Sorry, but in my opinion the "memory card thing" is complete fail

You paid for a completely different version of the product!! It still costs them money to have to stream the data to you for your downloaded game!

So you're right, it's not free, because it's not the same product you purchased.
No, because it's the same version. It doesn't cost them money to stream, lol..
You're acting like they're manually opening ports to specifically stream to me and only to me.

It's like you're telling me a Whopper is the exact same thing as a Big Mac. It's not. Theyre both burgers and have extremely similar qualities, but they're not the same thing.

And regardless, yes, it still costs them money to keep the PSN up and running and to transfer all of that data to everyone who's downloading it.

Except try to play that game on a ps3 system. Wont work unless you mod it. Mod it, you get banned.


Only if you play online because it goes against their online policies, unrelated to the legality of it.

Thats the point.

$7 for older games
$15 for newer

Take the new FF game that just got announced for the US psp release. Just wait to get it. Download and buy it from PSN when you have your vita. You pay retail and not a cent more.

For everyone else, you're sol, keep your psp.

OR

Download it, then sell it on ebay or gamestop.


Lulz, I thought we were talking about PS3/PSV iterations?
But I guess it follows the same subject, anyway.

Again though, I'm only playing devil's advocate here.

No, it's not. A Whopper is Battlefield while a Big Mac is Call of Duty. They're both shooters with similar qualities.

They need to keep PSN running in the first place. That's why I said that they're not manually streaming it exclusively to me.

Its not the same version. The psp games were built around the psp system. The vita is a different system all together. are the ps1/ps2 games the same as the ps3 games? no they are not. they are built by and for a different system.

Same as the vita. The vita games are cart based, the psp games are umd based. two. different. formats.

Just like a Digital and Physical copy of something are not.the.same.thing. I don't understand what you don't get about this.

Why is anybody replying to a guy named kirby anyway? Looking back a few pages he just basically dismissed any logic that comes his way just to save his petty argument. Troll is being promoted to Goblin status due to such failure.

But people are essentially paying twice for something they already bought. The versions are more or less a port of one another with identical files.

But they are..Like I said before, when I buy a modern Blu-ray, I get the Blu-ray copy, a DVD, and digital download. Which is pretty overkill.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that my name made such a great influence to whether people reply to me or not. Oh, that's right!
I'm on the PSV boards and I have a Nintendo game, therefore, I MUST be a Nintendo fanboy!

I didn't dismiss the logic, I replied an argument against it.

However, to kyomagi and SSBB. I'm just going to drop this argument right now. It's pretty pointless. It's a case of "I think this and you think that". Like I said, I don't even own a PSP and to be quite honest, don't see much reasoning as to why people care so much a game that they already played when they can keep their PSP. It was a horrible idea to play a devil's advocate.

I will stand by my statement however, that a book does not equal a movie iteration, that's a completely different product of the same franchise, which is actually what got me to reply as devil's advocate. The Big Mac/Whopper is also an oddworldly comparison and doesn't form a proper analogy.
