@ROS5IHD@PlayStation speak for YOURSELF, I buy movies on dvd/blu-ray, I buy music on cd's, I buy games on disc(for now), I buy and support physical media because I choose to OWN what buy! internet goes out, i can still watch movies, listen to music and play my games. #physicalmedia
As someone who exclusively covers PlayStation, I must speak and speak firmly.
The powers at be take more of our money than ever, but they will NOT take our consumer rights or our opportunity to decide our ownership of purchased content.
We deserve every opportunity to decide how we purchase, sell and manage our media.
Do NOT sit down in silence, speak out, be forceful, and make sure we DON’T look back on this moment in years to come with great regret.
Save physical media, it’s matters, it REALLY matters.
The internet has been VERY loud about @PlayStation / @Sony 's decision, but people will need to get a LOT louder if they want to see a satisfying result.
Use the algorithms to YOUR 🫵 advantage! Use hashtags, repost relevant posts you come across, like the posts, comment on the posts, and most importantly, TAG SONY AND PLAYSTATION whenever you can!
Now, let’s 10x the noise for the rest of today!

Refuting dumb arguments against physical games🚀
🗣️“85% of players buy digital”
✅15% or even 5% in this industry is still millions of people bringing in hundreds of millions of not billions o revenue
🗣️“Netflix and Spotify ended movie and music Blu-Rays and CDs”
✅Movies are still being sold on Blu-Ray and 4K UHD Blu-Rays, and music is still released on CDs, vinyl records and even collectible cassette tapes that actually work, despite being far smaller and less demanding than video games which can go over 100GB
🗣️“I haven’t bought a physical game for 10 years! It’s obsolete”
✅Your experience with games does not automatically reflect everyone else’s. If you don’t care, don’t get in the way
🗣️“It’s expensive to make games on disc”
✅Games won’t be cheaper when man all digital. You will pay the same price for a glorified rental that can be taken any time due to licensing agreements or account loss/suspension
🗣️“You’re too broke, you want to buy second hand and resell games”
✅Being a bootlicker to corporations that don’t know you exist, does not make you any less broke than those you accuse and posture in front of behind a keyboard
Physical games should always be an option. Video games are far more than just a file to download or “access” to gain. They hold sentimental value to players and collectors.
Raise your voices, players, game makers, gaming and memorabilia stores. Let us overturn this predatory decision!
Video games are an art form, not just a business and the value players hold for them should be honored and not reduced to a code to redeem and a download to revoke😎
@Variety Wil Wheaton and George Takei can go fuck them selves. NO ONE is obligated to reveal their political views if they CHOOSE not to. I have more respect for @TheRock
