They probably will shut down servers soonish. But it will be a case by case basis depending on the game.
No point keeping servers running when there isn't any official support.
Modders can always help setup custom servers if the fanbase really wants it anyway.
I wouldn't be too concerned about it, unless you're completely against modding PS3/Vita.
Well, maybe there's reason for concern if they shutdown servers and then announced "remastered" versions on PS5 with new servers :rolleyes:
They don't always make money from PS3 online because people use servers for free.
I don't know about Vita but that has been dead here for years already, stores haven't stocked those games for ages now. PS3 store stocks only stopped in the last 12 months or so (EB was the last with preowned iirc but they removed vita before that).
For me it's possibly a good thing. Decent chance I could see the odd vita at work and should be way more PS3 consoles coming through :)
:Yoshi:
Anyway, I should go to bed.
Got a fair bit of stuff to do tomorrow including hunting around for a large ext hdd for all this shit I'm dl'ing atm. Hopefully should find something locally (like 8TB) for much cheaper than ebay.
Temporarily using a bunch of smaller drives right now and I don't like it :wacko:
:bed:
Fuck, I need to hack my Vita and download the fuck out of everything.
I just got a 8TB myself, and I transferred over the contents of FIVE of my 2TB drives. And there's still open space, and I can fucking sort this shit now that everything's on the same drive. PS3 games are what made a mess of my previously tidy sorting methods, I was just pushing backups of them wherever.
Hi there I'm new to this forum and this is my time posting! :D I have a quick off topic question here, apologies if this isn't the right place for it. Do you think if I post that gif of Hitler rocking back and forth tweaked out of his mind during the Olympics I will get banned? I really don't want this account and there doesn't seem to be a way to delete it other than getting banned.
Thanks you in advance fellow forum members! OPRC <3!
Spoiler warning:
Last time I bought 8TB external it was for my XB1S, it still has some room but it's well over 50% full now.
Anyway, looked around and 8TB or larger drives weren't cheap enough imo, so I bought 2x 4TB seagate drives for less than the cost of a single 8TB :lol
For vita and ps3 I think the server links will still work for a bit after the stores close, you just won't be able to purchase. But yeah, the next 6 months is probably the time to get organised and start downloading all the stuff you really want.
Need to hack both my vita's :wacko:
Yay! My first T6 ship in STO!!!
Taking things down almost 3 times as fast as I did with my old T5-U.
I am currently playing D&D : Temple of Elemental Evil. The game uses the D&D 3.5 ruleset and basically does so to the T. Even the rules that you would fudge in a real tabletop D&D campaign are in there.
A lot of rules should have been removed or modified in a single-player campaign, but Troika left it all in. The few changes that were made, such as lowering the level cap to 10 from 20 are bizarre choices too.
All in all, the game isn't very fun because of the brutal difficulty and broken mechanics, but I grew up with it. I feel obligated to play through it since I never could as a child.
A few of the rules that are bogus include: NPC's take a share of the loot but never sell anything. So they become permanently encumbered immediately. You may determine their equipment, but you can't take anything out of their inventory unless you gave it to them originally.
All of the "flavor" skills and feats were left in. So you never know if you'll need one or if it was just put into the original rules for dialog that you may have with other people playing. Pickpocketing would seem useful, but this isn't an open world game like Skyrim, so I can't just go pickpocketing anyone...
I have more complaints but it's tough to verbalize.
I feel that way about Baldurs Gate 1&2, in regards to...well not growing up with them exactly, but when they were released anyways. Tried getting into both Pillars of Eternity but just can't quite get into "newer" types of these games.
I've played so few of them to form an opinion, but I like "the idea" of these games. :wacko:
It's a shame it doesn't have MP or I'd offer to play with you.
No, but I have read about it. Seems like it makes the game significantly more tolerable.
I might try it out when I get closer to lvl 10.
That would be cool, but the game is turn based and progresses nothing like Diablo (for example). I find myself comparing it to Diablo a lot for whatever reason. While Diablo is really satisfying when you plow through enemy hordes, this one offers nothing like that. Every encounter is laborious, unforgiving and unsatisfying.
Heyyyy Friday already. Falcon and Winter Soldier night :D
I keep wanting to call it Falcon and the Snowman :P
Civ 6 is having another freeplay weekend. I'm still impressed how well they mapped this game to a controller. Plus it doesn't take 10 minutes to load like it does on my old pos PC :lol
Still, I wonder how much it will bog down late game with tons of shit going on which I never did last time.
Anyone think it might be time to change 10+ years of awesome sauce to 20+????
:revwacko:
:rolleyes: After occasionally looking at used PS TV consoles for like $200au or more (depends if they're console only or complete boxed etc, it's easy to see prices $400aud or more tbh), I finally caved and purchased one locally (not far from where I live actually) for around $100aud. Comes with DS3 controller but isn't boxed.
I have one of each retail Vita variant now. Fat oled, slim and PS TV.
Only the slim is CiB.
my nipples are erect
Edit:
:pirate:
So many PS4 games being backported to old FW lol
Having a great day. First, the vacuum burned out and then I dropped a two year old sapling moving it into the sun. It snapped in two.
Its super windy where I live right now.
