The PlayStation app is getting review bombed over the end of physical discs.
Gamers are furious and tired of corporate greed.
“PS5 will be my last console if Sony insists on digital only.”
PlayStation has abandoned social media for 5 days now after the huge backlash over the end of physical releases from everyone except some bootlickers.
This is apparently not the first time, they already did it when they shut down Bluepoint Games.
They probably think people will forget and will eat this up.
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.
Es loquísimo lo de este tuit eh, jamás había visto nada igual. Es, con diferencia, la mayor cagada de la historia de los videojuegos, y mira que han habido. Me alegra ver una indignación tan unánime. Y la nota de la comunidad, canela en rama.
PlayStation fought hard and got the previous community note on the post removed, but now they have an even better one.
According to the note, based on leaked info, they lied.
“From the Insomniac leak, PlayStation's own single-player games make up 60-77% of sales.
The data being used to argue for higher digital purchases include DLC, expansions, digital-only games such as early access, and live services.”
PlayStation updated its Terms of Service in April 2026, and Section 21 outlines how inactive PSN accounts may be closed.
> If a PSN account remains inactive for 36 months, Sony may begin the account closure process. The account holder will receive an email notification and has 6 months to sign in or request that the account remain active.
> If no action is taken and the account is closed, access to PlayStation Network services will end.
>Any digital purchases tied to that account, including games, DLC, and other digital content, will no longer be accessible.
According to the Terms of Service, this process is irreversible.
Casi tres días sin abrir la boca. Estos tíos tienen que estar acojonados y con razón. Saben que han hecho la mayor barbaridad, la declaración más asquerosa y peligrosa de la historia de los videojuegos
Seguramente les estén lloviendo demandas y amenazas de mil empresas distintas

La fin du jeu vidéo physique arrive, et c’est un scandale pour notre pouvoir d’achat et nos libertés.
Dès 2028, Sony ne vendra plus de jeux PlayStation sur disque, mais uniquement en dématérialisé. Le problème ? vous ne posséderez plus rien, juste une licence révocable. Pas de revente, pas de prêt possible. Sans concurrence physique, les prix vont grimper.
Pire : cette annonce survient après le refus de la Commission européenne de légiférer sur l'Initiative Citoyenne Européenne “Stop Killing Games” malgré 1,3 million de signatures. Une faute majeure qui condamne aussi l’occasion et la visibilité des petits studios.
Je me battrai au Parlement européen pour protéger la propriété numérique et les consommateurs face à ces dérives 🇪🇺

Esto es una coña mala
Por qué ahora de repente todos los medios (sobre todo españoles) hacen publicidad de la PS Store y apología de lo digital ignorando totalmente la polémica? Les han pagado? Es ragebait?
