At this point, we're convinced that Konami is just trolling. Not content with – deep breath – cancelling Silent Hills, de-listing P.T. from the PlayStation Store, and removing the license from download lists – it's now stopping people from Share Playing it, too. To be fair, this could be an infrastructure issue on Sony's end, but we wouldn't put it past the Japanese publisher to put a block in place.
For those out of the loop, Share Play allows you to stream your games to other systems, essentially enabling someone to play a title that they may not own. For those not lucky enough to have downloaded Hideo Kojima's petrifying promotional escapade in time, then, it seemed like a good enough workaround to give people a chance to experience it. But no – it looks like you'll have to watch it on YouTube instead.
Well, until the publisher starts issuing copyright claims, we guess.

I was wondering when this would happen.
After MGS V, I'm done with Konami. Bunch of pieces of human garbage running that company.
I will never forgive those monsters at Konami for canceling what would arguably have turned out to be the scariest game ever made.
Like square with tomb raider, I will be purchasing mgs v in a way that Konami won't receive a dime of my money. I'm done. Pt is the straw that broke the camels back for me.
Absolutely ridiculous.
Haters be hating. I look forward to having my video pulled from YT and getting a strike against my profile because Konami won't let us have nice things. #Sarcasm
@Gamer83 more like after MGV5, Konami is done with us... They are shifting focus from console games obviously.
If this isn't some legal or logistical issue then it really is quite pathetic of Konami.
Washing my hands of konami .
Can P.T still be re-downloaded in europe?
Because they've already green lit some third rate isometric dlc heavy piece of junk and don't wanna look bad
Was it all a dream?
FU konamibarf.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I'll stream play it on Twitch every now and again till they disallow that as well.
Well now that that game is dead and Kojima is gone, what does Konami have left?
