@Mostik Still the Golden age the SNES, PS1 so many different games it was a blast RPG heaven on the PS1 and Super Metriod,Donkey Kong Country and Super Mario alone made the SNES fantastic.

@Voltan Do you feel the PS5 is a massive leap in quality? Its nice the silence and the fast loading but it's not like it is a night and day difference most games don't even run flawless 4K 60FPS.

@Dogbreath Dude are you Sony's deskpuppy. I never did anything like that stop being a troll.

@PizzaX3 A €1000 for the console, €80+ base for games, games can be pulled any time (that is what they did with bought movies), no resale. I buy 30 plus games a year so yes this is a deal breaker.

@Mostik Same here its been a long time ago the SNES era but it is what it is.

He may not care but if it does not sell they won't make money and in the end they are not there for fun i think.

@playstation1995 Word up mate

@DennisReynolds I think a PC is usable in with more things and in the end its cheaper. No online paywall and if you buy smart you can certainly get more bang for buck over a longer period.

@kcarnes9051 Gabe Newell said it himself your renting on Steam so that is a big fat lie. GOG is the DRM only option on PC.

@kmtrain83 A physical player guide looks so much better then a crappy guide. The same goes for a digital soundtrack or even worse a digital artbook..

@Titntin So GOG is the only one that does digital the right way is the message that is how I see it.

@Titntin For me its the solution not going to pay to rent especially at the 80-100 prices. I think even 60 is to high for a rental.

The thing is with the current Sony there is no reason to keep a console around. They are just as expensive as a PC no physical games to resell, bad store, bad digital policies. I think Xbox is going to outlast Playstation at this rate. A more simple PC with a smaller form factor with GOG as DRM free option who still needs Sony. Also your physical collection get obsolete plus a PS5 is terribly repairable with everything soldered on there.

@Dogbreath ok if that your biggest issue release the games DRM free. And access forever to your library streaming is still atleast a decade away of being perfect so many places still have terrible connections. So its just tough luck for them?

@Slayer25c ***** they take all digital sales and leave out the part that you can't get a lot of stuff physically it's a total lie.

@Leetware1 We already pay for the discdrive and what store is going to sell their crap after this move.

@CheesyOatcake I'm really thinking about of i should buy any game Sony releases at this point they came with no plan and dropped it on us out of nowhere. I hope their whole brand will go down at this point. Sony needs to be taken down a few pegs.

@glennthefrog I agree see what they did with other remasters and pulled the original better games.

@Nakatomi_Uk For me its hundreds of games I want to keep access to unless Sony gives me a addon to play my old library there is zero incentive to get a PS6.

And GOG is better for the industry so for me I would buy a controller from PS5 and see what i can make I dont need a massive 4K ultra graphics PC. You make the future digital you give the consumer the option have a backup of their digital purchases in their own terms.

@JJtheTexan There is more then Sony titles and most of their games start looking the same.

@DennisReynolds If you have physical media and the next console wont be able to run it that makes the PlayStation as platform the worst choice to stay.

Expensive, terrible digital customer service, locked in a platform that actively steals your digital purchases why stay without a option to play my backlog.

GOG is the only option now I guess atleast that is DRM free.

@Titntin No you have massive datacenters gobbling up all the energy.

@Vertere the digital sales are lumped together with the stuff you cant buy physical. Now look at the numbers where there are options im certain they will be quite different.

@DennisReynolds With how Sony releases their statements its a no without any kind of statement saying we will doing that its no. Sony isn't really consumer friendly lately.

I know you don't care here because you just lock the socialmedia accounts.

1 Will there be a addon for people to play their physical games on the PS6.

2 Why take away the option completely instead of giving consumers to buy of sites like LRG games who deliver games in a better state then you do already.

3 Why do have the worst of the social media crew who never answers and comes with something that is less of a corporate standard reaction.

