Lige nu, sådan som det er i dag, så er Sony ikke synderligt gode til at bevare deres PlayStation-arv, og tilbyder kun halvhjertede løsninger til at genopleve gamle PlayStation-klassikere. Det forventes at de råder bod på det med den nye PlayStation Plus-tjeneste, men noget tyder på at de vil prioritere det yderligere i fremtiden.
Som VGC pointerer har en ny ansat hos Sony, Garrett Fredley, skrevet via Twitter, at han skal være en del af et såkaldt "Game Preservation Team" hos Sony, og vi går ud fra at deres funktion primært er at sikre at spil ikke går tabt, og kan tilgås af spillerne:
"Today is my first day as a senior build engineer for PlayStation, working as one of their initial hires for the newly created Preservation team," skriver han.
"Game preservation was my first career passion. It was my first foray into the world of software engineering / dev ops, and into a world that so many are unaware of. I was just a novice back then, contributing any way I could regardless of my inexperience. Now, I'm back to it, no longer the novice I once was."
