, if you buy plat on the Switch you can't trade it to anyone outside of the Switch ecosystem, meanwhile PC/PS/Xbox players can all trade it amongst each other.
>>737723539>paid online is lower than both PlayStation and Xbox>Free-to-Play games are actually free to play>lowers the price of their digital games>with Game Key Cards, allow for you to give your friends and family digital games without it being locked to your system>still makes fun gameplay-focused color and quirky games>pushing heavily for indies and AA games>makes AA games>didn't give up on JapanThey have their issues but compared to Sony and Microsoft, they look like saints.
>>737723647>>737723684Physical?
>>737723691Gabe isn't your friend, anon.
It's funny that this whole thread devolved into>b-but what about nintendo?fucking pathetic
>>737723770that's the snoy MO. always deflect, always lie.
>>737721762You lie to yourself.
>>737723736No shit, but Steam is much more open than everything else because Gabe is more hands off since he's out on his yachts all the time and collecting passive revenue for doing nothing.
>>737723710I don't want to play games at 30 fps, and Nintendo's online is barely functional.
>>737723810
>>737723736empowering the user by funding and working on linux is directly contrary to what consoles are doing by tightening security and insisting on tougher anti tamper measures
>>737723810Your lost pal. Keep waiting 10 years for a new Sony game that's going to start a black chick with no gameplay.
>>737723736NTA, but he doesn't have to be, he just has to know that serving the consumer is the best business strategy and he does, since it's bought him every yacht he lays eyes on.Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft,Epic, etc. still actively hate their consumers too much to ever do that, I guess.
>>737723770
>>737723823Then enjoy your locked-down $700 PS6 handheld, $900 PS6 home console, and $1200 next gen Xbox.
>>737723919enjoy your live service slop.
>>737723659Sure buddy, I'll wait until the day nintendo fucks their consumers harder than sony did with snoys right now. For now you can keep pretending game key cards are the worst things ever made or whatever
>>737723859They're funding and working on ARM translation layers now too. Which is massive for the handheld emulators that use Android, they can now play some Steam games straight from your library. Newer flagship Phones can as well.
>>737723918>still can see the 'M'Pathetic
>>737723605>but what about nintendo?Where did I say nintendo you fucking sony cultist?
>>737724013>says this while defending snoyzero self-awareness
>>737719393Consoles are DRM all the way down, this is just yet more of it. If you haven't seen this coming and abandoned consoles yet, you're just an idiot, it's that simple. And lmao at all the clueless tendies trying to gloat.
>So many times they killed me,>So many times I died,>Yet here I am,>Rising again...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaRCevcHGcI
>more "bugs" than games
>>737724015i know this is the level of unreasonable vitriol only you people sling between each othernow answer the question, do you believe i can prove my way out of being persona non grata in your mind? if not then reexamine your own behavior
>>737724094kek
>>737723974I see you in the exact same way I see snoys. You're both nothing more than cattle.
>>737724094>more controllers than games>more price hikes than games>more beehives than games>more controversies than games> more presidents than games>more flops than games
>?si=rYv94mg_mi02zomR
>>737723674>They make games. Like the new Yoshi game where it's impossible to get a game over.......
>>737724190so it's like the GOTY Astro Bot? sounds perfect for snoys then.
>>737723770Kind of hard not to when tendies are constantly announcing how retarded they are throughout the thread. Such an easy opportunity to just shit all over Sony and they're fucking it up.
>>737723983yes, it's good, i'm hoping there's going to be a knock on effect from proton and lepton that will give phone oems incentive to not lock their shit up so i can install proper linux on them
>
>>737724230snoys brought up nintendo first.
>>737724210>>737724230lmao can you sonyfags not think about nintendo for one second?
>>737724229Snoys keep proving themselves that they don't play the games they shill here. It's no wonder why astrobot flopped despite being the only good game on the barrierstation
>>737724229What's your favorite Astro Bot level? Has it been over 30 days since you played it?
>>737724338nigger, I was making fun of snoys.
Sony has never been able to innovate and only excels at copying and that same ability to copy will lead them towards the path microshit is on
>b-but NINTENDO!Are these motherfuckers serious? A draconian, completely fucking anti-customer system that Sony tried to slip by undetected was detected and these retards can only think of their goddamn console war baby shitflinging game?
