@sidneyl94828768 @NextGenPlayer Playstation does have their automatic regional pricing. If a third party does not adjust the price (which they can) they get the regional set price that is standard on PS. So it is a bit of both. Playstation standard is higher, publishers don't adjust.

@NextGenPlayer That’s not true, because most games here in Brazil are only more expensive on PSN compared to Xbox, Steam, or Nintendo

Former PlayStation Store SVP says Sony does not set PS Store pricing, individual publishers do, and therefore Sony does not have a monopoly If you’re mad about digital prices, complain to publishers, not Sony. Sony has no say in 3rd-party store prices ▶️ insider-gaming.com/exclusive-inte…

Gamers somehow never learnt that sales can also be applied to licenses and services. Very interesting.

Download the offline installer of any of your games on GOG, save it to a disc and it's yours forever. You don't need a storefront's permission to play what you bought.

@DoesItPlay1 @itssjustjayyy @yamilVII @PlayStation It is still listed as purchase/buy. But with a disclaimer: "A purchase of a digital product grants a license for the product on Steam." So he is technically right. Same would be applicable for Playstation on their store front.

@SrcasticGamer @Sony Yes. Sony Financial Group is a partially spun off group where Sony Group has 20% shares. You can read up on it.

SONY IS GOING FULL WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM! Why did @Sony push the digital conversion to 2028? Well, after more digging, I found this knew information that NO ONE is talking about. I believe this is directly related to their decision to going full digital. Sony Bank is own by @Sony and they are trying to create a digital stablecoin to use in the Playstation economy. This will be the next tool to FORCE you to be a member of their Premium PSPlus. We just saw this practice with Call of Duty 2 and 3. If you were a member, you got the game cheaper. Sony will turn their entertainment division into proverbial phrase "You will own nothing and be happy". In the future you will need to buy into their stablecoin to participate in any of it. Sony has gone full WEF! ca.finance.yahoo.com/video/sony-pus…

@RinoTheBouncer I actually believe this class action lawsuit started oct 2025 and has been ongoing since. So nothing really new

Sony is facing a $457 million lawsuit because of their attempt to cease production of physical games by January 2028🚀 ✅Sony defended their digital pricing by arguing that consumers could simply buy physical discs if they found PlayStation Store prices too high. ✅Because the digital store will soon become the only place to purchase new games, legal experts note that Sony has effectively dismantled its own defense by eliminating that physical alternative. Keep up the pressure! NO DISC 💿 NO BUY Source: @wccftech

@mooreslawisdead Most likely not true. Sony (like other platform holders) give support to launches in different forms. Most is completely free.

I'm begging people to understand that analysis isn't the same as justification. You can discuss why something might be happening, while 100% disagreeing with it yourself. In fact, that's my position in this case (and a lot of cases generally speaking)

@mrpyo1 @shinobi602 They can most likely not force a company to produce goods that are not essential and also on decline. They can however make sure that Playstations digital market place has better digital rights and allows for more competition.

Sure but Sony claiming they’ll sell “download codes at retail” doesn’t fix the problem. Under EU antitrust law they can order Sony to maintain real competition which in that way can actually require them to have physical games. Sony still controls the only real storefront and sets the terms which is exactly the kind of market foreclosure the EU can investigate under competition rules (as far as I understand). So this whole thing still can be looked at, they are not just cleared

@REPLACEDGame I started playing through Game Pass on PC, I'm really enjoying the game but I'm having a problem: whenever I try to close the game, it doesn't close. I have to end the task through the task manager. Is this a known bug or is it just happening here?

@ZhugeEX There is too much emotion tied to everything regarding this decision, that people start misunderstanding and taking everything as an attack against their plight. Everything becomes toxic without a reason.

We're now at the QAnon stage of the backlash where some people believe there is a grand conspiracy of analysts working on behalf of Sony, rather than just like, giving their opinion This community note isn't true, but you can find tweets with 5k+ likes and comments saying it is

Japanese Game Industry analyst @serkantoto says Sony is unlikely to change its mind about killing discs on PlayStation: "I sympathize with physical media fans, but Sony will not reverse this decision. They of course knew what the online reaction would look like, and they now wait for this storm to pass." "Sony has over 120 million active PlayStation users. Around 50 million people subscribe to PlayStation Plus. As a thought experiment, let's say 500,000 cancel in protest, that would be just 1% of that business gone — of course not enough to Sony to start rethinking. Digital is just too lucrative." ign.com/articles/they-…

Sony needs to reverse the physical disc phase out! Give the PS Community what they want. Give option to players!
