Playstation Portable owners will not be able to transfer the disc-based UMD games they own to a PSPgo when the sleek new digital-only system launches next week, Sony officials told Kotaku today.
Growth driven by digital software and console hardware sales.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
These new paid games, game trials and “buy once, play anywhere” pricing are coming to Play.
at least they are still working on it.
I like the Koisk idea. Bring your PSP UMD games into the kiosk trade them into digital titles.
who cares really. If the new games coming out are downloadable, who cares? People are complaining because they have umds? Sell them or keep you old psp. Sony is still supporting umds and psp go is not an "upgrade".
This among other things is why I'm not sold on the PSP Go! yet, I'll upgrade my PSP 1000 but probably to a 3000 or 4000, I'd still be able to experience a majority of the Go! functionality so it won't be a total loss.
Id love to have the PSP Go so i dont have to lug around my UMD discs and switch them out if I want to game on the go. But until they give me a concrete way to play the games ive already bought on it I wont be buying one. I dont think I should have to rebuy the games I already have unless they are really discounted compared to what I bought them for.
I don't think Sony really thought it out too well. They're really trying to sell the Go to consumers who don't already have a PSP. But don't really anticipate current PSP owners to "upgrade"