>>737723983>They're funding and working on ARM translation layers now tooPeople are trying to lump Valve and Nintendo together, but if they were even remotely similar, Nintendo would've been the one making an ARM compatibility layer, even just for their own backwards compatibility, given they actually use ARM. They'd still never open source it like Valve, but they'd at least make it. It's baffling how anyone could even begin to think Nintendo is anywhere near consumer friendly.
>>737724405they're already on it.
Happened on my PS3 today. I made a thread about it but it died.Fuck Sony. I'm NEVER giving them another dime again. This shit is so inconvenient. I'll be pirating SIMPLY FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF BEING ABLE TO PLAY THE FUCKING GAME IT'S EASIER TO PIRATE THAN TO FUCKING OWN
>>737719393Hi Jez Corden. This isn't working.
>>737719393>this retard is taking apart his playstation to prove somethingYeah, I will never log into my psn and not have the games I paid for. This is a complete nothingburger. Even if I open my PS4 or PS3 to clean it, I will still have those games.
>>737724421What does Nintendo need to do that for? Nintendo is there to help console gaming, not turn it into PC gaming, Valve is there to help PC gaming, not make a console. Both help the entire gaming industry as a whole returning it to the 80s-early 2000s Sony and Microsoft took gaming away from.
>>737724417b-b-but nintendo != stfu retarded tendie, nintendo rapes you tooThe thread is full of the later.
>>737724507>nothing burgerupdate your script jeet, that's already been posted multiple times.
>>737723647>physical>ps5>gamesPick one, and only one.
>>737724472What happened exactly?
Again, if I'm ever at a point in my life where I don't have internet or can't afford internet; then playing faggot ass games on a fucking PS5 of all things is the least of my concerns or priorities. Grow up, retards.
>>737724421Nintendo is threatened by an ARM translation layer because it means there's less reason for people to buy into their ecosystem. Valve only benefits from it because it means people on phones can buy games on Steam, that Epic vs Apple lawsuit actually makes it incredibly favorable for Valve to work on a translation layer now since they can sell games on mobile without Apple/Google taking a 30% cut.
>>737724559>so what if it's happening? how does that affect you?
>>737724158
It's ok when Nintendo does it though.
>>737724524Kill yourself you goddamn moron, this is a thread for rightfully calling out Sony for fucking up as colossally as this.
>>737724519>>What does Nintendo need to do that for?I literally gave Nintendo a self-serving, yet still at least somewhat consumer friendly reason.
>>737724604When did Nintendo do it?
>>737724524>nintendo rapes you tooWhat did nintendo do exactly?
>>737724543All those words you said have been posted in the thread already, have sex. I still have my games.
>>737721401Do you permanently lose access, or will you get it back when you reconnect to the network? This is an abominably shitty practice all around, but if the loss of access is permanent, I'm absolutely fucking done with this company.
>>737724645what games?
>>737724595How does it affect you? Or anyone? Seems like you just want to bitch and moan for the fuck of it. Endless threads of how PS5 has no games and how PlayStation sucks and no one should buy it but fucking suddenly >WAH WAH! I CAN'T LE HECKIN PLAY BULLSHIT OFFLINE WAHH! Get your life together, fatass.
>>737723674>Nintendo protags are whiteretard have you seen the main character for the new fire emblem game?
>>737724405I think it's funny how Sony is moving away from digital when their biggest impact on gaming at large is facilitating the adoption of discs as a viable format for vidya, be it CDs, DVDs or Blu-rays. I don't know if they're the first to do it, but they were by leaps and bounds the most important with the PS1 and PS2.
>>737720461I've already jumped ship to PC after Sony didn't release a single game on the PS5 for 5 years.
>>737724657Why would it be permanent you fucking retard?Jesus Christ you people need to fucking die for lacking common sense
>>737724605Yes, it is, so tendies should shut the fuck up because right now they're being too retarded to just let the rest of us shit on sony in peace.
