Glad Sony said they aren't blocking used games on the PS4. I don't have many used games, but that still would be a deal-breaker for me. I didn't think the rumors were true anyway. Not thrilled this won't have backwards compatibility like the PS3 though.

The same yawn I uttered at the PS3 launch applies here.

No BC at all is just insane. Not even PSN games. Who cares about unified accounts when you can't even take the games forward with you?

Ah sweet, no used game blocking. Color me interested.

I don't own a PS3, so I suppose it doesn't affect me, but that's still ridiculous. So if you downloaded a game like Journey to your PS3, you'd have to buy it again for PS$, or could you just redownload it for free because it would be the same account?

If it's anything like the Vita, it'll be the former for westerners, and the latter for Japanese.

If it's anything like the Vita, Sony might as well prepare for bankruptcy.

HEYOOOOO... I'll show myself out.
