    and btw, logistically it would have been a mess to opperate the program. And legally it wouldve been a headache to get permission from so many companies.

    How can it be such a mess or so hard if it's already been done in Japan?

    Did you see what a cluster the Japanese program was? There were tons of missing titles; many big publishers never signed on there. The pricing was all over the place. And they'd need all new contracts for every region. The company that published a game in Japan is frequently different from whoever published it in America who is different from who published it in Europe. Frankly, Sony probably looked at how small the number of people who even took advantage of the program in the PSP's most successful region and recognized trying to duplicate it anywhere else was just going to lose them money.

    Not a Big deal. All my PSP games are digital. The PSPgo was a good idea, but Sony should have 1. Made the games cheaper on PSN and 2. Force ALL companies to participate. I'M LOOKING AT YOU SQUARE-ENIX!!!!

    I don't get a free hand out when I bought a Burger King Whopper and I eat it and want another one.

    I do. I just do the survey and write that number thingy on my receipt, then walk back in. ._.

    EDIT spacehog beat me to it

    You're not beat, everyone wins with free whoppers.

    Honestly, I don't understand why? How hard/what's the issue with being able to seamlessly acquire the games you already own, WITHOUT having to pay a small price to do so? If you're already spending $300 on the best version, why not?