>>737724519>help console gamingconsole is just a term for a box so heavily caked with drm that you control fucking nothing about itwhy the fuck do you think it needs to be promoted?you achieve the exact same fucking result by plugging a controller into a living room pc box but without the humiliation ritual
>>737724698>it's okay when sony does it.shoo shoo stinky jeet.
Is it just NEW games you buy that do this now?Because if so I'm happy with what I got in my library, but this is still incredibly retarded.
>>737719393Console PC's are fucking retarded to begin with.
>>737724801New games you buy.
>>737720437>huh, I thought that’s how it always worked. Anyway…>yoooo the amount of cope and damage control from snoys when this news dropped was insane.
>>737724564>Nintendo is threatened by an ARM translation layerThey wouldn't be if it was just their ARM compatibility layer. That's why I said they would never open source it. The problem is they don't want actually good backwards compatibility either, they want low effort rentals and for consumers to rebuy games over and over.
Does this affect PS3? I've mulled over getting some of the PS1/2 classics before that store shuts down for convenience's sake.
>>737719927They're safe for the immediate future. Anyone who thinks this is a line ANY of the major publishers wouldn't cross are out of their goddamn minds. PC is the only safe platform because of piracy and platforms like GOG (for however long it lasts), anyway, you better believe you get access to your steam library only because of Gabe's "goodwill" which could be rescinded at any time.
>>737724883That's something. But still incredibly stupid. I don't know how these companies come up.with this shit and think "hmmm okay this won't backfire at all :)"
>>737724756I notice that you aren't calling out the snoys that brought up Nintendo in the first place. Hmmmmm
>>737724950Seems it's a new thing going forward. It's a good time to just never buy a console ever again.
>>737724746I have common sense, you absolute fucking mongoloid. It's Sony's apparent lack of common sense that I'm worried about. Permanently revoking a licence for not checking in every 30 days sounds like the kind of bullshit those greedy bastards would do.That's why I asked the question. I can cope with the monthly check-in if there is not going to be a case of "oops, your Internet was down on the check-in date" causing me to potentially lose all my shit forever.
>>737719393It's a bug, already confirmed
>>737725016That's not what's happening, they're not taking away your shit, you just need to connect online to keep playing.It's still dogshit, but they're not torching your library for not checking in every 30 days.
>>737725062confirmed where?
>>737725062By an "anonymous source".
>jailbreak>PS4>Star Wars Racer exploitshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXszEM9JO00
>>737725147Then why have the check in the first place?
You aren't entitled for permanent free access to licenses forever.
>>737724472this one? >>737709938
>>737721687A digital game, only better. Or are you one of those retards who doom and gloom about GKC without understanding how they work?
>>737724991https://youtu.be/iQEpL0P8qgY?si=8ZS3PfogAhw3j9F9It's more effective when you pace it out. Also considering the snoys here defending it, it's working.
>>737725413>betterit's a physical game but now the game is taking up your storageyou get none of the convenience of digital
>>737725302That's pretty standard DRM bullshit, Denuvo does the exact same thing. It's why I pirate those games, especially with my Deck.
>>737724472>>737725367didn't happen schizo
>>737724950>Does this affect PS3? I've mulled over getting some of the PS1/2 classics before that store shuts down for convenience's sake.Bro just use duckstation, pcsx2 and rpcs3There's no use for sony consoles anymore
It's objectively the correct and moral thing to hack your console
>>737719676Microsoft had it as a policy but there's no official statement from Sony on this. FUD
THIS SHIT IS FAKER THAN LAST NIGHTS SHOOTING
>>737725656Snoys really are the ostriches of gaming
>>737719393You can't hate sony hard enough
You would think if it was actually a bug that Sony would come out and say that it is a bug and that a fix is coming soon to prevent undue bad PR and panicking from consumers as quickly as possible, yet the only ine saying this is unintentional is an unnamed source.
>thread activity just suddenly diesThe jeets clocked out i guess
>>737722827I did none of these games
>>737724170what's that for?
>>737725896They ran out of nintendo stuff to cry about
>>737725896One can only samefag so much until it’s just schizo babble
>>737725896you didn't give me (You)s when i was bashing consoles as a whole so it's pretty clear you're in it to be a flagellant for your side

>>737725896They ran out of Steam.
>>737724746Because the post he was replying to implied just that.
