What a great thread.

10/10

Amazing XD

 

[VanWinkle]

Aren't indie games what people are playing on their $700 phones?

Haha, exactly, and on their $500++ PCs.

 

[etrain911]

I wonder if they'll announce it for PS4 @ E3 as well.

"Now lets look at DRM on PS4"

Honestly? That would be the best way to handle it if they weren't planning any kind of actual Digital Rights Management in the system. Everyone's hearts would stop, journalists would prepare to get furious and then BAM! Trolled.

 

[Chocobro]

Well played, totally fell for it.

 

[Hrothgar]

Part of me now hopes Sony will announce serious DRM despite all the joking. UsedGAF's meltdown would be one for the historybooks,

 

[reson8or]

If all execs were like @yosp, the world would be a better place.

God DAMN it, shahid.

Stop your smileys! There must be no smileys!

 

[Alec]

Scared the shit out of me.

 

[The Elite]

I hope this means everyone will be smiling at E3.

 

[fiyah]

Well trolled, sir. Well trolled.

 

[That1BlackGuy]

Funny shit, well played.

 

[Wazzy]

Oh thank god. I read the title and my heart stopped. I almost yelled "NO! NOT MY VITA"

 

[Aquamarine]

I wonder if they'll announce it for PS4 @ E3 as well.

"Now lets look at DRM on PS4"

Yoshida needs to tweet this:

"More details about DRM on PS4, coming at E3."

 

[maltrain]

If you "read" good the Yoshida's Twitter, I think this are GREAT NEWS for Sony fans.

This is CLEARLY a way of trolling and putting the DRM thing over the table.

I'm pretty sure Sony -at least Microsoft change its mind on E3 before them- will talk LOUD about this on its E3 conference.

 

[RustyNails]

shahid bhai I missed your introduction but welcome to neogafs!

 

[Anteo]

This is amazing! DRM/10

 

[PairOfFilthySocks]

Sneaky motherfucker.

They sure as hell better not do a heel-turn after giving players so much lip-service.

 

[sajj316]

Nice one! That yosp is a silly guy ...

 

[Neuromancer]

It's good to be cautious, but there is such a thing as subtext you know... Sony would not be joking about this otherwise.

One would certainly hope.

 

[Acquiescence]

This thread would be at page 2 right now without that misleading title.

 

[Skyzard]

^ yep haha

Awesome thread haha. Had me confused.

Twin stick shooter baby! Just what I wanted, looks interesting and will likely pick it up but I couldn't really tell shit from the video.

 

[CambriaRising]

This guy...

 

[mckmas8808]

My heart dropped a little.

 

[Pound_lb003]

Amazing. I dunno. I love that they're taking the piss. Gives me confidence they'll do the right thing.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Troll yosp is best yosp.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

I think fake Kaz rubbed off on you & @yosp too much.

..

 

[Danj]

Clearly I need to get a PS Vita now.

 

[B.O.O.M]

I KNEW it!

 

[Skyfireblaze]

Well upon reading the thread-title I was like "What the f... oh dear..." and now I'm lying on my desk and laughing in tears Between Fake Kaz and Yoshida Sony has really likeable "public relations"

 

[KenOD]

Elasmobranchii is such a great name for a sub-class\. I just have to support any title that uses it as promotion.

Oh and something about an acronym, I skipped past that.

 

[Finalow]

bravo.

 

[tusken77]

Kaz: "Well played, Shu."

 

[KAL2006]

I ain't gonna lie, I'm part of the problem. I think I only bought like 5 games this gen that are new from retail. I am a cheap bastard and I don't mind waiting a year or two and buying used, DRM and No Used game would fuck me up the ass.

 

[Ephemeris]

Lol x 10

good stuff

 

[GAMEPROFF]

If you "read" good the Yoshida's Twitter, I think this are GREAT NEWS for Sony fans.

I'm pretty sure Sony -at least Microsoft change its mind on E3 before them- will talk LOUD about this on its E3 conference.

That was the first thing I had in my mind.

 

[Alucrid]

Haven't bought a used game in a while, most of what I buy is new. I like to sell my games though.

 

[jWILL253]

Part of me hopes some of the FUD spreaders (we all know who they are) pop in this thread without reading the OP like "Ha! Told you guys they would do it!" That would be comedy...

 

[MeBecomingI]

Brilliant.

 

[dark_prinny]

10/10 GAF. 10/10 SONY.

I almost die!

 

[bigboss370]

Oh cool, this game is like geometry wars and Stardust HD. Awesome.


Do not play if you have epilepsy problems though lol.

 

[Ravage]

Lol gotta admit, I was fooled for a moment there

 

[Tan]

Very well done.

Spoiler

When this comes true for PS4 it's gonna be ugly.

 

[Mr. RHC]

Legendary troll, Kojima/10.

His replies to confused tweets is what makes this so priceless.

Well done, OP!

 

[sappyday]

Got me

 

[Brazil]

Vita physical games don't have DRM.

Those only count for the digital vesions of Vita games. I can let people borrow my physical copies, and I can import physical copies and both work as they should. Digital will always been different then physical.

Still if Sony is planning DRM for the PS4 at this point, joking about this is only going to piss people off further, and it will easily ensure I dont buy tue PS4. If its a lighthearted joke with good news intended, the bravo for the heart attacks.

It may be digital-only, but it's still DRM.

 

[C.T.]

Analyse this gif is awesome but you know what would be even better? The moment Tyrion Lannister puts the glass of whine to his mouth in S3E8 on the wedding. Eye and mouth movement are so funny. I don't know how to do gifs though.

 

[Oyashrio-Sama]

10/10 Masterfully played Yosp!

 

[Goldrusher]

It may be digital-only, but it's still DRM.

The fact you can't share the console with your wife or kids or whoever has nothing to do with games being digital.
Even with retail games they simply can't have their own saves, trophies, friends list. Unless you format the entire system, including the game card.

 

[Magnus]

Hahaha, masterful trolling. This is amazing.
