Reminder that it took Xbox nearly 2 weeks to reverse those awful anti-used games and digital check-in decisions after E3 2013.
Even if it takes ages till Sony/PlayStation finally addresses anything, don't stop bullying them!
Nintendo used a specific stock photo of the sky that was used for cartridge artwork on three different games released in 1996: Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, and Pilotwings 64.
They will destroy your whole hobby and go away with a smile and a lot of money in their pockets, the last straw of capitalism greed.
Fuck Sony and Playstation.
I SAID IT YEARS AGO AND I GOT MOCKED FOR IT SO I'LL SAY IT AGAIN
AI SHITPOSTS ARE PART OF THE REASON AI GOT NORMALIZED
YALL WERE TOO FUCKING BLIND TO SEE IT HAPPENING IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES
700 PS5 games were tested and 93% of them played fully without any internet connection or download
Don’t let them make you think otherwise
Physical ownership IS ownership
Once again fuck you @PlayStation
It's actually been like this for over a decade, since the 360/PS3 era, maybe even earlier lol
The amount of times I've encountered dudes throughout my entire time in school, who played exclusively ball & gun games, who looked at me funny cause I played JRPGs, Mario and Zelda
93% of PS5 discs come with fully playable content without internet requirement🚀
Sony wants to take that away from you:
✅To create a monopoly
✅To end ownership
✅To censor or take away games on a whim
✅To end second hand market & trading
✅To jack up prices far higher
NO DISC 💿 NO BUY

Randomly announcing that physical games will be phased out by 2028 is one thing. But acting like nothing happened afterwards, ignoring your fans and partners, and refusing to properly answer any of the questions is what really makes me even more angry.
I seriously think gumshoos needs a redesign.
It’s not ugly in an endearing way, like Bruxish or crabominable, it looks too much like a certain someone.
It really sucks that after nearly 27 years of not owning a gaming console I finally get one and now the industry chooses to go to shit, I literally just got here…
Brazil has proposed a bill with new protections for gamers 🇧🇷
• After support ends, publishers would need to either enable offline play, provide the community with tools to keep the game running, or offer proportional refunds
• Publishers would have to disclose online-server requirements and guarantee at least 2 years of support after launch in Brazil
• Players would need to be notified at least 180 days before a game's online services are shut down
• Lawmakers have also requested an investigation into Sony’s plan to end physical PlayStation disc production in 2028