>>737723179I don't remember the last time they had good news.
>>737724552>decided to play some more FF8 today (after a few months of not turning on PS3)>turn on>can't use software without system update because license validation expiration>oh fuck>new TOS>exploitative bullshit>FINE>go to turn on game>license valid time and license expiration time listedIt's just the last straw for me. I had a hell of a time signing into my fucking Vita overseas because of some fucking 16 digit code I had to do from my email onto the device to validate it, apparently my PSN email and password weren't good enough. And I had to do this five times for some fucking reason until it stuck.I've lost hours of my life to anti piracy bullshit that I wouldn't have if I had just pirated in the first place. At this point, Sony is KILLING ME. A little bit at a time. So fuck them, I'm pirating for the rest of my life and encouraging everyone else to do the same.
>>737723179>>737726334They tried to pull Saros as [Good News] but then they realized no one cared. Naturally, they just skipped to "[insert remake] isn't coming to Switch 2, you lost!">>737726238
>>737725413NTA but the perk of a digital game like MKW is that you can play it whenever you want without swapping the current cartridge out, meaning you'll play it a lot more because you can pick up your Switch 2 whenever and play a round or 2.GKCs don't have this. You have to take the current cartridge out, put the GKC in, then when you're doing playing a couple rounds you have to take the GKC one and then put whatever other game you were playing back in.
>>737725367Yes.>>737725469Don't believe me if you like, I don't care. I've made up my mind about that entire fucking company. I hope they go bankrupt. I know they won't because of music and movies but I'll pray for it anyway.
>>737726430>>737726271and here comes the /pol/ folder dump
>>737726334For me, it was when MediEvil was announced to be getting a faithful PS4 remake. That was back in 2019, and as much as I enjoyed it, it was also just a remake. I think Gravity Rush 2 was the last original release from them that I was really into.
>>737726412https://cdromance.org/psx-iso/final-fantasy-viii-usa/https://github.com/stenzek/duckstationhttps://www.gog.com/en/game/final_fantasy_viii_remasteredit just works bro
>>737726564I really enjoyed the remake. Shame we never got MediEvil 2R.>>737726520Cry about it.

>>737726848It really is season 4 was shit though
>>737726924>>737726683not obsessed btw
>>737726848Based nigger lover.
>>737726596Yeah, I know how to pirate. Back in 2009 I made a conscious decision not to to support Sony and game studios.Now I'm fucking over it. This has been building for a long time. Indie devs WILL be collateral damage to this, but nobody's entitled to waste my time like this.
>>737725896Xbox niggers got exhausted ragebaiting themselves
>>737725460>>737726459On the other hand, you can lend the card to your friend or family member and they'll be able to play it just fine. Or sell the card and get back some of the money to buy other games. Things you can't do with a purely digital purchase.
>>737727068Square-Enix and Capcom have already left Sony for Nintendo
>>737719393Huh, i bought 13 digital games on my PS5 and sold the console like 2 or 3 weeks ago. I still have my account and all, but what does this mean? When I eventually get the PS6 i won't be able to install those games i already purchased?
>>737727319Nintendo's digital game cards do allow you to share digital games with a friend or family member. It's just not being able to sell the digital games but GKCs aren't going to hold their value as long as actual physical releases, with the exception of Pokopia because it's Pokemon. Even right now many GKC prices are dropping near $20-$30 so your resale value isn't going to be that high unless you immediately pump and dump the game but you could have just borrowed it from your library or something in that case.The reality is that as a consumer, GKCs are just kinda shit. Partially because they're mostly third parties and you can do a lot better playing them elsewhere. Sometimes the PS5 version is fully on disc in the case of something like RE9 or Pragmata.
>>737726412Pic or didn't happen
>>737726945Frankly, I'm glad we're not getting a season 5. We only need the first 3 seasons.
>>737721234same thing valve has done for over a decade with occasionally requiring an online check
>>737720108Why are tendies always like this?
>>737727897Steam however is infinitely better about BEING ABLE TO LOG IN TO THE FUCKING SERVICE and also playing offline. Have they implemented a thirty day revalidation thing? Back when I was on deployment I was offline for like 8 months and had no problem playing games, but that was in 2016.
