I Blame #GenZ idiots, but it will come back to bite them in the ass, all because they’re too lazy to drive 10-15 min to their local GameStop /Best Buy/target.
Dear PlayStation.
I'm sorry you don't want my money anymore. I'm sure I'll find other ways to spend it. Good luck with your future endeavours.
All the best,
An ex-customer
Physical media forever. X
@pipisonx@EternalLeeHD Blame Gen Z idiots, but it will come back to bite them in the ass, all because they’re too lazy to drive 10-15 min to their local GameStop /Best Buy/target.
PlayStation just announced that new games will be released as digital only starting in 2028.
Do you see it yet?
You will live in the pods. You will eat the bugs. You will own nothing. You will stream the compute.
Do not ignore what’s happening. They want you to live in a world where you are a RENTER that BORROWS everything. They want you to be a subscriber that LEASES their life from a master.
Do not be a digital slave that can have their access to life revoked at any moment in time. If you own nothing, you can be shut out at a moments notice.
It can and WILL happen to you. You are not protected by being “good.” You don’t know how quickly rules and sentiments can change.
This is very scary. This is real. This is happening.
Make noise. Do not go gently. Reject the paradigm.
Heed this warning. This path leads to you eventually not owning your physical body. No idea how that ultimately looks in the end, how technologically this plays out, but that is the conclusion and it WILL happen as this road continues.
Anything you don’t own can and WILL be taken from you. This is not conspiracy theory, this is educated fact. Do not let people dismiss this or hand wave you away.
Hoard hardware. Hoard physical media. Protect your material things. Do not let all your memories and history eventually disappear. Do not allow yourself to be gatekept.

I truly hope PlayStation goes bankrupt. You’re gonna charge me $1000+ for a PS6 that uses digital only and still charge $70-100 per game? Yeah fuck this company. Gaming is dying and its last hurrah will be GTA 6. What a way to end.. thank you AI tech bros. You pieces of shits
PlayStation is ending production of physical game discs for all new games, starting January 2028.
From that date, new games will be available in digital formats only.
NEW: Sony just announced that as of September 1st, 2026 you will no longer be able to watch over 550 previously purchased movies from StudioCanal (Terminator 2, Total Recall, Basic Instinct, Paddington, The Pianist, Johnny English etc.) on the PlayStation
YOU NEED TO OWN YOUR PHYSICAL MEDIA. DIGITAL MEDIA CAN AND WILL BE TAKEN FROM YOU.
Do you see why digital is dangerous? Do you see why people keep saying "You will live in the pods. You will eat the bugs. You will own nothing?"
You can be deplatformed, deserviced, demonetized, and eventually dehumaned at ANY POINT IN TIME.
If you don't have something physically IN YOUR POSSESSION, it is not yours.
Hoard physical media. Hoard physical hardware. Hoard material goods. Heed this warning.

@TombstoneX@GameNetCorp The point still stands digital content is truly never yours, today the excuse it’s license agreement, tomorrow it’s virus that completely wipes out drives.
People are finding out the hard way that buying digital isn't buying, it's renting.
Every disc, tape, and cartridge I own still works. No matter how many licenses expire, no corporation can reach into my house and take it back.
That's the entire argument for physical media, sitting right there in that email.
