PSN game sharing to become more exclusive
Nov 6th 2011 3:10PM (Joystiq)Face we live today's families are heavily dependent on digital entertainment and with the PS3/PSN network friendly to a family with more than one gamer who likely has there own PS3 or cousins, best friend, the ability to share content you "OWN" on a system it is playable on is a selling point, Just as you buy a Blue Ray Disc and loan it to your mom, aunt or best friend.
What consumers need to do is put an end to this bait and switch SONY has a history of doing. First they gutted the feature of optional operating system, now the 5 downloads per account. Next logical step is total digital distribution..? all in the name in greed
I know many people saw a $9.99 title as like $2 a download, even if you had 2/3 machines it justified the purchase to 'Try it" but now at this new policy I only see $10.I know personally I will not be buying half the content I did before,
I always questioned why not just break it down to 1/5 the price and sell tons more cheaper. look at the iphone and other IOS, think of the millions of sold, $2-$5 is easily a child's allowance each week and a cash cow for them.

May 14th 2010 1:59AM (Joystiq)Then have some form of DLC say a monthly/bi-monthly release for a reasonable fee $6-$9.99 of new content, maps, modes etc at least change layout locations to keep variety. They could add more basic vehicles, buildings etc
Final Fight: Double Impact's PSN requirement is anti-sharing DRM
Apr 23rd 2010 12:34AM (Joystiq)When you consider the 5 download idea that makes it basically $2 for a $10 game, why not just sell games at that $2 for one copy, then if you system dies you rebuy it? I'd be happy paying that or say $1 for a $5 game, etc. not $10, $15 or $20 that might get corrupted or lost should my system die..
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 VIP Map Pack 3 almost ready for deployment [update]
Apr 23rd 2010 12:20AM (Joystiq)When the game shipped we should have been able to use "All the Maps" with "All the Modes" of play, then to keep people from getting to know a map like the back of their hand, ALL NEW maps would be added. Not to mention that other Call to Arms game, but at least they give totally new areas to play in usually. If I didn't have the VIP version I'd not buy them

Sep 19th 2009 6:17PM (Joystiq)If they are smart and add in other DLC then they are possibly gonna make alot of money.
Which considering game manufacturers receive NOTHING from used game sales will create a big reason for people to buy this $30 game and not a used copy with no DLC. With games coming out at $60 to re-release it in 2-3yrs later.. will decrease the amount of used games being sold and more profit than a bunch of $60games being left while people buy used..