>>737727912Nintendo have the only games worth playing outside of multiplats. You know this, brownoid.
>>737727912It's because people with nintendo consoles usually have a second complimentary console. Some have a playstation, some (like me) have an Xbox, and others have a PC. It's not hard to understand unless you're a console warrior (like you).
>>737721719It's always the same thing with snoys: it doesn't matter when Sony does something bad but it's a company destroying event if another company does it. They've been pulling this garbage for so long yet they still always act genuinely surprised and victimized when someone throws their shit back at them.
>>737728035>>737728061Instantly jump out to prove the point with a lack of self awareness as always.
>>737728062But enough about the kikes.
>>737719927God no, only PC is safe because it's actually open and if worst comes to worst and Valve/GOG go full retard and want to flush away all their goodwill and money down the toilet you can just pirate.
>>737728104>STOP CALLING ME OUT
>>737728104so it's not true?
>>737727912Because right now they can try to weaponize PC against Sony while ignoring this very thing could easily happen to them too. They'll turn right around and shit all over PC again whenever the Deck's superiority gets brought up or they need to screech about emulation or they think they can gloat because they simply got a (inferior) multiplat.
watching now thanks fren>25:15wasn't the CMOS battery issue fixed on the ps4 and even retroactively on the ps3?
>>737728035>Nintendo have the only games worth playing outside of multiplatsCitation needed
>>737728345>this very thing could easily happen to them too2 more weeks.
>>737727897Valve doesn't do this, fuck off
>>737728410>two more weeks, nintendo does this>well it's not that big a deal and duh snoys!Just like paid online and everything else. You and snoys are the same.
>>737719512>>737719596The bug was being able to see that there's a 30-day time limit on all digital content before requiring an online renewal.>>737719927Only the "free" shit that comes with an NSO subscription like the emulators, Tetris 99, Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion, BotW/TotK Switch 2 Edition, etc. Shit you buy off the eshop with money only checks if your account is tied to the console you're playing on, and if for whatever reason you logged onto another console to access your digital purchases then you need to do the online handshake again (once) when going back to the previous console.
For those wondering how Sony's faithful are doing.
>>737728525See you in two weeks then.
lol looks like the snoys are back to deflecting
>>737723647>just buy physical ps5 games now>significant portion of PS5 physical games only have a launcher on the disc and require you to download most/all of the game anywaysPS5 games might not have a game key card equivalent but most of them are pulling the exact same bullshit, if not worse because the box doesn't really advertise it.
>>737728645what's the problem? looks like /v/ was wrong yet again
>>737727897Valve doesn't own your hardware Sony and Nintendo do That's the difference
>>737728525Still waiting for the switch 2 price hikes for tariffs and RAM because playstation did it
>>737724950>before that store shuts downPS3's online store has been 95% gutted bro, you can't buy shit anymore. And why are you trying to buy digital games on your PS3? Just jailbreak it with a few file transfers and get them for free.
>>737728821>significant portion of PS5 physical games only have a launcher on the disc and require you to download most/all of the game anywaysThat's not even remotely true. Most PS5 games are fully on the disc.
>>737728891hi tripster

>>737728645Oh wow. Now I understand why snoys are leftists, they will bend the truth to their reality.
>>737729096Uh-oh!

>>737728992>Pedoster: "Playing a switch 2 is the same as killing yourself"
>>7377193There is nothing wrong with month old checks, you retards act like we exist in a world where someone can go that long without wi fi and as if it deletes the game from your hard drive
>>737729073>Nintendo defense forceThanks for revealing yourself snoy but I guess everyone already knew you were pretending to hate both sides
>>737728964>Most PS5 games are fully on the disc.I suppose if you count every single piece of shovelware that's only like 800MB then sure the majority of the 1200+ PS5 games out there are fully on the disc, but any of the titles people actually go out of their way to play on PS5 are either going to require a download to install the game or need a day 1 update of some kind because the game that's on the disc is broken as shit.
>>737729416I've been shitting on Sony throughout the thread, I just think consoles themselves are worthless cancer and that inevitably sets off you fags. You and snoys are the same.
