Are consoles slowly becoming less central to gaming?
I break down why Microsoft’s device-agnostic strategy makes sense — and why Sony & Nintendo may eventually follow (but much more carefully).

This is the damaged prolonged racism can have on a population psychologically.
The government has refused to do what needs to be done.
.@LBGamestips
Now these jobless S0uth Afr!can !d!ots are going from one shops to the other ORDERING immigrants to pack their goods and leave South Africa 🇿🇦 Meanwhile, their plan is for you to leave your goods and run to your country so that they can loot everything inside like they looted bread on the street few days ago. These pple are nõth!ng but sháme!

@nib95_ @Horror_Hellfire But newer games are tied to needing higher firmwares, you can't just play every game off the shelf. The internet is required to play even some discs.
English
Most Playstation games don't have full game data on the disk either. They have a little bit of data that triggers a game download. You still need internet to download, dipshit.
NIB@nib95_
That Xbox One trauma lol. Amusingly most Xbox physical games require a one time online check-in, many don't have full data on disc and some new releases didn't get physical lol. Conversely the vast majority of PS5's physical games can install and play from disc without internet

@BarackObama Supreme courts job is to uphold the constitution not politics. When trump lost the tariff case you were happy. Amend your constitution and your laws
English
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

@ManaByte Let’s not draw conclusions. But I don’t blame you when Sony has refused to say anything. This is a so poor.
English
@LukeStephens @asha_shar But doesn’t Xbox require a check like steam?
English
@asha_shar you have the opportunity to do something generational here
NikTek@NikTek
Imagine if Asha Sharma made a video like this but playing a game on Xbox, 30 days after you purchase it digitally while remaining offline lmao
English
This recent silence from @PlayStation is very poor. This is not how you address an isssue people have with your process. Lack of competition causes this issue
English
@Burnershiro28 @PlayerEssence Where is the user agreement you are citing?
Don’t know when we started to take AI chat bot so seriously. Let’s wait for clarification
English
@PlayerEssence I think what’s most cunning is the fact that they Sony didn’t officially said anything. They just went ahead and updated their User Agreement. People just happened to find out.
English
30 day online DRM check ins for all digital PlayStation purchases going forward based on different reports.
Sony hasn't made an official announcement yet so we need to wait for that as well.
Culture Crave 🍿@CultureCrave
Any PlayStation game purchased digitally after March's sytem update will reportedly now require an internet connection once every 30 days to validate the license 🎮 If the console stays offline longer than that, the games will not launch until you reconnect (via @MrZackXOfficial)

@AdeyinkaRotimi1 @MiguelGX9 @TRIPSTER0 Not thoughts, no misinformation, the issue is real. We still ought to full confirm for more official means, wether is intentional or not. This doesn't need a TOS update specifiying that, the current TOS are ambiguous enough to Let this happen. I recommend youtu.be/rXszEM9JO00

English
Because it is, it's been a bug since March, just like the ps4 is going to get patched
An Average Gamer - N@AnAverageGamerX
Its just a 'bug' they said.......
English
@ShyVortex Sony has terrible customer support and it shows
English
They won't release games on Steam anymore because they hate other companies giving customers a significantly better experience and support

PS5, PS4 Game Expiry DRM Concerns Escalate as Sony Remains Silent on Issue. pushsquare.com/news/2026/04/p…

Can people stop talking to a chat bot and bring up EULA or TOS
English
@LuisAlbertweske @MiguelGX9 @TRIPSTER0 For them to change to a 30 day check in you need to agree to an agreement. It would be weird and illegal to change that without players agreeing to it. There’s was no mention of that in the last TOS update.
Maybe for the future, so express your thoughts now but not misinform
English
@AdeyinkaRotimi1 @MiguelGX9 @TRIPSTER0 This is not a legal agreement. You could say the same for the bluray drive initial activation. This is actual feedback. But yeah, ideally should say something. Regardless there's no possible way they'll admit this was intentional, so even if they say this is a "bug" I won't trust
English
@LuisAlbertweske @MiguelGX9 @TRIPSTER0 Customer support is not a source of legal agreements. Wait for actual feedback. Especially when this can be AI
English
@33wwyy @TRIPSTER0 You don’t need insults. Where is the legal source. What EULA or licensing agreement is this present. Find it before making conclusions
English
@Khushand @2_Old_4_Gaming The fact that the word MAY is used should tell you that this is a waste of time. This is a legal stuffs. Look through their documents and terms you agreed to. If it’s not there the chat bot is looking online.
English
I didn't want to comment on the 30 day licence expiry on digital PlayStation games until it was confirmed but it seems like it's a real thing and it is rubbish!
Another reason for me to always buy physical when the option is there.
Noticias PlayStation@NotiPlay_
Un usuario contactó con el soporte de PlayStation y le confirmaron que el tema del DRM es intencional, no un error. En resumen: los juegos digitales comprados recientemente requieren que la consola se conecte a Internet al menos una vez al mes.
English
@RealMarcFoxx What’s the question and is this a real person or a chat bot? Where is the document that says this? Wait till actual confirmation
English
@SpawnWaveMedia Why not wait for official feedback. Plus I just read the Don Mattrik press release and no where near the same.
Blocking physical games, trading, 24hour check in for all software.
English
Don Mattrick probably punching a wall somewhere watching the PS5 DRM discussions online right now
English
@BigMeanInternet @kimmaicutler If you don’t want to creators to have power over what they create then simple makes laws to that effect and see how many people Create in your state. Don’t do indirect asset seizure after people have creates value
English
@kimmaicutler Right but it seems like you're assuming the consequences you're describing are obviously undesirable. Taxes can be about more than revenue, they can also be about the balance of power in society, and we don't have to concede this loophole.
English
None of the billionaire tax coverage about Sergey Brin in Bloomberg or the NYTimes reports the most important structural detail of why he opposes it so much more than Jensen. It taxes voting shares as ownership.
It taxes Page and Brin as if they own 50+% or >$2 trillion of Google rather than 3% each. Jensen does not have super voting shares so he is just taxed like his actual ownership of Nvidia.
Imagine if you were taxed like you earned 10 times as much as you actually did last year. @bizcarson @teddyschleifer
English
@Rich_Cooper lol lab diamond is the same thing. Don’t be deceived by branding
English
@Chemosh123 @General_Oluchi I agree but you can’t have a government putting tariffs on imported vehicles and then going to import most of its vehicles regardless of cost.
English
@AdeyinkaRotimi1 @General_Oluchi Innoson is a private company; it has to change its sales strategy. The best the govt can do is a 'buy Nigeria' policy and offer subsidies or increase tariffs on imported vehicles. Innoson needs to overhaul its go-to-market strategy
English
Nigerians would rather buy the lemons rejected abroad, accident vehicles, drowned cars and so forth than buy a brand new Innoson car. It’s a mindset problem.
