Shuhei Yoshida announces DRM on PS Vita

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

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

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 :P Between Fake Kaz and Yoshida Sony has really likeable "public relations" :D
 
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.

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.

That was the first thing I had in my mind.
 
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...
 
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.
 
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.

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.
