This is a DISASTER for PlayStation...

If buying isn’t owning pirating isn’t illegal

Nice. Should have been backwards compatible all the way back to ps1.

Abandonment of retrocompatibilitty was planned obsolence

I would never connect them to the internet ever again

But PlayStation can remove content that you bought but this is where they draw the line 😭

If Sony considers one buying a game a rental, this isn't at all illegal by their very own rhetoric.

"all" of it isn't illegal. I can legally jailbreak a PS5 if I wanted. I can play PS2 and PS3 games on it (if I own them, and some I still do). Now, the PS5 library thing, yeah, that crosses a more modern line and isn't attacking retro preservation.

All this doesn’t happen if Sony got their shit together! They asked for this.

theyre gunna wait another like 6-8 months then brick every one of these.....

So, once I jailbreak it. I am no longer able to connect to the network in general? Or just PSN.

It's not illegal if buying isn't mean owning...

They went gung-ho to an all digital future, right? The players are giving them what they wanted, before 2028.

Sony should get comfortable not owning their hardware and licenses 💀

understand … this was long time coming this shit ain’t nothing new and yeah once u jB your PSN account is done can’t use it for nothing FYi to all you n00bies

All big corporations have been screwing us for decades now.

Ps2 disc's is awesome, what's the software and requirements?

Good they made enough money off us 🤣

Playstation sucks. I use Steam

No it isn't. Thousands of these videos but not a single one actually launching a game. Because 90% need to be online and they can't get past that. Show us a game being launched..

If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing

If it did this from the factory they'd never stay in stock.

Good to know that playstation's lack of reverse compatibility was entirely planned obsolescence, and not a hardware limitation.

On many levels, they about to loose millions and also got exposed for not releasing back cat games cos “they can’t”

@shadowsx123

Now sony can sell more ps5s !

I support pirates.. screw bad monopoly

Got to buy one now and jailbreak before they roll out an update

So i could get Def Jam Fights for ny on my ps5 but at what cost whats the catch…

Haha nicee

This is nuts.

And it's got Microsoft scrambling

It’s not really ironic. Sony knew they were cooked. It’s one of the real reasons they wanted to stop physical discs. The public is just now finding out what it was really about. If you believed they were just adjusting to the markets wants and convenience after seeing this, lol.

Don’t jail break your PS5 it’s a set up
