Shuhei Yoshida announces DRM on PS VITA through tweet

[Norrdicus]

Oh, oh that man, ya got me Shuhei, ya got me

 

[Ickorus]

Because that's gone over so well for Micros- Oh, I see, you got me there for a second.

Never heard of it before but they could make some seriously good jokes regarding the state of the industry right now with a name like that.

 

[Hemlock]

Is this going to be the final nail in the coffin for the Vita? News at 11!

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Let's see how many people don't read the OP and start proclaiming the death of the Vita.

*looks up*

Nevermind.

 

[Andy Shandy]

Oh ho, I see what you did there, Sony. Well played =D

But a word of warning, if you end up with some form of DRM on the PS4 now, this will come back to bite you. Hard.

But until such a time, well played, indeed.

Only if it's bad.

But hey, waiting to see if this is more than just bad joke potential.

 

[VanQ]

Sony are ripping on XBone aren't they? I like this a lot. I'll definitely be looking forward to DRM on Vita.

 

[Whitbane]

Hah, this is great. Almost got me there for a second.

Inb4 the PS4 has similar DRM.

 

[Genocidicles]

I saw something similar on that fake twitter account of Sony's CEO.

"We've seen your tweets asking us to make the PS4 without DRM, and as such I am pleased to announce that the PS4 will not be launching with a copy of Dr.Mario! Rest easy gamers!"

 

[Atmos Duality]

*golf clap*
I chuckled, I admit.
With a name like that, how can the game possibly be bad?

 

[Hazy992]

I was about to go off on one as I'd just bought a Vita...

Heh, that's actually pretty clever. Be nice if they'd confirm if there's any DRM for the PS4 though. I'm hoping these potshots mean they're not going to do it, so fingers crossed.

 

[Erttheking]

YOU SONS OF...oh...hehehehehe, I see what you did there. That's pretty clever. I hope this is proof that Sony knows what their customers want.

 

[ScrabbitRabbit]

I love how the logo looks a bit like the Illuminati eye symbol. Genius move.

 

[Robbie Boss]

That was awesome. Well played sir.

 

[Drop_D-Bombshell]

Motherfu- They got me there! I was seriously thinking they were stupid enough to go with DRM.

 

[Chimpzy_v1legacy]

First Notch's golden Psone and now this. Is Sony taking jabs at Microsoft at every turn or am I imagining things?

I don't think you're imagining it at all

Granted, it's the same Shuhei Yoshida (President of Sony's Worldwide Studios)

 

[OpticalJunction]

Hahaha nearly fooled me I like that guy.
