Disney has apparently ruled out online distribution of its upcoming Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep on “copyright grounds,” a decision which certainly comes as a blow to Sony’s ill-received PSP Go…
A visitor to a recent PlayStation promotional event claims to have been told there would be no PSN download distribution:
“I asked an official and was told there would be no download version.
The reason was said to be because Disney is strict towards net distribution on copyright grounds.”
So much for the PSP Go…
Just why Disney would object to legal online distribution of its games on copyright grounds is not clear.
The game itself is due for release in January.
If only they knew what the future had in store for them
Disney just lend their licenses to let SE make the game, not sure why they would have any say about how the game is distributed. Would be more credible coming from SE themselves.
The distribution of all things Disney runs under Buena Vista Distribution, including this game.
I’m calling bull s♥♥t.
i wanrt so much…
’cause we all know piracy only happens when digital versions of games are released…?
