Sorry for the language in the thread title, but I'm peeved. In fact, I'm downright vexed.

You see, my four-year-old son got this big-ass horror doll toy from a horror themed attraction last week, and he's been so obsessed with it that I thought it'd be a good idea to show him a video of P.T. Naturally, he was mesmerized by what he saw, and being the gamer father that I am I promised him that we'd buy it and play it on PS5 when we got back from Orlando. Well, now we're back and he's jonesing to play some P.T.

Well guess fucking what... it's just gone from PSN. Poof, nothing. See ya later.

Konami to potential users on PS platforms: "So long, fuckos!"

You go to this store page link and you're greeted with a "this shit ain't here" message.

Well that's just fuckin' lovely, isn't it? And there's no physical version of P.T for PS4, so that's out the goddamn window as well. I simply can't download this game in any form for a PlayStation platform and play it with my son. And other than one forum post from the Old Site I've seen zero mention of this anywhere. Konami's Twitter page has said nothing, and I've seen nothing of the sort on any gaming sites anywhere.

I just want to play P.T at 60fps on my PS5 with my son who loves creepy stuff! Why can't I do that? Now I'm sitting here watching the tears well up in my son's eyes (and my own), struggling to find the words to explain to my boy why his dad's a big ol' failure who can't even provide a night of Kojima-made horror action. This is some bullshit.

Wasn't this delisted like years and years ago after the Kojima/Konami falling out?
Not to say that it isn't bad that something like P.T. can be delisted and just disappear from the world (kinda similar to the Scott Pilgrim situation) but the reason you might not be finding anything is just because of how old the controversy is

I remember after it getting delisted there were a lot of people selling their PS4s for like... thousands on Ebay because it still had P.T. installed on it

That's bizarre. I wonder if it's a mistake that no one's noticed.

Great game, too. Deserves every sale it can get.

I appreciate the effort 100%, OP

Shitty part is... I have the game downloaded but Sony won't let me play the damn thing on PS5

Just play that mission in Watch Dogs Legion or almost any horror game of the last 5 years, they're close enough

Joke about the thread title aside, P.T. was a moment in time. The demo itself... is actually just some esoteric bullshit, elevated by the mystery around it, especially as people were streaming it and figuring it out.

There's communities dedicated to making their own attempts to recreate P.T. out there.

Y'know how emulators usually (or used to, at least) target a major mainline game as their baseline during development, as that is what will draw the most people towards it?
Genuinely curious if any of them will target PT as that baseline lol.

was the missed "snakes!" by design, or a gemuine miss?
