no, playstation and rockstar will not destroy the gaming industry. I don’t agree with their tactics but lot of people will still play other games. Look at the chart below.
the suckers will pay for gta6 multiplayer. watch.
Have played GTA 5 when it was released. That was 13 years ago. Bought and played the PS5 when it was released. That was 6 years ago.
In the mean time I was just crying and doing nothing, desperately waiting for GTA 6 and PS 6 to be released. /s
Damn, just thinking how many hours I have invested in free games like Path of Exiles or indie games like Factorio is just insane.
Fuck Sony and Rockstar. Investor driven asshats.
“console gaming industry” you surely meant to say.
As we all know, the games industry consists of 3 to 6 companies who spend absolute fortunes making mid tier sequels or soulless buzzword agglomerations.
Sony can eat a dick since the rootkit fiasco and GTA6 is going to suck since none of the OG devs work at Rockstar anymore. Yet I’m spending more money on Steam than ever. Gaming isn’t going anywhere.
I just moved all my gaming from Xbox to steam. Since most of my gaming is PC these days and I just switched to Linux, steam is the clear choice.
OOTL, I don’t have PlayStation and have had zero interest in the GTA franchise …what happened?
PlayStation has announced that they will stop producing physical releases, soon, and I believe they’ve said the PS6 will have no disc drive at all.
No idea how Rockstar fits in.
I think it’s: Rockstar has confirmed there is no planned physical copy of gta6.
No idea how Rockstar fits in.
The announcement came shortly after Rockstar announced they won’t be making physical copies. It was either pre-planned, or rockstar inspired Sony.
Or the last manufacturer of optical media stopped?
Soo, how many of them are still around?
I thought it was just 2 or 3 still active.
They literally just sent you the list. I count at least 27.
Lot’s of defunct, sold to <market leader> with 3 steps, citation needed, or with sometimes a footnote (if at all) to a website that looks 2000s. Also,
This article needs to be updated
Sony DADC in Germany is the last Sony manufacturer, and it’s being transitioned towards lens manufacturing.
Pre-planned. Sony doesn’t make this sort of decision on a whim. They announced a staged exit of optical media in 2024, and closed their BR recorder lines in February.
Next year, Sony will exit home entertainment, handing its TV and media player business to TCL. This would have left Sony Interactive as the last subsidiary still pursuing optical hardware.
my bet is that this is referencing the tens of Rockstar workers who were fired when about to unionise. happened a few months ago
No they’re referencing rock star announcing gta6 as digital only with no physical release.
Hahaha no, that would require solidarity.
This is for purely selfish reasons.
Thank you
You must seriously live under a rock to be a gamer and not at least catch a little wind of it during the whole week.
No offense, just kind of surprised.Maybe they were on a nice long hiking trip. Or maybe they were just playing the games.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Eh, I just saw some thing today about it after I posted. I’m also in the middle of my busy season and have other interests as well.
No problem :)

Valve: another thing we did first and won’t get the credit for fml
Sega: Excuse me?
Main difference is you often have a choice on PC to use another store. Companies that have earned trust reduces impact through consumer friendly policies. Companies like Sony and Nintendo have not shown goodwill, and have been actively hostile.
And i just was getting into gta5
roblox doesn’t care
I will just wait for the physical release in dec and if most people did this it would send a massive message.
In a way I’m okay with it just because Valve (what it has become) as a whole needs a serious kick in the teeth.
