If I can’t buy the physical media, I don’t need the physical console.

Just saying.

United hiding their failure in transfer markets behind world cup buzz

[Shanaka Anslem Perera ⚡ @shanaka86]

On the same day Sony told a billion gamers to embrace digital forever, it quietly showed them the catch.

Two announcements, one blog, an hour apart.

First: from January 2028, no new PlayStation game will ship on a disc, digital only.

Second, buried below: Sony is closing the online stores for the PlayStation 3 and Vita, so you will no longer be able to buy games there at all.

Read together, they are not two stories. They are the whole argument about what you actually own.

A disc is the last thing in your home a Silicon Valley company cannot reach. A PlayStation game from 1994 still works today, and the law lets you resell it, lend it, keep it forever.

That is ownership. It is protected by something called the first-sale doctrine, and it applies to physical objects. It does not apply to digital purchases. That is not Sony being cruel. That is the quiet legal truth underneath the whole shift.

Sony's own spokesperson said it plainly today. With all digital content, you are not buying the game. You are buying a personal license for non-commercial use. Not the thing. Permission to use the thing, which depends on the company's servers and goodwill. They once pulled a game called Concord two weeks after launch. Buyers got refunds, but the game itself simply vanished.

This was never really about discs versus downloads. It is about moving the largest entertainment medium on Earth from a world where you own an object the law protects, to one where you hold access the law treats as rented.

Convenient, cheaper, and easier for almost everyone. Also revocable in a way a disc never was.

The click of a disc into a console was ownership. The download is permission. Sony just showed you, in a single morning, how differently the two age.

Do you agree with what Sony did??

Sony is currently charging $70 for God of War Ragnarok digitally. It is $32 at Wal-Mart. The game is 4 years old.

People will no longer have options after 2028 and will HAVE to go directly to Sony’s digital storefront and pay whatever PlayStation says.

It was such a poorly made film, everything felt fake. Right from the sets to a 65yo buddha acting like a kid with a cringe fake punjabi accent

“The physical version will include a disc in box”

[Pranav @pranav_fc]

@haalarsemufc @Yeah_I_Asked All the PS5 exclusives launch at 5k, the 007 first light disc launched at 7k. This pricing isn't fair for Indian audience but if you compare with the market, the price in india for GTA is pretty okay.

[Pranav @pranav_fc]

I feel like GTA VI price point in India is very competitive, especially when you put in the 100s of hours of gameplay
