Shadow drop. More like a well placed punch to buckle their opponent. Sony is a big company - do you really think they announced something as drastic as forced digital without a strategy? Everyone has to mentally toughen up.
I hate to say this, but Sony might’ve been correct to call their current physical outrage a load of bluff when most people are getting easily folded by the Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 and 2 PS4/5 ports' shadow drop, literally crashing the whole PlayStation Store

Yeah console is done. Nothing these companies can do is too far for y'all if you people are ACTUALLY buying two SIXTEEN year old video games with NO UPDATES for $40 DOLLARS EACH with a separate purchase of DLC for $30. EACH. $70 PORTS. Y'all are farmed cattle GG.
@ChoochSkookum You mean -> tell all the young people its the older generations fault and never discuss the politicians, the bankers, or the corporate executives who continue the scheme even today.
@TRIPSTER0 Y'all realize the most reasonable explanation for the GTA6 delay was for this very moment. They need your desire for GTA to be stronger than your desire to physically hold a product.
@Emanuel66201297 They aren't ignoring it. They have sent out a swarm of accounts to call people internet nerds, argue about the definition of ownership, promote the convenience of digital, tell you discs don't last forever, etc. They are very much a part of the discussion.
Definitely the politicians who made it legal but also the corporate executives who mandated it (which I see you included later) but also the ideologues who propagandized everyone that it was a good thing. All enriched themselves at everyone else's expense and have brought the nation to the brink (yet to be decided).
If the console requires any type of online check to function, holding the physical is not much different than all digital.
It has to work offline, for as long as it physically lasts.
They are trying to manufacture consensus with the same type of argument as "Love is love". Basically lies.
We just love one another folks, honest. We'll never adopt and rape a kid to death, we'll never have children dance for dollars, we'll never dress up in drag and read to them, and we'll certainly never change our terms of service and there is absolutely no way we'll ever link access to your social credit score.
Those are just silly stories of course.
Can someone please tell me 1 time where Sony deleted a PAID digital game from gamers psn accounts. People keep talking about how COULD do this but I feel like theres zero precedent that they actually have done this. And the 1 time they did with concord, they refunded everyone 🤷🏾♂️
I still don't think I'm fully understanding the outrage at not having physical discs for games.
Is it cool to have a physical copy? For sure, I still buy physical quite a bit. But is it necessary to enjoy a game?
After so many years of gaming and then going back to specific games, a big part of the experience of the games I loved was who I was when I played them. What was going on around me at the time. Who I was playing them with.
I don't need my original Halo: CE disc to taste the late night, Mt. Dew and pizza fueled LAN parties.
I don't need my original Pokemon Yellow cart to remember being 10 years old and hiding under the blankets playing the game when I was supposed to be sleeping.
I don't need a physical copy of Gauntlet Legends to remember the multiple all-nighters we pulled on that game.
I don't need a disc copy of League of Legends to hang out with some of my best friends that I've met because of the game.
It will always be incredible to be able to relive those memories by replaying a game, but maybe it should be more about the experience than buying something.
Buddy hit the nail on the head. If Trump made this speech everyone would be shouting four more years. Instead we found out who fears real America, our forefathers America.
We saw you all take the call from your handlers. Collect that check, traitors.
