Tired of this stupid world!

[Rino🚀 @RinoTheBouncer]

Former PlayStation CEO, Shawn Layden spoke against Sony ending physical media and shed light on the concerns about game ownership in a digital-only future🚀

“If you don't own it, what are you buying?”

He added that this decision will be “a significant brand hit” and a “reputation bite” for PlayStation.

He went on to list the benefits of collecting and showing off your collection of games, and highlighted the very real concern about ownership:

“I think this is probably the more insidious aspect to it, is that it changes the conversation [to] ‘do you own a game or do you have access to a digital asset.

If you can’t sell a thing, that means you don’t own a thing. And if you don’t own it, then what are you buying? If you’re buying access, that doesn’t quite sound as sexy, to be honest. And people, as people tend to do, in their mind they’ll game out the worst case scenario.

And that’s a whole lot of brand hit and reputation bite that – as I said, I don’t have any visibility on the financials around it – but that’s a significant brand hit, and I hope it made sense to them.”

Once again, much respect to Layden as he proves to understand gamers and their concerns, rather than purely pleasing investors.

Him and Shuhei Yoshida would make great CEOs for Sony and probably are the only ones who can steer it back to what once was an unquestionably great entity at the top of the industry🥺

NO DISC 💿 NO BUY

@TeoVard @ItsIlusionYT Ok?? I can try to avoid the bad reviews, but 13 hours of gameplay for just goddam CAD $89?? That's crazy!

We buy a Wi-Fi router and pay for an internet subscription. We buy a console, buy games, and pay for an online game subscription. That’s absolutely insane!

[GamewithDave @1GamewithDave1]

Gaming subscriptions are starting to lose their appeal FAST.

More than 40% of people canceling Game Pass, PS Plus, and Nintendo Switch Online reportedly blame rising costs.

At what point does buying your games just become the better deal again?

Are subscriptions getting too expensive?

[KoolKenny @KoolKenny074_]

@NikTek That’s great, but Xbox consoles are still expenisve like increasing the prices from the original $500 to $760?? That's insane

I also thank God for them.

@DiscussingFilm Lol what? Is Tom Holland too short to be Hercules? 🤣🤣

[KoolKenny @KoolKenny074_]

What if I buy a PS5 with a disc cover, but it comes with a digital code, which is embarrassing, of course, and I want to replace the disc with a digital code at the same price? Why will it be $700 plus $70 with a digital code or a disc are still the same price, totaling around $800? If you’re still keeping the digital in the same box, can I replace the disc? If not, then no disc, no buy. Otherwise, we'll be very happy if you add the disc box inside the PS5 box.

[KoolKenny @KoolKenny074_]

@insomniacgames @GhostSpoiler But does it still include the disc in the box?

[KoolKenny @KoolKenny074_]

This is because they dishonor those who created PlayStation and now they are bastards destroying it. Let's hope they lose money and the PS6 flops.

Day 38 of posting an image of Nishino Hideaki and Lin Tao to spread awareness that they're evil bastards who wants to take away your ownership by halting the production of game discs.
