  Level 64, thoughts on blocking used games and next gen rumors

  Well I've been on Level 64 since early last week and then decided to test how long it would take to gain percentages, so I maxed capped like like everyday since and gained only 2%...yep this is going to be painful.

  Since Sony is going to possibly announce the PS4 this Wednesday and I hear about 720 rumors I might as well talk about them.

  PS4 to have streaming for PS3 games

  Looks like PS4 will allow you to play PS3 games after all...through streaming. You need to be online at all times to play PS3 games on it. Might as well own a PS3 in that case for full control and avoid connection issues though it's more convenient to play them on PS4.

  PS4 might have a screen on controller

  There have been prototypes of the PS4 controller to have a screen on it. I wouldn't mind it as long as it's done well.

  PS4 to be 400 bucks

  I'm fine with that, though I don't buy consoles at launch, only later.

  PS4 to make you pay an online pass when buying used games

  Eh, as long as I can play the game used...

  720 to have 500GB hard drive, Blu Ray and Kinect

  I'm fine with the 1st 2 but they need to improve Kinect for games, Kinect is mainly a success in sales, not in high quality games though.

  720 to block used games

  Probably the most insane rumor of them all. I don't see it happening and if they go for it I would be shocked. There's so many things wrong with it, like:

  Can't find that rare game new since used copies don't exist

  Makes renting games impossible with not enough copies

  This will make it so games won't drop as fast, longer to wait to get that game you want for a reasonable price

  Allows devs to exploit their practices

  Killing the used game market

  Yeah I don't see this happening. Can't wait until Wednesday though!