>>737724775>console is just a term for a box so heavily caked with drm that you control fucking nothing about itThat's the point>why the fuck do you think it needs to be promoted?Mass market wants to get consoles at an affordable price. Consoles are meant to be toys, Sony and Microsoft forgot about that.>you achieve the exact same fucking result by plugging a controller into a living room pc box but without the humiliation ritualPCs are for a niche nerd market which is why it costs more, that's why Nintendo Switch vs Steam Deck comparisons are retarded and always have been every time some tendie or Vegan brings it up.Consoles were always meant for kids, PCs were always meant for adults, fuck Sony and Microsoft for destroying the meaning of a console while trying to kill PC gaming.
>>737729404keep sucking sony's cock faggot
>>737729551You've been whining about "nintendo shills" this entire thread while also pretending you hate sony. No one is falling for your act

>>737729640meds
>>737728645/v/ is wrong as usual, the fact it’s a ps1 game from the ps3 store is laughable

>>737727912Nintendo has games though, that's why they're winning. Your image is retarded.>emulationDoesn't mean shit, if it's not on a store that you're purchasing from, it means nothing. Emulation just means you're poor thirdie that can't purchase games. You make me sick, not because you're emulating console games, but because you devalue PC games by ignoring them.

>>737719927Yea so is Xbox but Indians with Scampass have basically ruined it so Nintendo and PC are the last bastions of gaming.
>>737730000You first, retarded pajeet shill
>>737729930All games become pc games, even console ones, as they gain pc features through emulation
>>737719676Not really. I love Playstation and I'll gladly put up with whatever they do to me.
>>737729961Photoshop, psn licences don’t have “end dates”
>>737730112>Nintendo and PCThe fuck are you?
>>737729930Holy cope.
>>737730112You’re brown
>>737729762I'm not wrong though, Switch 2 vs Steam Deck, man. But, like I said, no matter how much Sony and Microsoft seem to hate hearing the truth, consoles are for kids, they're not for adults.>>737729919Fuck you, it was great before Microsoft shitted it up.
>>737729864>>737729961You guys are fucking stupid. You pay for ps + and as long as you have it you have the games, if you cancel ps + you will lose access to those games. It's been like that for years, you fucking silly monkeys.
>>737730178>TV screen was photoshoppedah, there's that cope again
>>737730254>consoles are for kids>*said the switch 2 fan*
>>737730112And you tards refuse to see this coming on the console you no longer own and wonder how to this could possibly have happened to you. PC is the only bastion of gaming.
>>737730308A photoshopped image can easily be projected through a ps3/ps4/ps5 onto a television screen, yes
>>737730254>kids deserve to get screwedInteresting yet not unexpected take coming from someone on /v/.
>>737730293Again, retard, people that are reporting it are doing so from purchased digital games, not PS+Oh who am I kidding you already know this, but keep deflecting like a fucking faggot.
>>737730254I don't care about your childhood nostalgia, consoles are defined by being a limitation, nothing moreMaybe I'd respect them if they were just their own Linux distros that focus on their own store like what SteamOS is doingRight now they're actively locking the hardware down because they know they can't compete if they don't put up walls for their customers to prevent them from escaping
>>737719393Makes me wonder if steam have similar checks tied to the cmos. I doubt it, but it would suck.
>>737730178>>737730381>the photoshop excuseHoly shit. You wouldn't believe the nose on your face if Sony said so.>>737730293You snoys need to get your stories straight unlike Tripster
>>737719393Well, I hate Playstation fans, so any bad news is welcome but who doesn't have an internet connection in 2026?
>>737730523Odd way of saying you have no real proof
>>737730517You can play games offline indefinitely on steam. If they ever implemented something like this pc users would riot. It'd be like baking denuvo into steam.
>>737730595You've literally been given proof time and time again, but you choose to regret it. It's a bug, but it's also just PSPlus, but also photoshop, but also Nintendo would do it worse. You lost. Period.
>>737730614Good to know fat fuck is still on our side.
>>737730595Your "proof" is some retard with a pro-sony bias claiming it's a bug. The 30 day timer thing has been proven to be real by multiple people so stop dickriding sony because you think they're your friends
>>737730595>IT'S NOT HAPPENING!!!>>737730545>And if it is it ain't a bad thing.>>737730479>And if it is then Nintendo/Xbox are just as bad/All consoles are badBehold, the Snoy prayer
>>737721420If you don't take the what???
