I am an old fart who is also a geek. Currently resides in Las Vegas. I am a writer by trade (not a book writer) but code. I play and develop video games.
I hear you loud and clear who would have thought Microsoft would end up being gamers saving grace.
Seriously considering selling all. I hate it but you're right that was the nail in the coffin. Plus you forgot the latest price increase to PS+
279 physical games
PlayStation
PSOne
PS II
PS II SLIM
PS3 Original fat
PS4
PS4 Pro
PS4 Pro StarWars
PS5 Custom all back
All has original boxes except the PS3
About $7000 could be more but they want get any more of my money.
It’s really sad watching Sony destroy its own legacy and reputation before our eyes🚀
For as long as I’ve been gaming, Sony PlayStation was always synonymous with gaming and fun, and yet somehow this generation was a colossal disappointment, and ending physical games is the nail in the coffin
✅Abysmal first party line-up
✅Barely any innovation
✅Risk-averse development
✅Little communication
✅Condescending attitude towards fans
✅Pushing for live service and failing
✅Acquiring studios, including Bungie, and then shutting many down, or producing nothing of value even years later
And now the future with PS6 looks like:
✅Speculated overpriced ~$1000 console
✅Likely years of cross/gens like PS5
✅No ownership
✅No physical discs
✅Potentially higher prices
✅A monopoly is seemingly in the making
✅Region locked codes in boxes
✅Playing at the mercy of a digital storefront and its network capabilities, customer support and “access” that can end at any time without compensation
I don’t think there’s a way back for Sony to earn back the respect they’ve lost, no matter what they do with PS6.
Unless they overturn the decision against physical games, fire their CEOs and apologize, and maybe even then many people will still feel skeptical because they really showed us who they are, and there’s no “sorry” to undo seeing the truth.
And this doesn’t make me happy, because a staple in gaming, whether it makes money or not, has lost its untouchable status and near universal respect and love, with their own hands.
NO DISC 💿 NO BUY
boycott Sony and PlayStation. I know it hurts you want to play that game that you been waiting to play so get it on another platform and hit Sony and PlayStation where it hurts,their wallets
PlayStation report 82% of their game sales are digital!
Note: Includes all PS4/PS5 full game software units sold on PlayStation. Including games that are digital only.
Even game developers are not happy with you @Sony@PlayStation. You fucked up. You forgot PlayStation has always been a platform people went to for physical games and even used for watching their physical movies/shows on.
exactly we need to close the borders completely only immigrants allowed in is if they have already started their IS citizenship and paid for their return ticket. Then when they step off the plane wisk them away to start immunization if they pass they accept their citizenship and they get the money back that was collected if they don't pass or decide not become a citizen then handcuff until they are on their way back to their home country. Then we do away with seats this was developed because so many people didn't know how to vote.This is the only way an immigrant is allowed to enter the United States. Otherwise we are going to end up like Australia,Sain, Europe, Canada. Hell New and California is already there.
it's practically every country this what president Trump is trying to stop but America is too stupid to see it. open the borders and who comes in has 14 days to start American citizenship. If you do want to that then we don't want them here.
@cb_doge This is exactly what has happened in Australia, we then produce the worse, most corrupt left wing governments in history and can’t get rid of them, it is actual insanity as that is what a bureaucracy is meant to protect the public from. Exactly that.
