Isn't there a way to raise awareness among gamers? A way to bring them together so we can take action against corporate nonsense? A boycott is the key. And we don't see any journalists or reviewers c...

To think that 20 years ago we had so much hope about how epic games would be today

Sorry, but it is about voting with your wallet. The uncomfortable truth is that most people are fine with several of these companies's decisions.

You can buy physical media for music and tv and movies, and even books, but videogames for some reason are expected to be the exception? No, we must raise hell. We have more power than ever to vote w...

If you own the disk you own the 1.0 patch of the game. The only games that dont have that say “internet required” which is just the more recent games. Most PS5 and PS4 games are playable from start t...

I think the most important thing is to make noise about it, the more noise, the better, if you make enough noise, there's a good chance that even those that aren't initially aware about consumer righ...

Sony just wants to control prices on their platform, as little discounts as possible

If the next consoles are only digital, I might skip that generation of consoles altogether. I don’t want to buy only digital games for the companies to then take them away or manipulate them to do wh...

Its literally just that simple. They can do because people will still buy it. If no one buys the game then they have to change or go under. The problem is you got people willing to buy anything just....

If this actually does happen, then say "goodbye" to GameStop. There's no way they could survive in that climate.

Physical media is being phased out for the simple reason that it forces consumers to buy content more than once, and allows the owners of the IP to simply cut off access at any given time, for any re...

"everybody is gonna buy it" Wanna bet? I, for one, have absolutely no interest in this game.

Having at least some of my games be physical is the main reason I bought a PS5. Without discs, I don't know why I would buy a PS6.

Not the ultimate answer, but we live a society where companies just have to weather the storm for about a month and people’s outrage moves onto the next big thing.

I just know this about to make the retro gaming market explode 😭 let me lock in and track down my faves

The biggest problem with All Digital, is that the game companies don't own the highway. The ISP'S do. What happens when AT&T decides the tolls aren't high enough and start hitting Sony with a "Premiu...

Y’all stopped buying them. That’s what’s happening. I got called old for defending collecting dvd, Blu-ray’s, cd, and vinyl the other day.

They got some balls to make that announcement after deleting 500 movies from people's profiles who worked hard to to pay for them

This is happening because people are ok with it and not looking deeper into it

It would be hilarious if we all started reposting the "How to share games on Playstation," video Sony did back in the day. At the end of the day, collective action is the only real leverage we possess

The people who defend GTA VI $100 digital ultimate edition don't understand that at least when we paid $80 for the deluxe edition in 2013, we got a steelbook case, a manual, a regular map, blueprint....

We cannot by any means Let “you will owe nothing and you’ll be happy” become an acceptable standard for not just games but media as a whole

If all these people didn't waste their money on a pre-order for a digital copy of the game. They would rethink making disc for the ultimate addition I'll tell you that much. A bunch of NPC's out here
