Peter Moore: skyrocketing console prices threaten the future of dedicated hardware “I think that’s probably what the hardware manufacturers are noodling right now is, the cost of making this stuff is now getting ridiculous. We can’t compete. We can’t even get supply for what we need because the chip manufacturers are fueling artificial intelligence demand. And they’re looking at [consumers] and probably say, 'We can’t make enough profit on you.'” “Every generation, the last two or three generations, we’ve all said, ‘Is this the last console generation? Do we need a dedicated piece of hardware between us, the television and our controller?’ And the answer so far has always been, yes, we do. But I’ve always said since I got in the industry in my Sega days, eventually you’ll just have a chip in the TV that will allow you to Netflix-style look at all the games that are available right now and how many people are playing and you’ll jump in. And do you need something between that experience on your screen and your controller? The lag and latency will be close to zero. And so off you go.” “I think this is a real test for the validity of a video game console. Either technology will solve the problem or the gamer will solve the problem by saying, ‘I can’t afford 800 bucks for a console. I will play on my PC. Maybe figure out ways of streaming the game to my 4K TV. If I don’t like to use a keyboard and a mouse, then I can get a controller that will work and off I go.’ And the PC becomes your console. I think that is the challenge. Gamers will always find ways to play games.” via: Kotaku kotaku.com/games-industry…
















I’ve long accepted a digital future, but I didn’t think Sony would end disc production for PS5 so soon. I love physical games but I’m not “no disc no buy”. That being said, if I’m going to build a digital library it’s absolutely NOT going to be on PlayStation lmao.

Sony has not responded in over two weeks since they announced they will be ending physical PlayStation discs. However, they are still getting hammered everyday with every post. Do you think they will end up reversing their decision and walk it back?
