@mrpyo1 I don’t know what others will do but I will without a doubt not be sticking with PlayStation and it will be the first generation I do not purchase.

It's true. I wished for this.

With OBSESSION (@obsessionmovie) now available on Digital at home, Freaky Nikki found my address and sent over a One Wish Willow care package.

I've got ONE DIGITAL CODE for Obsession to GIVE AWAY. RT this tweet and YOU will be entered to win!

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??

@SpawnPoiint I have zero incentive to purchase a PlayStation 6. It will be the first gen I don’t own. Terrible decision.

[Bill "The Extreme" Harding @strangelyzen]

@Wario64 As well as my thirty year relationship with PlayStation. No physical games for me to purchase then I’m done.

@HuskerFootball @Huskers @adidasFballUS By the look of the comments, should probably just scrap these. I can’t believe they did all that hype for some bland jersey reveal.

[Bill "The Extreme" Harding @strangelyzen]

@HuskerOnline This is what all that hype and buildup was for?

[Bill "The Extreme" Harding @strangelyzen]

@FANGORIA Strong list!

[THE KINGCAST @Kingcast19]

It is Pop-Pop’s deathday, so that means everyone has to crank up Dragula, chug the grossest White Claw flavor you can find, drive without a valid license, and read a chapter from Revival. Or remember Wampler in a less interesting way. I’m not your dad.
