As you may or may not know, Playstation Plus arrived in Brazil a few days ago. And it appears Sony have been really nice to its Brazilian users, “selling” the PS+ 1 year membership for free.
The "offer" was not mentioned anywhere officially, and people were able to stack it. It was technically possible to get dozens of years of PS+ membership for free by getting the offer several times in a row.
The article describes the full process used by people to get free lifetime PS+ membership (valid on the Vita, PS3, and PS4), although the vulnerability is now closed
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
Sony has patented to add multiple dialogue modes to let players switch between how many conversations with NPCs they want in the game.
Sony is like the only ones outta the 3 that has atuff like like this pop up changing thing in ways.
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.
Can we get a free 1year of ps plus?
Hmmm you could make the assumption someone got fired that night. lmao
Unless Sony can easily remove the extra memberships,(I'm Sure they can)then you have to bet they are steaming hot at the amount of money they have lost from this incident. Funny tho.
That just makes you look poor... You should pay for it... No offence
that's pretty cool. I wonder if my guilt would eat away at me if I did that, lol. I would be good for about 5 years or so.
I should have used it immediately after seeing the trick. But no: "finally PS Plus on my country, let's support it". Fool.
Two days later: credit cards not being accepted* and there are no PSN cards. Sony BR really sucks. The whole positive image Sony/Playstation built worldwide is falling apart in Brazil.
* Sony BR shows the price in R$, but charges in $, lots of banks are not accepting it anymore. Either is brazilian R$ or plain and simple USD, not "something in between" (see don't even make sense)
