he always does that. He makes a thread, he gets owned, he abandons threads, then he gets mad and goes to flame everyone in other threads. Its a daily thing for him.

IC, he forgot his pants here though.

This is only the begining for the bad news for Sony and their fans. Today, millions of people got their consoles bricked. How many firmware have caused issues for the PS3. I've lost count. Sony fans are gonna have it bad next gen. And now they will also have to pay for it. Adding salt to injury here.

my country is not affected but regardless, i was gonna make a US account specifically because of the store it has. Saudi's is weak sauce compared to it. 

I mean if you go to any video game store in this country and ask for PSN one of the questions the clerk asks is "Saudi or US card?"

I'm waiting on them to release a fixed version and hopefully I can recover via memory stick. Otherwise I'll be looking into repair or replacement. It's a pain in the ass and another expense when I don't need it, but even if I can't recover it's had a good run.

Those are just the EU countries affected, so there are others. Says so right in the article.

timbers_WSU

They can still play the PS4 though. They just dont have PSN there, yet. But the system does not require an internet connection.


Essentially this news is saying the same thing as the ps3 and vita since you can play those anywhere in the world, just some countries cant access PSN.

Unlike xbox one if you dont have XBL in your country you cant play it all because of the need to connect to it every 24 hours.

Even if the PS4 doesnt launch in a country they can still import one because they are region free and can play a game from anywhere in the world. You can import an xbox one also and play it, but only for 24 hours.

Blocking is the wrong word. PS4 is region free, you can still make a PSN account in another region and play online...

not true. We can play online on PS3. We won't be able to play on PS4 because it requires PS+, and PS+ requires a store.

timbers_WSU

ofcourse it will be block since u need ps plus top play online but single player game will still be playable. also u can create account for different countries.

i hav a american,english, irish,united aradbian imarate and japanese accounts on my ps3 and all work and i can downloade all the exclusives that are available to different region by buying redeem psn money card. same will be with the ps4.

but this could cause a little problem if sony decided to take the psvita route and decide to lock the system into 1 account unless u fully format the system to change accounts. which i doubt it will happen. the only thing sony region locks is the DLC.

whereas in xbox one case they confirmed that people with not supported region will probably wont be able to create an account from another country and use it, u will get a messege that this is not supported in ur region. xbox 360 was more open in which i hav account of different region and my pal 360 play 90% of all game of different region and all XBLA games and all DLC of all different region. 360 was more open regionaly than the ps3 tho ms did not promote that (idiots). but in X1 case they r saying this wont happen and ur country must get supported.

Not really. You buy an Xbox One is one of those 21 countries, Update it Online. Then move to any of those other continents and play the games!
