My morning paper just dropped.
Sony is way too greedy to reverse their decision.
That Sony backtrack thing is cope until we hear something real, not whispers
Sony chose /not/ to tread lightly, so now maybe regulators will get involved. Good. Because we need legislation to end the license loophole and protect consumer rights for digital goods.
Sony is not reversing their decision or even thinking about reversing their decision. It was just some idiots tweet that gained traction. Edit: it’s hilarious how people think I’m somehow a bot working for Sony because I told you guys the truth about a debunked rumor. Yall are just as stupid as the people who made this story up to begin with.
Someone said the leaked Iron Man game looks like Super Man 64 and now I can't unsee it
Sony wasn't even at gamescom. Source of the rumor is just a meme tier "insider" on a podcast. Then it was being circulated to make it seem like Xbox's disc to digital program put them on notice even though Asha said herself the same week that end-user cost is at odds with the prospect of Helix having a disc drive. Just typical internet short bus behavior.
3:52 “Sony PayStation” “Greed Has No Limits” “Own Nothing & Accept it!” ‼️Stand for Physical games & Digital Rights Ownership‼️
900$ for an upscaling machine lol
It took 2 months, and we already have a headline that says "Sony is backtracking on digital plans?"
Sony executives need fired and company needs to be moved back to Japan.
"Temu Iron Man footage" is brutal XD
So folks are in the denial stage. Got it.
My local GameStop has a tiny shelf of Xbox games it’s pretty sad
The irony of this being up and literally 2 mins after Sony announce 2 Playstation State of Plays back to back
IF Sony backtracked, it may be too late. Xbox backtracked on almost every announcement they made on the Xbox one but it was too late. The image was impacted and too many questions were still out there.
Scalpers are at it again.
It's sad how the journalistic standards in the games industry have somehow gone backwards. Now rumors in some podcast are enough make headlines. But gotta clickbait for those physical media crowd views ig
TBH Sony might not back down. You still got idiots buying ps5 just for 1 game lol. Those ppl buying the GTA 6 will definitely buy the ps6 just to get 60fps on gta.
I think that big company that could stop releasing games on Playstation may actually be CD Projekt Red, and that would make sense since the own GOG and also are against this philosophy. Imagine no TW4 and Cyberpunk 2 on Playstation…
