Sounds of the Show possibly dead on Next-Gen

[bcruise]

Today Sony confirmed that the PS4 will not read Audio CD's or play .MP3 files:

Will I be able to play MP3s on PS4? No.

The system can still play music, but it appears to be limited to Sony's Music Unlimited (a subscription-based service).

Unfortunately, it doesn't take much of a logic leap to figure out what this means for custom music imported into games, such as The Show and NBA 2k14.


Thoughts?

Wanted it to be about the games and we got it no issues here see you on the 15th

posted in the PS4 thread hoping Russell could chime in, hopefully its something that can be patched in later if people make enough noise (although the wording is very concerning)... Weren't there a bunch of missing features when the PS3 launched?

Bad news. What's next? A new hitting timing window? Oh they already did that?

There's quite a backlash already. The internet is in a frenzy.

I can almost guarantee that if the hardware will support it, it will get patched or added to the next batch of PS4 consoles.

Microsoft's DRM reversal is excellent evidence that reasonable outcry can cause change.

Yosp tweeted that he'll look into it

Fixed.

oh...and although I rarely use this....it doesn't make much sense on why neither console maker would think that this wouldn't be a big deal to a lot of people.
(and I know The Show devs are not happy as they specifically added SoTS for us and like the feature a lot)
