Sony removes titles off psn and fuck you for caring otherwise. Remember PT? I have a copy I had to proxy download to a ps4 just to have cause Sony /konami don’t care…
Sony has randomly pulled digital titles from paying customers, deleting purchased copies of films and tv shows from their own network. If you paid for it, it doesn’t matter Sony/Konami took it away.
Remember how Sony handled digital pc titles???
Even if you don’t care about discs Sony has proven it can’t handle a digital marketplace.
And Sony doesnt offer PSN in 121 countries on earth. So if you live in one of those, Sony doesnt want your money.
To put that 121 in perspective… There are 195 countries on the planet. So PSN is available in less than 38% of the countries on Earth.
