so once both of these consoles online services shut down, how the fuck am i suppose to download the inevitable patch that fixes everything thats wrong with the game if i buy a game for these systems?
Welcome to the new age
lol why wouldnt you just buy the new one? you would actually want to play old shit? lmao
Don't buy games that require patches to be playable.
by the time those consoles cant connect to the internet this wont be an issue

but literally all new games now require some sort of patch before you play them. i cant even remember the last game i bought that didnt require one

Every game has patches, not all of them are unplayable without patches.
>>319939004
Pretty much all games have patches now but a lot of the time it's just minute bug fixes that you wouldn't really notice.
>>319938096
it's okay we have endless re-releases anyway now
>>319938096
well as example,
I'm going to buy bayoneta for xbox not ps3 since ps3 without patch apearently is unplayable. thats a way around it, but ps3/360 are the last of the consoles, with games able to work just from disc...somewhat work, ps4 and onward its going to be horrible.

it jus werks..
>>319938096
this also makes me think about DLC, how the fuck are we gonna buy those if the game didnt come out with some sort of GOTY edition
Download the patch from online and install with a usb, you fucking idiot

>>319939409
i guess thats true, one thing i didnt realize is that modding systems are still thing. so theres that bypass
>>319939831
Isnt it an option to get a spare Hard drive, install all games you'l SOMEDAY in the future know youd want the dlc for/patching, and just safe that somewhere, maybe even 2, its retarded but shouldnt that be an option.
>>319939890
you cant do this with game updates at least not for ps3
>>319939890
>>319940294
myeah, a cool thing sony and microsoft could do is just host ALL fucking updates of ALL games on 1 shit server in a shit storage room somewhere.
But that wont ever happen...
Just sucks with ps3 and onward, pc's will allways be able to fix that shit and make it work SOMEHOW cause some crazy nerd has all the patches on a server of obsure game nr59
