@Mr_B021 that's true I guess, just much prefer physical games because if they wanted to they can and have removed access to digital only games. CDs and Blu Ray/DVD are just like physical games, digital games I'd say are more like Spotify and Netflix due to the fact you can't sell them on or whatever if you decide to stop playing.
@Mr_B021 music and movies are totally different, there is absolutely zero chance they can revoke the use of my physical media movies or music. If I want to listen to Wu Tang: Enter the 36 Chambers I can put it on Spotify which I don't own or I walk over to my CD rack and pop the CD in my CD player and listen. In fact even if I don't have power it's hooked up to a UPS so I can listen for around 2 hours before it becomes unusable at which point I could get my CD Walkman and listen on that. It's this exact scenario that this article is talking about that made me start to get into retro consoles. I lost love with modern games with season passes, pay to win and other micro purchases for maps etc. £60 for a game is enough, then they want £30 for a map pack or whatever ever few months until the next game is out. People need to remember how good a decent story is like CoD modern warfare was years ago, Resident Evil PS1 era, Metal Gear Solid etc. online gaming is great, but I muh prefer a single player, offline story mode which would make this risk null and void
