PlayStation has won a spot in an Australian consumer group’s “Hall of Shame” for making players pay for games they don’t actually own. Consumer group Choice has criticised Sony’s digital game policy, pointing out that buying a game on the PlayStation Store doesn’t mean you own it. You’re only buying a licence to access it, which Sony can revoke. The group also warns that this could become a much bigger problem if physical games disappear. “There won’t be any alternatives once the discs go away.”
