Gage Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 See title. Not that I didn't really expect it to happen, but I didn't expect within a day. About an hour ago you could still search the game and it would show in results but then display an error page if you selected it, but now it's completely gone. If you already bought the game you can still play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I going to lose those .98 cts?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeSS14 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Anyone know the reasons this was removed so soon? How did it even manage to get as far as being put on the store and being removed almost straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry94_ Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Anyone know the reasons this was removed so soon? How did it even manage to get as far as being put on the store and being removed almost straight away. There was a thread at the top of /r/ps4 about it and Jim Sterling's video, probably.

How did it even manage to get as far as being put on the store and being removed almost straight away. Got too much attention because the idiot who made it way over reached with the "ez plat" thing. If they basically just said "it's a puzzle game with 4k images" they wouldn't have got nearly as much negative attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gage Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 Is the game getting a patch? Is that a reason to remove it from psnstore? No, unless the game were completely and utterly unplayable it wouldn't be removed from the store to be patched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSS14 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Ahhh, an elusive platinum for all those who purchased it then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tussell Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 So the negative feedback from users is what had this taken down from the store? That seems a little obnoxious... It's still a game no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gage Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 So the negative feedback from users is what had this taken down from the store? That seems a little obnoxious... It's still a game no? No, I assume it was pulled because it was basically a scam that the dev made to sell a shitty tile slide puzzle based off it being an easy plat. I think it would have been pulled within a week or two regardless, but this got a whole lot more negative attention due to how blatant it was so got pulled a lot faster than normal.

TheRealClayman Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 So the negative feedback from users is what had this taken down from the store? That seems a little obnoxious... It's still a game no? I agree, it still requires you to do something despite the simplicity. And by all accounts, Mayo is still on the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSS14 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 From what others are saying it got pulled as it was made to appeal to trophy hunters for a quick plat, and they boasted about that. No thought went into the game, just tried to make a quick buck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpg49ers Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Edit: Joke aside, developer replied my message and said it was pulled by Sony because they want him to change the game's name (probably the description too). https://forum.psnprofiles.com/topic/49930-up-on-psn-for-only-098/?page=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tussell Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I guess I'd have to see Sony's terms and agreements regarding content submission... That being said, I assume you can't just blindly submit a game without at least a concept being greenlit or some sort of previous oversight by Sony or some sort of community elected by Sony. ... I don't know... Still somewhat off-putting. It doesn't really affect me, and I did not have intentions of purchasing this anytime soon, so I guess I don't really care all that much - just odd. No thought went into the game, just tried to make a quick buck. Sounds like half the AAA titles launching these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverendSID Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 There was a thread at the top of /r/ps4 about it and Jim Sterling's video, probably. That was hilarious. I'm glad this game existed if for no other reason than it made that video exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Naruto Shippuden Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 It not on the store? Fuck I didn't buy it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they've got incredibly lax with what they are doing, seeing as last year they allowed a game on the store that had outright stolen assets in it (along with it being borderline unplayable), then this year allowed the same person to put another game on the store which while not made entirely of stolen assets this time still is near unplayable. But yeah they apparently only pulled it due to the name, so who knows at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotoninja Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Was going to get this to remove My Name is Mayo as fastest platinum from my list. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinp42 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 That's just an...odd decision. Like others have said, what makes this different from My Name is Mayo? I guess I can see how yeah the name could be changed. But PSN has tons of crazy name games. And it had to be approved to be put up in the first place. Seems kinda shady. But oh well. Bought it this morning and just got my plat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
