Acquiescence

The Mermaid Mask. A murder mystery masterpiece.

@LemanRusk It's scary to me how willing people are to give up their consumer rights.

Yeah that's fine, I'll continue to enjoy seeing everything Sony uploads on their social medias get battered to hell by outrage posts. I'll delight in joining in too.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer company.

I wish Sega would get back in the hardware race, especially now that the Xbox brand is borderline finished. I'd buy a Sega console with a disc drive over the PS6 in a heartbeat.

@Oram77 Everyone except the shills who are happy to lick Sony's boot I guess.

All the replies are about physical media and discs and nothing else. I'm sure Marvel is thrilled about this.

I refuse to take a defeatist attitude towards this. Either they reverse this decision and continue to support physical media beyond 2028, or I'll move elsewhere next gen.

It's time to accept that the PlayStation of now is the Xbox of 2013. But that doesn't mean we have to like it.

@BloodyBlact Nope, some of us refuse to bow down to late stage capitalism. All of us should be fighting for our consumer rights. If that bothers you then you're the problem.

Over 4,000 comments to the PlayStation Blog post now. People are outraged and they're not afraid to express it.

I am not buying a £1000 console that doesn't even allow me to own my games on a disc. That is ridiculous.

Thanks PlayStation. It's been a fun ride, but it ends this generation it seems.

Instead of shuttering Bluepoint, it would've been nice if Sony put them to work on a LittleBigPlanet remastered collection as a last resort or something.

I hope we're not being threatened with a re-branding of Fairgames.

On the bright side, Jim is gone now. Just need to get rid of Hermen next.

Fix My Junk sounds like the title of an Elon Musk biopic.

Because Americans were stupid enough to elect Trump into office for a second time, that's why. And now the rest of the world has to suffer as a result.

I for one am thrilled that 18+ games are finally coming to PlayStation.

@AhmadSumadi It looks like Generative AI, thus it looks terrible.

It's a horrible filter that once you recognise, you can never unsee it.

The real news here is that Microsoft still thinks it's worth engaging in moneyhats. Like, why? Xbox is on the cusp of death at this point.

Wise decision. The strength and value of a console brand is more important than the extra bit of revenue gained from porting games to PC. Sony's in a position where it should always strive to be more like Nintendo than Microsoft when it comes to exclusives.

So you buy one of the best remaster/remake studios in the biz, put them to work on a GaaS project no one wants, and then when that falls through you just unceremoniously shutter them?

This is absolutely disgusting. Remind me how Hermen Hulst has a job exactly?

God I hope Lisa Ann voices Rouge the Bat.

Thank you for bringing Rain98 to my attention. Looks like a big vibe.

Still waiting on that demo that us console plebs apparently weren't esteemed enough to get the same day as PC players.

Can't vote for Once Upon a Katamari or Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo.

@Oram77 There doesn't need to be an exchange; Xbox is multiplatform now. PS6 will get both OD and Physint.

Ubisoft finds new ways to be even more soulless than it already was.

It's so nice when there aren't any attention-seeking insiders around to leak these things. Makes for a nice breath of fresh air.

You can't really go wrong at that price can you. That's less than half the cost of a sandwich at Aldi.

Can't wait for the day AI goes the way of NFTs. Hope it's soon.

Just another example of Microsoft doing what they do best - sucking complete and utter ass.

Hyper Light Breaker is the indie equivalent of Concord. A game no one wanted or asked for.

Hyper Light Drifter was brilliant btw. It's due a replay.

Microsoft sucks in so many different ways. This is one of them.

My condolences Fortnite fans.

It was very very mid. Not fantastic, not terrible, just serviceable.

Saros looks fantastic and Deus Ex Remastered was a nice surprise.

87 on MetaCritic so far. This review seems like a bit of an outlier.

Really looking forward to this one. Seems like it'll be very funny based on the trailers so far.

£16 in the UK apparently. If true, that is insanely good value. If Mario Kart World is on one end of the spectrum (GREED!) then Silksong is on the other end.

Shenmue and Shenmue 2 are still two of the greatest video games ever made.

3 was a little crappy, but I for one hold out hope that 4 will eventually release and be an improvement.

Unfortunately, she said it's a first-shooter shooter, so that proves she's nothing but a fake gamer.

The more that time passes on, the more I understand why Konami cut off ties with Kojima.

The Order: 1911

Most positive PlayStation news of the year so far?

Count me among the people who bought the first game, didn't enjoy it and as a result isn't going to buy the sequel.

Soccer? What are you, dirty Yanks or something?!

What a time to be a Silent Hill fan. We were famished for years and now we're eating again. Can't wait for this and Silent Hill f.

Team Asobi could make a killer Jumping Flash! game. Think Doom meets Samurai Pizza Cats.

This is gonna be one of those games that ends on a bit emotional note isn't it. Like The Last Guardian.

I predict the cyborg girl has to sacrifice herself in order for the guy to get back to Earth.