4 Why not come with a real statement telling what the plans are and how it's going to be implemented.

5 You underestimate the brand loyal physical collectors. Don't forget people won't spend on your digital content like expansions and addons if they don't own your games. Digital sales are higher on because a lot of stuff is digital only.

6 The Americanization/Westernization of Playstation brand is shocking and i start to wonder if you have the right to call yourself a Japanese company anymore. You don't make special games anymore. There are no original quirky games, things like Astrobot are less and ICO, Shadow of the Colossus, Little Big Planet, Infamous, Legend of Dragoon.

• This is what i posted on their blog in know it wont make a difference but it atleast gave me my own way to vent.

@YeyoFairy That still doesn't change the fact that they can take your games when they want it or use a killswitch like Ubisoft has shown.

@whmchrish Also other massive concerns. What will happen with the physical media of the people? Will it become useless will it get a addon to keep playing them. Its just a corporate remark about what the people "want". I'm certain if you ask most people don't want the options to be stripped away even when they play digital. The pro digital crew always baffles me when they cheer options are being stripped away.

@get2sammyb Sammy why not add the option i will be jumping ship or I wont buy a PS6?

@HonestHick I agree why lock yourself in a system without any positives. Digital is more expensive, no trade ins, less options to choose where to buy its useless. Ill just buy a PS controller and play on PC.

@playstation1995 Same here man time to think what to do im really thinking of jumping ship or going retro.

@AstroFennec Why apologise it's great to show were your believes lie. Staying quiet means accepting it without a pushback.

@Balosi Most of the games I have to buy with Nedgame or order online but this will truly be the time to go retro.

@DennisReynolds Some people do have a backbone and why get a PS6 when you can get most of their games on other platforms. The only way ill ever go digital is with the GOG standard DRM free downloads if I pay to much for air its on the only reasonable way.

@Scoot23 And still i can buy a physical PS1 online now with disc compatibility.

@DennisReynolds Ill buy retro and I wonder what Sony will do for the community that has bought their games physically. Are they just going to say well your games are useless when your PS5 dies which is terrible to repair. I'm really thinking about stopping buying games all together and going for a PC with GOG and I also wonder why the digital crowd hates having the ability to choose what you prefer instead of being locked in a digital environment where Sony their policies are terrible.

@naruball Why not let the market decide? You have platforms like LRG and let the gamers decide what they want instead.

@get2sammyb I don't want to sounds like a guy stuck in the past but lately Sony is on a streak of not caring. They are going to lose big and people say its only 25% but that's a big chunk. Also when people see how useless is is to stay on Playstation when they can get games cheaper on other platforms with a GOG as a digital store with atleast you getting the games digital without DRM why even look back and get a PS6 priced as high as a PC. Or you go on Steam where you also just rent the games but atleast you get massive discounts.

@JJtheTexan there are more games then Sony games. In the end i play things like Elden Ring more and more so I think ill be fine.

@Fishmasterflex96 Gabe no way GOG is the only option now.

@Nakatomi_Uk Really BOF4 I love that game thanks for the tip ill be getting that 100%

@Shwing With GOG you own the games so if its only digital why pay the max and get the worst experience.

@HonestHick I don't need to stop gaming I have a decade of backlog games. Saves me tons of money that's the great win though.

@Zuljaras Same here mate same here I have enough to play untill im dead. 😆

@datamonkey at a 100 million customers that means 25 million less players.

@JJtheTexan Just go to GOG cheaper and you own your downloads.

@Nakatomi_Uk Im going to look at this myself for the future buy a PC it doesn't need to be the fastest but a 1440P option maybe a 4K not running at max will do.

@LiamCroft Why is there no voting option that says I won't be buying their next console?

@freddquadros Just do it illegally if they don't want you to access why pay.

@get2sammyb So force the customer to digital and you close the digital stores what a garbage company this is.

@BAMozzy LRG games baby from 2028 im jumping ship to PC or Nintendo im not sure which one yet.
