Just a reminder that it was Sony's removal of the ability to install Linux on the PS3 (an advertised feature) that eventually led to the 2011 PlayStation Network hack that cost them hundreds of millions of dollars. Anti-consumer actions ultimately have severe consequences. #FuckSony #NoDiscNoBuy #NotBuyingPS6 #BoycottSony #BoycottPlaystation

@_Firehawke_ @Sony @Sony @PlayStation

Did you remove your payment information from your PS account yet?

@RandolphBronson @PlayStationEU No, it's what you type when you don't press the n button in far enough when typing "friend" 😀

@BeerAid @PlayStationEU "Should I share my game with a fried like this?" Is this slang for sharing a game with a friend who is fried from drugs?

Grab a friend this weekend and jump into these co-op adventures.

@PlayStationDE Just for reference

@PlayStationEU Happy to pick it up on disc. These types of games do well in terms of physical sales.

@GamingCentral26 No

🚨 GAMERS, BE HONEST… Would you still buy a PlayStation if physical games completely disappeared? 👀 YES or NO? 🎮👇 #PlayStation #Gaming

EU consumer rights can protect Americans and EU #gamers everywhere. We need to report #Sony and kick butt!! We are scaring Sony because they are lying to people, trying to strike false hope into gamers everywhere. Don't fall for their stupidity, trickery, and desperation.

@pushsquare Maybe Sony should pay attention #NoDiscNoBuy

@RinoTheBouncer It's worth noting that Sony are also running a $3 billion share buyback program at present as well, and the share price is still falling

REPORT: Not only Sony CEO Hiroki Totoki sold his stocks at Sony, but multiple execs as well🚀 The downfall must be close🤣 Keep up the pressure NO DISC 💿 NO BUY

@PlayStation Going to buy a physical copy shortly, as I'm happy to buy physical media.

@PlayStation Might do that later, but at the minute I'm watching this wonderful piece of investigative journalism from @NBCNews: x.com/NBCNews/status…

Grab a friend this weekend and jump into these co-op adventures.

@RyHerbs @NBCNews Not true my friend, at least on PlayStation. I do believe what you're saying is more accurate with certain XBox physical releases, to be fair.

@NBCNews Not to defend Sony here- but the truth is that games went all digital a long time ago. A lot of times the game on the disc is incomplete and still requires you to download stuff, or sometimes it contains basically nothing at all (as is now the case with Nintendo key cards).

Movies still come on Blu-ray, music is still pressed on vinyl and books still fill store shelves. But as Sony moves to phase out physical PlayStation releases, many gamers are asking why video games should be the first major entertainment medium to go all digital. nbcnews.com/tech/video-gam…

@kitsuneredFES It also indirectly led to the 2011 PSN Hack, which left PlayStation offline for three and a half weeks. Anti-consumer policies can trigger severe backlashes.

I think the funniest part about this is that Sony removed Other OS from PS3 to avoid the possibility of the console getting jailbroken. This decision then proceeded to start the mass effort to jailbreak the PS3

Big company responds correctly the rightful negative backlash. @Sony @PlayStation - your turn? Common sense or what?

@NBCNews Thank you NBC News for properly investigating this consumer matter

@SpiderManMovie Wish Sony showed as much love to other products of theirs #NoDiscNoBuy
