"So, used games can play on PS4. How is that?"

Ostinatto · Feb 21, 2013

thank you based Kaz

Takao · Feb 21, 2013

I am not shocked.

-GOUKI- · Feb 21, 2013

Your avatar. I don't like you.

CLEEK · Feb 21, 2013

Xbox = Deadbox

Zombie James · Feb 21, 2013

Bullet dodged.

ZanzibarBreeze · Feb 21, 2013

Done deal.

LiK · Feb 21, 2013

Sony wins

TimeEffect · Feb 21, 2013

Ball is in MS's court now

fvng · Feb 21, 2013

That settles my choice

Deleted member 17706 · Feb 21, 2013

Yay! Hope this doesn't change before launch.

Also hope it's region free and not locked to a single PSN account.

tapedeck · Feb 21, 2013

Thank God

pcostabel · Feb 21, 2013

This means Durango won't block used games either. It would be stupid for publishers to be ok with used games for one platform but not for the other.

Dead Prince · Feb 21, 2013

did they ask if ps4 is regionfree. we just need confirmation ;P

radrelic · Feb 21, 2013

Sony always wins baby.

Uno Venova · Feb 21, 2013

Good, good. Just keeping online passes then I guess.

Empty · Feb 21, 2013

fuck yes

AppleMIX · Feb 21, 2013

Good news, glad to see Sony is not doing it. Hopefully Microsoft will follow suite.

FluxWaveZ · Feb 21, 2013

Great! Now if Microsoft follows suit it'll all be good.

Noirulus · Feb 21, 2013

It would be commercial suicide to block used games anyway.

Reiko · Feb 21, 2013

Durango is done now if the rumors are true.

So if someone buys a PlayStation 4 game, I asked, you're not going to stop them reselling it?

"Aaaah," was Yoshida's initial answer, but seemingly only because he'd forgotten his line. "So what was our official answer to our internal question?" he asked his Japanese PR advisor. The advisor stepped in but didn't seem to answer clearly, at least to my ears. Yoshida then took control again firmly:

"So, used games can play on PS4. How is that?"

Seems like he just said "fuck it, I'll tell em". Go yosp.

SolidSnakex · Feb 21, 2013

Well, that was easy enough wasn't it? I really don't think MS will do this either. It's way too dangerous.

rdrr gnr · Feb 21, 2013

BASED KAZ

Paging corporate ballwashers.

-Pyromaniac- · Feb 21, 2013

Never thought otherwise but good to get confirmation.

Frolow · Feb 21, 2013

Thank god.

wow

as for this news I am super happy that rentals will be possible on ps4

Eusis · Feb 21, 2013

Yeah, I'll get a PS4 eventually then. Unless it still does always online anyway.

The_Hitcher89 · Feb 21, 2013

Best news of the day imo. And I don't even buy used games much.

If MS go through with it, it'll be interesting to say the least

Assuming there's been no mistranslation, misrepresentation or misunderstanding here

Deadly Joker · Feb 21, 2013

Day Fucking One.

Unknown One · Feb 21, 2013

Eurogamer now settle the online issue now please

Gorillaz · Feb 21, 2013

Sounds like something that should have been said during the conference but yeaaaaaa

IHaveCandy · Feb 21, 2013

If Microsoft blocks used games, which I still doubt, GameStop is going to become an unofficial Sony Store.

It would certainly seem so. Unless Microsoft is really fucking dumb.

this is now the inferior version of that gif

we need the klazzic one

also great news, Sony knows alienating customers before launch is a bad idea

Tricky I Shadow · Feb 21, 2013

FStop7 · Feb 21, 2013

So if PS4 allows used games

And Durango blocks used games

Isn't that a disincentive for devs to make PS4 games?

Soi-Fong · Feb 21, 2013

Good to see.

MS.. Your move..

Vandiger · Feb 21, 2013

Thank you Sony God.

dragonflys545 · Feb 21, 2013

NICE!

RoboGeorgeForeman · Feb 21, 2013

That's good, I never really expected it to, but it's reassuring to hear it straight from the horses mouth. I just hope my favorite game devs don't support that online pass bullshit.

If you mean always online, I don't think that was ever a rumor for PS4.

Donthizz# · Feb 21, 2013

"KAZ is GOD" Confirmed!

Knux-Future · Feb 21, 2013

Have my kids, Sony.

TDLink · Feb 21, 2013

Good. So Microsoft loses then.

injurai · Feb 21, 2013

moneyhatters vilified

RoboPlato · Feb 21, 2013

Excellent. Now just confirm online play and Netflix aren't behind a paywall and we're good to go.
