LITTLEBIGPLANET IS COMING NATIVELY TO PC 🚨
We just got an early look at a native PC port of the original LittleBigPlanet from the PS3. No emulator, no RPCS3.
LBP has always been one of the hardest PS3 games to emulate because it leans so heavily on the Cell processor. Now its PS3 code is being recompiled straight into native PC code.
A year ago people said PS3 recomps were years away. The decomp scene is moving insanely fast.
A U.S. congressman wants to change how we legally “own” video games.
Rep. Ritchie Torres has announced plans to introduce the Power To The Players Act, a bill that would direct the FTC to create rules protecting consumers who buy video games.
The proposal would give players three basic rights:
>The right to own the games they purchase, rather than simply receiving a revocable license
>The right to keep playing games after online servers are shut down, through an offline mode
>The right to transfer or resell games they own
Torres argues that if a company can take a game away simply by shutting down its servers, then the consumer didn’t really buy the game in the first place.
Torres also hopes the legislation could eventually establish a precedent for ownership rights across other parts of the digital economy:
“If you pay for it, you own it.”
