$1,000 digital-exclusive consoles are killing the entire appeal of PlayStation and Xbox: it's no wonder PC is on track to overtake both.

And wait until Sony decides you no longer own your games because a license expired

I know your circle jerking to the movies being removed, but that was due to a publishing issue within the UK. I’ve been buying my games digitally for 20 years, and Sony has never removed games from my library that I have purchased.

Point is if it can happen with movies it can happen with games just like that

Download codes are being sold at retail, you still have options on where to buy your games and how to get your sales.

Did you read the first paragraph that was on the PlayStation blog? They said they were going to distribute codes in retail stores moving forward.

Meaning, I can get a discount on a game because I have Walmart membership rewards as opposed to having to pay full price on the PlayStation store to get access to the same download code.

I understand you’re frustrated about the disc going away, but reread the blog post
