I disagree with "money" being their only motive in limiting the distribution of mods freely on there platform.

What mostly likely is the main issue is security for their platform. How does Sony/Microsoft single-handedly monitor mods? When a mod doesn't work as intended, how is it removed--with the original game files repairing itself in the process? How do you know when a mod is destroying your console with some malicious hidden software?

There are many more unknowns when talking about modding in general. The consoles simply aren't built to handle the consequences that come with the great power that is complete user-created content. So, it is better to just leave it be as it is... at least for this generation.

@liquidsoap89

To be fair, there is a reason they are purposely not doing it. At least it sure seems that way. I noticed awhile back they stopped doing it all of a sudden. Something had to have happened between PS.Blog and Joystiq.

I'm pretty sure they would, if they could. So I don't get upset with them about it.

@xiLeShadow

XD, why would someone want to play with someone as unenthusiastic as you?

@Hyams

Wow, it has been awhile since Ive seen your name around here......I've been noticing a lot of "OG 'Stiq" -ers around as of late.

@Chris DPSN AggieCEO XBLThe Aggi

No, he actually DID read the entire article. The article doesn't really specify what 1.60 did. The title should have read:

"PS Vita 1.60 adds Maps app, video recording and 1.61 adds performance improvements"

This way, it is clear that two updates were released--doing totally separate things.

@KungFuChaosNinja

Or how about he just isnt an RPG fan?

Jeez....

@Emophia

Even ignoring the racial derogatory term you just used (JAPS), you would still be seen as an idiot because this is a Korean game.

"That said, there are some curious artifacts that betray its Korean origins..."

People, seriously read BEFORE you type.

@Halwende

No, but Daigo Umehara's parrying of the EVO tournament in the final round is.

Even today, that scenario is still brought up. And more and more "EVO moments" are being made every year.

Do not underestimate any form of competition.
