ToxicRedBull_ Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Does anyone know when Sony is going to, or is allegedly going to, shut down their PSN servers for PS3? I know that a lot of people has said it will happen 2 years after the PS4 release, even though the PS4 has been out for a good 3 years now. Although I am getting a PS4 for Christmas, I kind of curious and worried at the same because I won't be getting rid of my PS3 (either not yet or ever) and I might try getting online trophies or just using online features...

I know that a lot of people has said it will happen 2 years after the PS4 release, Not to be mean but whoever says that is an idiot. I don't see them doing it within at least 5-6 years. I still think it will be longer than that. The ecosystem is way different. It is not like PS2 or even OG Xbox.

Popular Post nenugalimas Posted November 5, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2016 Ps3 still has a sizeable player base. Personally I don't see them taking it down any time soon. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeetWolf2 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 The servers for PSN are for all platforms, they are not exclusive to each one so the PS3 servers will not go offline unless Sony shuts down the whole of PSN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. I still enjoy a lot playing online on my PS3 and a lot of people do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-bake_1986 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 This isn't like console upgrades of old, the PS3 still holds up as a legitametly useful and fruitful console. Hopefully it will be several more years before any major change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis-nine-five Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) We had something like that already: PS3 will die soon or will live long? Edited November 5, 2016 by Dennis-nine-five Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
