It’s been just a rumor since official confirmation: the PlayStation Store will be nothing more than an old story on PSP, PS Vita, and PS3. The curtains are already down, condemning titles that can no longer be patched.

The preservation was fine for 2 minutes. Sony would have decided to remove the ability to update PS3 games without notice, for example to prevent them from benefiting from patches, having fun online or winning trophies.
As reported by users of the forum from ResetEra and a participatory theme by PSN profilesmore than thirty titles would be affected.
The list goes on
The right to download files may vary by area. Here are the titles listed so far:

Of course, the list should only get longer as other players will likely go testing the versions they own. This gives a good idea of what the lives of the owners of the console, released in 2006, will be like when access to the PlayStation Store is completely banned on July 2nd, as with the PSP. The closing of the PS Vita is planned for August 27th. For the latter, the end of business means the complete cancellation of certain projects, as we reported in this article. Sad reality.
Once again, Dmatrialis is good. But it would be necessary to think about it to avoid everything not disappearing with a snap of the finger. See if consumers and law firms are looking for legal means to force home builders to keep backup solutions.
