"Steam también es digital, te van a quitar los juegos"

No, no va a pasar. La documentación de Steam advierte a los Publishers que el juego, aunque se retire de la tienda, DEBE seguir ofreciendo la descarga del mismo.

Es una condición de publicación en Steam.

I completely understand where you’re coming from, but for a lot of gamers physical discs are the only way they could afford to play games because they could get them secondhand. You can also give games to your younger siblings Which is a great way to introduce them to the games you were playing.

Most importantly though, as we saw from PlayStation this past week, if the media we buy is only digital, it can be taken away from us at a moment’s notice with no recourse. Imagine that, one day your entire library of games could be deleted overnight because technically you don’t own it.

The smartphone really revolutionized the waiting room. Oh I get 20 minutes to look at my phone? Don’t mind if I do. The only problem is sometimes when I’m looking at my phone at home my home starts to feel like a waiting room and I realize it is and I’m just waiting to die

Dont let news like this discourage you.

Sony is banking on people feeling powerless in this situation (thats why these news stories are getting published while they stay silent)

Just as quickly as they flipped the switch away from physical, they can switch it back towards physical (also this is only 1 of their factories)

Hold the line, keep applying pressure.

Sony needs YOU more than you need THEM.

Even if Physical purchases are only 20% of the pie - thats a large enough slice to move the needle.

Just to show you how scummy Sony is being with this news.

They anticipated their numbers would drop through people protesting/boycotting by canceling Ps Plus and pre-orders but they won't have to show their numbers to investors until the end of September.

Their next earnings call is July 31st however it only covers up to June 30th. They planned this out perfectly to drop it on July 1st for this very reason. The numbers dip early July, they have over 2 months to watch them HOPEFULLY recover as the deperate gamers crawl back and the investors see that Sony moving away from physical games didn't hurt anything.

Keep this is mind as we move forward. Sony is betting on you caving and crawling back to them in the coming weeks. Oh and so are the investors.

It’s soooooo hot can we please stop bombing countries, switch to green energy, and give AI a little timeout? We beg

They didn’t call it “Sentinel” or “Guardian.”

They called it “Flock.”

As in: something you herd, track, count, and keep from wandering off the reservation.

They see us as livestock.

Zero respect.

[Maximilian Uriarte @TLCplMax]

The great irony of Sony's PlayStation disc scandal is that Sony literally co-invented the CD, the DVD, and the BluRay and actively worked to popularize them all in different ways.

I collect physical media and will always find a way to release my games physically.

The fact is, if mainstream publishers stop, independent boutique publishers will continue making collectors editions that will be way better anyway.

That is till next gen consoles are digital only…

I’m so broke that I’m making myself mad thinking about past financial decisions. Why have I paid guys to kiss each other at the bar on like three different occasions.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
