Sony has earned lots of enemies and angry costumers this year.

Stuff like DLC and expantion packs shouldn't be items for sale. It's like you buy an incomplete game and then you have to buy the other things to complete it. Before, this never would have happened. They release unfinished games on PSN for selling and they want you to buy the other pieces.

Now, you can't share your "intangible" games anymore.

Really, this is the first time I say this: "Sony, you are loosing some bunch of costumers" (as my brother and me had bought lots of games for all your consoles). Sad, really sad.

WOW, it's incredible how in 1/3 of a gaming gen sony has managed to destroy the love and respect I had for them. God knows I've always detested other sony electronics because they are overpriced pieces of regular crap (not bad, but NOT worth what they ask), but the playstation side I thought was just pure genius.

I felt the psx saved me from the horrible N64 (which NOW I appreciate more), and the utter joy I got from the PS2 can only be compared to what I got out of the SNES.

Anyways, no it's not right. Sony need to learn to own up to their actions and stop this whole bait n' switch crap; and dismissing this is just like all those idiots who dismissed the removal of OtherOS as no biggie. If they don't plan to follow through with their ideas then don't start.

Sony should be forced to buy back the ps3s of those of us who feel the ps3 is too different in it's current feature set then it was when we bought it. Sure they've added some features, but the removal of features have been solely for their benefit.

What's even more laughable is that ZERO pirates will be bothered by this, and they will still keep playing games. The only ones who will suffer the effects of this are people that actually pay for their games; regardless of whether they get together with 2 friends to buy DLC or not, at least they are still buying. As always, the gaming industry (to be fair is not only sony) proving yet again that piracy is the easiest way to enjoy gaming.

Sony and gameloft are on my ish list. I won't say never, but it's going to be highly doubtful I ever buy a product from either company... they need to remember something, I pay them for their products, they don't give them to me.

P.S. Not saying I endorse piracy, but for example, the only way I've been able to play one of the gameloft games that I've bought for my android phone has been to download a copy off the web... yes that's right, I bought a damn game and I had to pirate it in order to play it.

I'm not gonna comment anymore on this story other than to say if your best argument is "you're a fanboy" then you've already lost!

i LOVE PIRACY altho i dont have pirated games yet.. honestly i dont, i would never buy my games digitally again though like on steam or origin. simply for 3 reasons 1 i pay the same but no dvd/bd manual(printd) or cover) 2 i must sacrefice 4-50GB of my HDD assuming i get 1TB for $100 0.4%-5%x$100 i have to pay to store the stuff sure sure you can redownload 3 what if the game is no longer supported or must make room for newer titles on their server burn it myself? that also costs money so essentially you pay more for digital content. everyone who ever bought dlc =moron(including myself 2 years ago lol) or preorder Battlefield 3 before its even released(digitally) EA gets money while you still have shyt

Actually I'm glad they did it, even though they prove that their actual policy is deriving from costumer not offering or adding up.
Now gamesharing section can be retired once and for all and gamesharing will be history and our mods can have a rest from the gamesharing retardation latelly overtaken the forum.
Gamesharing-whores, I'm sorry but game is over, now you can leave the forum if you are not interested in what it's actually made for; hacks.

Be happy...with the current TOS, they could just as easily reduce your current games to 1 share, or no shares, or just block use all together...and I am sure they will get to that soon enough.

On the subject of buy back, if MS had jumped in and offered PS3 owners a swap option to the XBOX 360 , I would have been first in line.
