Here's how bad the memory crisis has gotten: in 2026, AMD is reportedly bringing 4GB graphics cards back.
A spec we buried years ago is returning, not because anyone wants it, but because RAM has become too expensive to put more of it in. AI data centres get the memory; budget gamers get the leftovers.
We were sold the future. Instead our hardware is quietly walking backwards.
Would you actually buy a brand-new 4GB GPU in 2026?
Sony finally addressed the physical disc backlash, on its earnings call this week. The response? Their CFO said the company is "not seeing any impact on our business" and will "cautiously move this forward." Discs still end in January 2028.
Thousands of "no disc, no buy" comments, petitions and even lawsuits, and the answer is a corporate version of "we hear you, and we're doing it anyway."
When a company stops making the thing you want and tells you your anger changes nothing, what leverage does a customer actually have left?
Sony is now facing a lawsuit in the Netherlands worth over €400 million (~$457M) over its plan to stop producing physical PlayStation discs from January 2028. The group behind it says it represents around 1.7 million PlayStation owners.
Their argument is simple: no discs means no resale, no lending, no alternative to the PS Store. From 2028, Sony alone decides the price and how long you're allowed to play.
Should any company be able to quietly remove ownership from something you paid for?
Buying tech isn’t getting cheaper anymore.
The PS5’s revised pricing (₹69,990) in India is another example of how global component costs are reshaping what we pay, even for products that have been in the market for years.
Where do you think this trend stops?
WhatsApp is rolling out a batch of free updates, a rebuilt CarPlay experience for hands-free messages and calls, the option to run your account on an iPad, and smarter AI reply suggestions.
Which of these would you actually use?
iPhone 17 launched at ₹82,990 in India.
Now reports suggest it could cost ₹94,990 from August. That's a ₹12,000.
Apple hasn't officially confirmed it yet, but if this happens, it'll be one of the biggest post-launch price hikes we've seen for an iPhone in India.
The AI era is starting to hit our wallets.
Would you still buy it at ₹94,990?
Imagine losing your entire Xbox library because your account got hacked… and instead of helping you, the platform permanently bans your account.
That’s exactly what happened to a gamer in Brazil.
A court has now ordered Microsoft to restore his account, bring back his full digital library, and pay him around $400 in damages. Microsoft reportedly fought the case with a 300-page defense and a team of lawyers but still lost.
It’s one person’s case, but it raises a much bigger question for all of us.
Do we really own our digital games, or do we only have access to them until a company decides otherwise?
Why did I buy Assassin's Creed Black Flag on Disc in 2026? 👀💿
Because some gaming experiences can't be downloaded.

Finished 007 First Light.
Strong first impression with cinematic cutscenes and enjoyable action, but the gameplay loop becomes repetitive and the story never really hooks you in. The twists and reveals felt more predictable than surprising.
It’s not a bad game, just one that had the ingredients to be much better.
7/10.
