this is a good time for us to lead right
into our scumbags the scum bag bag bag
seller seller sell of the week week week
a lot more delay and reverb out in that
one so now with with silent hill's
cancelled Konami is keen to wipe any
evidence that this game ever existed off
the map which is [ __ ] up from a video
game preservation point of view on which
we say that last time on the podcast
about what happens to these games on
rice times they're gone so of course
just like when a flappy bird got taken
off of the App Store you had people
selling iPhones with flappy bird on it
and trying to get all this money for it
was a luxury item yeah now you have ps4s
that people are trying to self like a
thousand or twelve hundred dollars that
have the PT demo on it this is scummy
for Oh a huge number of reasons one PT
never costs anything to download in the
first place that's three times three
times the amount of a normal PS for sure
but the thing that people need to
realize and I'm sure a lot of people do
is that if you get someone else's
PlayStation 4 with PT on it as soon as
you want to use that PlayStation 4 for
anything that is yours yours personally
you have remotely yours personally angel
we're gonna have to [ __ ] wipe the
system anyways and you're not gonna have
access once you log in as another person
that give the login which they give you
the login and that's that's a lot of
trust I have another issue this was
downloaded millions of times yes so I
mean how does it make any sense that
you're gonna be paying a premium on
something that any other person has on
their place I should go over your
friend's house employee well I just want
to comment on that real quick I think
what they're doing is is they're they're
jumping the gun by trying to sell now I
think where they're trying to hope to
make this quote-unquote money is look
we're not that far into this generation
plenty of people who want to own ps4s
don't own them yet it's the people I
think who won't get a chance to get a
download PT that they're banking on
being stupid enough to buy one of these
I was going to say this I'm a there's
been a there's about 10 or 20 for sale
there's been about seven or eight that
have sold between 650 and 1,500
I'm calling Bravo Sierra nose I think
those are plants to get the pump up the
price and see that to show the people
that there's a value there from the
sellers because one person tried selling
one and it was it was bought with a zero
feedback someone yeah I'm fine
mite buying it you're not some 1,200
that's on a thousand dollar ps4 with
zero feedback in p2 yeah exactly
so a one sold for twelve twelve hundred
within ninety nine cents with 1515
installed games in five demos so maybe
they figured that fifteen install games
is worth that much not just the PT but
calling it rare it's not rare it's not
rare especially if Konami wanted to they
can say [ __ ] it well put it back on line
of charge at five bucks or I mean like
it's on a literally a million console
that's not rare Konami won't though I
mean but no I'm just saying it's scummy
all the way around it's coming the way
around but they call it rare it's not
rare it's digital it's not rare nothing
at digital is rare yeah you know it can
be easily distribute it's not physical
at some point someone will crack the ps4
and PT can be on everyone's PS yeah
they'll figure out a way to transfer ten
years I mean it will hopefully come back
but I mean to me I would never want to
sell my ps4 for that amount with PT on
it because it does feel nice to know you
have something to know that you're
preserving something that another
company does not want you to have that's
kind of that's kind of cool you know
warning wise this is one of the first
things that has been wiped from a
marketplace and you cannot redownload it
if you delete it it is completely gone
that's how badly Konami doesn't want
people to remember PT or silent hill's
so that said yes in the future it will
probably be preservable if you have a
copy it's pretty small and I'd really
recommend you just keep it on your
system and not that I think anyone
listening who has it would delete it at
this point but certainly don't
yeah you said there's gonna be a way
whether it's five years from now to
transfer to another system as a
harddrive hell @hell a ps4 emulator
there's not other real impossibilities
down the line you know stuff like yeah I
mean even if we're talking ten years in
the future this will find its way back
to P Konami we'll put it on a disk on a
collection you know who knows it's
still around they're not just making
like he said like horror dating Sims I
said of putting out franchises people
actually want and not just you know one
other three you know whatever it's just
it's just scummy we haven't done this
gonna make sold week in a while but it's
just yeah you're right it's a flappy
bird thing again it's just oh it's a
game that'll be available again anyway
because it's gone people are preying on
the on people's instinctive gut
reactions oh my god the thing that I
liked is gone I don't have it should I
need it but I still don't think they're
actually selling but I still don't think
they're selling but if they liked it why
wouldn't they have had and plus I got a
heads up figure out that was gonna go
bye-bye they had like at least a week
thing downloaded still like I said we're
not that far into this current
generation I think what they're hoping
to eventually prey on are people who are
just getting ps4s who couldn't who
couldn't get PT
