- Apple price increase
- Steam Machine being expensive
- Xbox price increase
- GTA 6 being 80 USD
- people being unable to buy SSDs and RAM
all of these are tied to one thing btw:

you don’t hate this guy enough
After sitting with the Playstation news for a bit, I came to realize something…
Isn’t what Sony is doing kinda illegal?
They’re essentially creating a monopoly by gutting any market except the ps store.
No competition. No competitive prices. Nothing.
Seems illegal to me.
Heads up. Sony/PlayStation are taking down any posts on Reddit which prove that they're lying about the physical vs digital sales comparisons and skewing the numbers 👌
Need you guys to realize Sony is gonna go dark for a while to try and let this all blow over need EVERYONE to keep being loud asf for as long as possible because the second people lose steam on the pushback is the second they win and the decision truly stays set in stone
@PlayStation So, you’re attempting some risk management with 50% off your service in hopes of people not to abandon ship? Interesting. How about giving people what they want, something reliable, and something tangible/accessible? Not just with internet and subscriptions. PHYSICAL GAMES. 📝
Why did everyone decide to shit on us simultaneously this year? @Sony , @XBOX , and @A24, please give us a God damn break. We are witnessing firsthand how these companies are constantly betraying their loyal customers to line their pockets for themselves through greed. Fuck em’.
All this technology whether it’s abhorrent A.I, soon to be dictated Digital Streaming, or the issue of privacy and data collection, they know what they are doing and simply don’t GAF. I’m over seeing these superficial, carefully worded responses that dismiss any accountability.
@PlayStation You are killing ownership. You are killing legal preservation. You are killing discoverability. You are killing publishers. You are killing developers. This is a move that might slightly improve bottom lines, but tear down every other aspect of this medium. Well done! You f*d up!
PlayStation fans are massively cancelling their PS Plus subscriptions to protest Sony’s move toward a digital-only future.
Many players are sharing screenshots of their cancelled subscriptions online, this is one of the few ways gamers can send a clear message to Sony that they want games on physical discs.
Money is the only language these companies understand.
Everyone is worried about game ownership and preserving games
Keep the backlash.
‼️DESASTRE‼️
Rockstar ordena retirar toda publicidad con Playstation para alejarse lo mas que pueda de la mierda en la que se metió.
La aplicación de Playstation ya no tiene el tema de GTA VI y la pagina de X quito el banner de GTAVI.
Las cosas siguen empeorando para Sony
SONY CAN DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT FOR NOT PLAYING.
while everyone argued about disc drives, the internet actually read Sony's European Terms of Service. section 21 of the current terms - and the clause has been there for years.
- go 36 months without logging in, and Sony may begin closing your account
- they send one email warning. You get six months to respond
- miss that email, and your entire digital library - games, DLC, purchases - becomes permanently inaccessible
- "Account closure is irreversible" - direct quote from the document
now do the math with what Sony announced this week:
> from 2028 physical disc production for new games ends - there is no backup plan.
> three years of real life - deployment, illness, a broken console - and everything you've bought over the years hangs on a single email sent to whatever address you registered in 2026.
THE DISC NEVER ASKED IF YOU'D BEEN ACTIVE LATELY.
> be a PS5 owner
> you paid extra for the disc drive
> Sony ends physical discs for new games in 2028
> PS Store on PS3 and Vita dies by 2027
> 551 movies wiped from UK and EU libraries Sept 1
> zero compensation
> GTA 6 ships as a code in a box
> some Switch 2 games ship as empty cards, just a download key
> used games and rentals could be next
> analysts warn discounts might disappear too
> Sony would control the entire price curve
> 87 percent of pre 2010 games are already out of print
They didn't kill physical media. They stopped pretending you ever owned anything.
