Playstation 3 game saves

To:  Sony

Dear Sony Entertainment:

I would just like to make it clear that you don't read our suggestions or comments. You obviously don't care about your consumers very much. The PSP was a major hit and still is because of everyone's ability to modify and have fun with it. The PC is still the biggest gaming platform in the world and not because everyone needs computers, but because people can modify PC games better than any other console. The Playstation 3 is by far the best gaming platform out there. Espically with its free online play and the ability to use the internet. Simple things such as sharing games saves is actually a really big thing for most. Like all I loved those really long games that take forever to beat, and then in the end you get something out of it that makes you want to play again. Some people just don't have that time anymore and would like to just skip to the good parts. For example, Resident Evil 5 has some awesome unlockables, but the game takes forever. I would like to play it with all of the unlockables before I get bored of it. I don't know about everyone but I don't understand the purpose of trophies. It appears that "you" don't really have that much of a say in the matter. In that it's all on the developer of the game. Well you, being Sony, can probably demand certain things seeing as how if you took your buisness away from a game developer they'd lose some major buisness. This petition is to see how many people understand what I'm getting at.

Making the PS3 unhackable has made you lose some major points. Now, instead of people enjoying the game and then seeing how much more fun other gamers have made it. We all have to watch at how awesome the game could have been if we would have purchased it for another platform. These truths would hold no water if I didn't state examples. Fallout 3, easily one of the greatest RPG platform games out there despite some of the freezing and glitches. Like most PS3 games nowadays, there are no cheat codes. Which I fully understand, but we can't even share game saves. To make matters extremely worse, we have to watch all of the other modifications online because we can't use them. This is a small video on youtube that explains a little of what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chgAICqSxxI.

Now I fully understand that we may never be able to use mods such as that on the PS3 but I do not understand why we can't do something as small as share game saves. As I have said, the excuse I have heard is because of the trophies. Locking the trophies and allowing game saves is an option. A widly disputed option. My opinion is that you just simply stop and think about the consumer. I don't care if you never change a thing, just LISTEN TO US!!! We're never gonna stop buying, playing, and because of your ignorance, COMPLAINING!!! I can't download games and burn them, I'm paranoid. I'm a person who believes, "If it's going to happen to someone, why not me? Why not me? But more importantly, why not me?" The worst possible thing that could happen may not happen, but who's to say it wont when no one knows.

In conclusion and to restate my topic a little late:
We don't care if you never change a damn thing, just let us know you're listening. Better yet, we know you're not listing, so just lie to us and tell us you are. Cause then you will be. I wouldn't doubt if this got no response and personally I would give a damn.

It's going to say "Sincerely, The Undersigned" and I can't stop it. But I'm going to add my own, no, our own.

Sincerely, The Unheard

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
