Hey guys, as you all probably know Sony has changed the way people can login with their account on the PS4. For every PSN account you now have 1 Primary console(like the PS3, everyone can play games with it), and 1 roaming console(play on every PS4 but only you can login and play your games).
This begs the question, is gamesharing finally dead?
I don't think it is although gamesharing is heavily limited on next gen. 2 resell/2phantoms will now become what I believe 1 resell/1phantom. So for a 60 bucks game 2 resells contributing 20/20 and 2 phantoms 10/10 dollar will now be split to 40/20. It remains to be seen if gamesharing with this split will remain attractive in this community.
So how would this work? The same as always, the phantom logs into the account, downloads the games and the account is deactivated through the website in which the resell makes the account primary on his own console.