>>737719393I still play my ps3 and this is a thing on that too, the internal battery is fucked so in order to play any digital games on it i have to set the clock using the an internet connection to get my digital games to work again.
>Thread starts up again after Xbox niggers had a little ten minute nap
>>737730952>you're shitting on all consoles so you must be a snoyare you sane? I'll ask this of you what mechanism would exonerate me of being a snoy in your mind?
>>737731134>[schizo hallucinations]
>>737731142By not derailing a thread about specifically shitting on Snoy by deflecting to all consoles while falseflagging as a PCvegan?Do you think I was born yesterday?
This is a non issue anyway. If you don't have a way to get on the internet for a whole month, you have bigger issues to think about. Or you're on vacation so it shouldn't matter to you anyway.
>>737731238>you're pretending to be the member of the majority demographic of this boardno, I'm just not engaging in your gay minority partisanship and I don't believe you're any better or that you deserve to gloat about anything
>>737719393My Xbone used to do that if I was disconnected from the internet for too long, even with disc games.
>it's not that big a deal>you don't have internet?>b-b-but Nintendo>bug>PS+>fuckin' photoshopsnoys will literally say anything to defend Sony except play games
OK so lemme get this straightIf your console is offline after a certain period, it locks your games.But the game is still there on the storage.And you aren't connected to the Internet, so Sony isn't looking.So... what's stopping us from cracking the lock?
>>737731142Tendies are retarded, don't engage with it. They're not here for the right reasons, they'd bend right over and gape their ass if it happened to them, which at this rate is inevitable.
Kek
>>737731273What if the servers are down? What if they turn off the servers for legacy devices like the PS3? You're retarded or Jewish.
>>737721916>https://www.youtube.com/live/N0UuTNyDobo?si=rYv94mg_mi02zomRHOW DO YOU PULL THIS UP?!I been trying to chekc on my Ps5 to confirm
PlayStation NEVER EVER.
If you don't have internet in 2026 I think you have bigger issues to worry about than video games
>>737731480Until then, snoys will do it for Sony and say it's just a bug/PS+/photoshop.
>>737731572Seems that way. Fanboys of all stripes are morons with the only difference being which corporation they blow.
>>737731507It's a good thing Sony's servers are top of the line and don't get hacked every few years. That would be inconvenient.
>defending “SNOY”How very Jewish and brown…
Schizophrenia isn't a replacement for a personality.
>>737731763I know, right? Imagine thinking a greedy companies clearly taking away your consumer rights and thinking it's a bug/just PS+/photoshop.
>>737731507The servers won't be down for a whole month idiot. Also if they ever decided to shut the servers down completely it's because they are probably on the PS7 or PS8 by then, meaning if you're still on a PS3, that's your own fault for making a bad decision. Nobody is going back and plugging up their NES or Atari 2600. When Sony shuts down the PS3 servers, you'll be in your 50s or 60s and it won't matter. If you desperately need to play an old video game that requires old antiquated hardware to play, you need to reevaluate yourself.
>>737719872How weird, why on the Series S but not on the Series X?
>>737731507By that time Stop Killing Games will be in effect and they'll have to provide a way to play it all offline, which they already have now, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
>>737730423Why should kids get the full freedom of PC gaming?>>737730323Yes>>737730479>I don't care about your childhood nostalgia, consoles are defined by being a limitation, nothing moreBecause they're made for kids>Maybe I'd respect them if they were just their own Linux distros that focus on their own store like what SteamOS is doingPC gaming is Steam, nothing more>But Nintendo canlose, PC gaming is Steam, you're retarded for siding with anyone other than Valve on PC.>But GOGSteam, shut up>Right now they're actively locking the hardware down because they know they can't compete if they don't put up walls for their customers to prevent them from escapingYes, that's how consoles always worked, exclusives sell hardware, without them, they would be an Xbox.
>>737731480Sony Vs Nintendo is literally just India Vs PakistanIrrelevant conflicts that look foolish to everyone, they both want to be the king of shit mountain and assume that if you don't like them you must be their mortal enemy
>>737731910Series X has a disc drive, so you can just play the physical game on that one.
