I am officially done buying PlayStation products. Thanks for making that decision incredibly easy, @Sony

@XBOX (I do have about $20 in my PSN wallet that I used to purchase some old PS3 PSN games back before they announced the end of disc production. Since that will just sit there and rot otherwise, I'll spend those after the blackout and then be done logging into PSN indefinitely).

I'm busy with work at the start of the #PSBlackout - but I'll my Switch, Xbox, and PC/Steam Deck come first moving forward.

Thanks, @XBOX, announcing disc-to-digital program. This is a step in the right direciton.

Until you #DontKillTheDisc Sony, it's a #NoDiscNoBuy from me.

@asha_shar I'm a bit surprised you didn't move to announce this on July 1st. Almost two months later instead. You have an uphill battle to climb to gain our trust back long-term.

This is a good first step. Keep going.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@kiwitalkz @asha_shar Correct.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@BringBackBanjoK This is a strong statement for a company that has been massacring every company it has acquired.

I get it, I feel the wrongs they have done are not as existential as Sony's disc elimination, but I don't view them as "saving" the industry until this is a pattern and not a one-off

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@xMBGx At this rate? Never.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@PlayStation You all at Sony are cowards.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@PlayStation You're cooked without physical media.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@asha_shar Spinning out studios like Double Fine and Ninja Theory were the correct decision.

Gutting id Software was not.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@JoshFairhurst Very glad you and your former team went though the efforts to bring this to a physical edition. Thank you!

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@LimitedRunGames LOVE THIS

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@Genki_JPN @GenePark @GamesCage_ Exactly why I was confused with this move as well.

I guess Nintendo will just have complete dominance over the physical space?

Do you think this is the continued fallout of SIE's 2016 move for their operations & global headquarters to California?

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@levas1786 @Stealth40k Spot on. It's funny, I was mostly on PC from 2018-2021, but then I picked up a Switch 1 for exclusives. I ran into troubleshooting issues (Windows) with PC and I was excited for what the XSX and PS5 had on the horizon, so I picked up both.

PS5 will be my last Sony console.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@asha_shar and her team at @XBOX have the chance to do the funniest thing ever.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@Sony I hope the PS6 crashes and burns so bad, all of your C-Suite is jettisoned by your board.

You crossed the line.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@levas1786 @Stealth40k Not a bad move at all.

I'm quite fond of my Vita and PS3. Put a decent amount of hours on both. They're from a time when consoles used be true turnkey systems. Now there's a lot more baggage with the decision.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@scti2o @Fangamer Switch version.

[bub_mario @bub_mario]

@Nintendeal Kind of wild, interesting to see the xbox version of GTA6 handily outclass the PS5 version.

@Dominos_UK Y'all are the GOATs
