Classic LittleBigPlanet servers are to be shut down permanently following hacks.
Sony’s drastic move comes after months of downtime for the older games.
It was fun while it lasted. And some of the user created stuff was a blast to play with.
Have to say I expected them to be permanently shut down problem would be in the underlying server architecture and possibly something like a depricated authentication protocol which has to be replaced that the PS3, PSP and vita can't support which is why they can't be securely restored on those consoles but the PS4 does support it.so lbp3 was restored on that.
Given the attackers were able to breach the server there was obviously a fear of lateral movement once inside their servers so I can't blame them for this and it makes sense despite the huge blow to the community millions of hours spent building that community.
Despite this blow I believe the millions of creations are going to be available via lbp3 and it's capability of backwards compatibility with user generated content so that's something to be thankful for still not a huge consolation to the many players who only own a older console but unfortunately that's the world we live in these games are old the older they get the more insecure the servers get which the company that make them.host them on and the more likely they need to be shut down.
Understandable they had to do this better to be safe then sorry. I just wish those right wing racists that hacked the servers and started posting homophobic slurs would get want they deserve a good few decades in prison.
This has to be one of the biggest and best updates from Sony and the PlayStation crew.
Odin sphere 4.99 O_o....t(^_^)t yeah
Dungeon Hunter Alliance for the Vita, is that a typo on the price?
Ugh, Sony is going to make the same mistake with the Vita as PSP Minis. Why is Burn the Rope 4 dollars?! It's FREE on phones, and thats the only reason I have it. At most it will be 99 cents...
Sony needs to make it so things can be free or cheap on PS Suit if they want it to compete. I'm not paying a premium for crap games just to play it on my Vita....
Looks like im going to buy lbp vita. I got 10$ back from the spend 60$ on the ps store last month, so 7.49$ is a steal for a game like that.
