TimeLordCrow13y Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) The better thing to petition for (IMO) is for Sony to implement a policy requiring all predominantly single-player games for PS4/PS5 to be patched when online servers go down so that the trophies can be achieved (with similar requirements) in single-player. I doubt it’d ever go anywhere, but it’s something they theoretically could do if there was enough demand. Sony & the devs aren’t going to and likely even can’t in most cases, patch PS3/Vita games anymore. Not even first-party ones.

VenlafaxineHead Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Nostalgia is a real b*tch. I get it. I long for the days of "Warhawk"...but it's the Warhawk from my memory. Usually going backwards turns out fruitless and tarnishes the memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charxsetsuna Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I'm so sorry, but this petition isn't going to do anything. Only hope is if some fans maintain their own servers and they get approved here for trophy hunting use. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could care less about the trophies in MAG since I got them all already, but I would love to play my favorite game all time again after 8+ long years. Some PS3 games with shutdown servers though like Motorstorm, Killzone 2, SOCOM Confrontation, and Warhawk are able to be played online using PSONE.

Popular Post You Posted June 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Erm, so addressing the elephant in the room, but the games listed are actually not even anything to do with Sony. Sony's servers are still up for games that use Sony's own net code. You can blame each individual developer that decided to use, and then shutdown their specially created and dedicated servers. So amusingly the petition is being aimed at the wrong company. Remember when Borderlands 1 for PS3 was down for years and then the servers brought back by Gearbox, and I think to this day they are still up? Well Gearbox did that, not Sony. Gearbox were releasing more Borderlands content (Borderlands 2 on PS4 I think) so they had an interest in resurrecting the old servers for overall franchise stability, and profit of course. Not because about 20 people signed a petition on the Internet. Presumably, the people signing the petition are only bothered about earning missable trophies and then never playing those games again, and not because of any love for game preservation...

Also, the Plat was still obtainable in that time, because someone figured out how to get Xlink Kai to work with the game and fool it into thinking the servers were still up so you could get the sole online trophy done .

rebelkiller93 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I've seen countless petitions like this over the years and they have never gotten anywhere. The simple facts are that the seventh generation of consoles is coming up on being 20 years old - the PS3 is now older than the SNES was when the PS3 launched. The vast majority of players have moved on to at least the eighth generation, if not the ninth. Companies are in the business of making money and they won't spend it keeping servers alive for games with ghost town multiplayers and they're essentially making little to nothing on games being sold on the PS3 store. Sony have stopped allowing new patches to be released for PS3 games long ago. Their main concern with the PS3 now is trying to make sure it doesn't become a security headache. Most of the aforementioned petitions are motivated by players looking to earn trophies and to that end, my advice to anyone looking to start or clean up PS3 trophies in 2022 is to focus on single player and cut your losses when it comes to multiplayer. In reality, we've had a long time to get those done and for most games, it's passed us by. I know some might argue they didn't get into the PS3 until recently but they can't keep servers up forever for late adopters, as there will always be people buying consoles long after they've stopped being produced. Unfortunately, it's just the way of things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also many (if not all) ditched that model later and changed online pass free if I remember it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
