It has now been over 4 days since Playstation made the post:
- It has over 128m views, more than they have active users monthly on Playstation Network
- They tried to remove community note but it was replaced with another
- They didn't expect this level of pushback internally
- They seems to wait Microsoft to announce the XBOX layoffs so the focus will be that over them
No matter what, we can't forget this!!! KEEP FIGHTING!!
El candidato a la presidencia de Francia, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, arremete contra PlayStation y Rockstar Games:
“Con GTA 6 sin disco y el anuncio de Sony de poner fin a la ventas de discos físicos, surge la pregunta de cómo consideramos estos productos.
El videojuego no es una simple mercancía, es un bien cultural y la legislación vigente debe aplicarse a él.
Abrimos la obra en 2027. Los jugadores y jugadoras también tienen derechos.”
REMINDER: SONY WANTED TO SHUT DOWN THE PS3 STORE WHEN THE PS5 RELEASED. THEY REVERSED COURSE DUE TO PUSHBACK.
THEY TRIED TO FORCE PC PLAYERS TO LINK PSN ACCOUNTS FOR HELDIVERS 2. THEY REVERSED COURSE DUE TO PUSHBACK

Asociaciones de consumidores de varios países han presentado demandas a PlayStation.
"Alegando que un futuro totalmente digital podría reducir la competencia, hacer subir los precios y dejar a los jugadores con menos opciones".

Siempre seré un defensor del formato físico.
No tengo nada en contra del formato digital, pero no es justo que nos quiten la posibilidad de elegir cómo comprar nuestros juegos.
Así no, PlayStation. Así no.
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😎

We will not be able to freely access the movies, books, and music that we have loved. I would be a have-not. That's what I'm afraid of. This is not greed.

Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiative. Whenever there is a major change or accident in the world, in a country, in a government, in an idea, in a trend, access to it may suddenly be cut off.
