Rain (Suggestion)

[Niwashi]

There is no official word on discontinuing PS3. The closest we have is that they mentioned years ago that 4.0 was the earliest they would possibly consider doing so.

It was when they were still in the early planning stages of working on 3.0 and well before it released. And their actual statement amounted to simply stating that they could only discuss as far as 3.0 and couldn't yet make any promises about what would or wouldn't be supported thereafter because they didn't yet know. (It was really just a statement that they couldn't tell people what hadn't yet been planned and since they weren't yet planning a 4.0 expansion they couldn't answer any questions about it.)

The players who tried to spin their refusal to discuss what didn't exist into sounding like they were going to drop support were being pretty ridiculous. It could just as well have been spun to suggest the game as a whole would stop being supported on any platform, since they didn't make any promises about that either.
