This is the funniest possible timing for them to post something like this holy shit 😭

>Killing physical media

>In the same announcement they're making hundreds of digital games lost forever

>Already removed hundreds of movies people already bought

100% a power move, they're telling the masses they are the ones in control and there's nothing they can do about it

Thinking about living in the pre-covid pre-genAI world is crazy now. I guess I just wish I had appreciated it more back then

[Dustin Furman @DustinCanFly]

Yeah this totally sucks. They will eventually try to blame this decision on the handheld, but the reality is, they want you spending more money on games, with less consumer choice.

Don't take my word for it! Look at the prices of physical vs digital on PSN for older titles.

Forget modernity, embrace tradition

[Joe Merrick @JoeMerrick]

I can't help but think gaming is in a really, really bad place right now.
Things like this, massive layoffs/closures across the industry losing thousands of talented people who will never return, and the continual refocus on the Hollywoodification of games in general.

I hate it.

Also Steam is just that much better than the console digital marketplaces. Get a Switch 2 if you absolutely need Nintendo first party games.

[broop @_broop]

At this point, building a gaming PC or getting a solid pre-built is the way to go (5070/9070XT). It sucks how expensive computer parts get, but the savings you’ll make buying games on Steam, and the ability to upgrade incrementally, seems to make it the most cost effective route.

[broop @_broop]

Yes, I know I’m saying you should spend $1500+ on a gaming rig. In the long run, if you play a lot of games, it’s worth it

Playstation: *lays off half of Bungie*

*Xbox jealous of the negative media attention*

Oh yeah check this out! *nukes their entire gaming division*

[Gene Park, Obama’s Skull Face @GenePark]

i don't like commenting on layoffs since i am surrounded by the reality of it every day. but i feel for Xbox folks who have to endure weeks of media coverage saying this or that while they get no answers in their 9 to 5. i just went thru this a few months ago. it's demoralizing.

[OmegaPro 🍉 @OmegaProYT]

Announcing that you’re no longer producing physical games at the same time as announcing that you’re shutting down a digital storefront is quite the choice

Sony & Microsoft every week 😭😂

[broop @_broop]

Oh hey, Sony managed to find a way to make the Steam Machine more cost effective than PS5.
