Why does Sony make it so hard to make "cheat" hardware for PS3?

May be...

I'm 51 years old but still like video games and have all the consoles including PS3.



But I mostly play with Game Cube or PS2 as I have either Game Shark or Action Replay to plug in some cheats.



If there was a good cheat hardware for PS3 I would buy more games and play with it. Right now it's being used only as a Blu Ray player.



Don't they realize they will sell more games if there was a cheat hardware?



I don't play online games.

I understand your point, there is nothing more frustrating than playing a game and getting so far but then the difficulty ramps up so high it is nearly impossible to go any further. This would be a good scenario for a cheat device, also if you beat a game and want to play it again with some cheats. I would love to see a Game Shark or Pro Action Replay for PS3.

cheats are only for losers who cannot finish a level with a clean game. There are actually some cheats on games like guitar hero 3 for PS3.. there are cheats to unlock all songs and other stuffs. I mean cheating isn't a bad idea. But where's the fun in that? How could you be proud of finishing a game by cheating? But like I said, it's only for losers. I'm sure you don't need trophies because you don't play online. But I'm telling you, online game is 90% of fun in PS3. Offline game is just 10% of the fun. You should go online and play COD4 or Killzone 2 with other guys.

Because they have trophies that are like achivements like on the xbox



NOTE: i own a PS3

see thats that key word CHEAT



no point in playing the game if you have to cheat so they made it where you can't period.

Nothing because they Ps3 can't be cracked yet because of blu-ray

maybe we'll see it in the future but nothing now that i know of