>>737722459Why would there be such a huge gap in price when their current gen top models are about the same price?
>>737728645>anonymosu insider confirms its just a bug>crisis averted:DDpeopel actually falling for this
>>737730946>pajeet pretending he doesn’t know what photoshop is
>>737732038There's nothing preventing consoles from having their identity without being anticonsumer black boxes you can't ownNothing except them being unable to compete or coexist with steamThe fact that you're shitting your pants and making excuses shows you have nothing to support them besides the appeal to their seniority
>>737732038Shut up retard. You're making pcchads look like idiots
>>737731082Exactly this is how it’s always been for digital games, pc troons trying to act like this is suddenly a bad thing
>>737721932they were always right. /v/ was just retarded.
>>737722685You can tell this guy trained as an engineer or programmer from that quote. No MBA would ever say or even quietly think something like that.
>>737730096>now sony requires you to connect to the internet to renew your game license each monthbut its okay when Steam requires you to do it
>>737732561Steam actually doesn't require that, I had my Steam Deck in airplane mode for like a month, and it didn't stop me from playing any of my games.
>>737732118Because Microsoft's retarded asses are using 48GB of GDDR7 and over 70 CUs of an off the shelf GPU. Their silicon is a chiplet and the custom chip will have 100 TOPS NPU. Sony doesn't have any of that shit.
The Jews murdered JFK, bombed the USS Liberty, and bombed the Twin Towers.
>>737732038I don't think even you know what opinion you're trying to hold, the mental gymnastics are too great.

>>737732561I've never had that problem in Heroic or Lutris
>>737721827>thinking nintendo of all companies cares about bad PRlmaoooooooo
Just checked games I got this month. None have this. Why the fuck you lying /v/?
>>737733124You wouldn't want to do that. I look like I'm from /g/.
I laughed at this, unpluged the LAN cable and turned on my PS4 to check. Saw nothing like this. Plugged the LAN back in and got asked to sign into the Playstation Network and agree to a new Terms of Service. Now I'm sweating bullets.Did anything change in the Terms of Service that I could look up before agreeing?
>>737719676Lmfao
>>737733805I updated to the the latest version. Nothing changed.
>>737720108>Nintendo and Valve, with Steam, are the only ones that are safe.Lol nice try nintentoddler, don't lump your DOGshit keycards and future license checks in with us PC gods
>>737720601Not according to the agreements you agreed to faggot
>>737733805Oh shit wait nevermind. I'm on PS5.
>>737720732>You can play your Steam games offlineWith a regular online check in, literally the same as snoy. Actually worse though because once you get locked out of steam offline you lose ALL your games, retarded ninty
>>737729930>Nintendo has games though, that's why they're winning. Your image is retarded.That's got nothing to do with you trying to lump yourselves and your keycards in with PC gods LOL, nice try. At this point you might as well be a snoyfag
>>737733074RAM shortage is bad and the price of RAM even for big companies have increased, Microsoft wants a 48GB one in their next console, that's a lot of money, wanting 68 compute units is very expensive especially since they're using an AT2 RDNA 5 GPU, and the most expensive component is the dedicated NPU in the already expensive custom APU. Chiplets are also more expensive than monolithic while having chiplet tax to boot. This is why the next Xbox is going to be well over $1000. It's a PC, but locked down like a console.
>>737734289Mother fucker, PC doesn't even have physical media anymore.
>>737734201>With a regular online check in, literally the same as snoy.Nope, you can use Steam offline and play any of your installed games indefinitely.They kind of have to do that now that they're selling a portable gaming device, and some people who own one might be going months without access to an internet connection.
So, did Sony confirm this was a bug yet officially, yes or no?
>>737734430No statement as of yet.
>>737734124Okay, I'll bite. What are you on about?
>>737734359Right, it just lets you straight up have access to the files to do what you want with and make your own physical media instead. Physical is a hard cope for consolefags stuck with a prison box.
>>737734359You can just pirate a game and burn it to literally whatever physical media you want.One guy burned Factorio to 1000 floppy disks.https://youtu.be/cTPBGZcTRqo
