@Seramurai_ @realpissedchris Resident Evil remakes are my go to examples for what a remake should be. I know some people get annoyed at things that are cut, but they streamline the games masterfully and make them line up so much better.

@Seramurai_ @realpissedchris It is a shame, I know collecting is a big part of the hobby for some and I hope those folks still find a way to enjoy what they love.

@Seramurai_ @realpissedchris Yeah, and many of these sales were likely planned WAY in advance. I would like to hope that some people who are seeing the real world explanations are learning a little bit about business and stocks.

@realpissedchris @Seramurai_ Also the economics of it all of course, companies like Sony would love to not have a retailer take a cut of profits anymore, and yes that is greedy. Unfortunately that's also their fiduciary duty to investors. Not heralding it as an ultra moral system, it's reality though.

@Puertorock77_ Xbox couldn't even afford to stay in the physical space if they wanted to.

@Puertorock77_ Xbox has no future in physical so they are providing and off-ramp which is good. I was just in Wal-Mart and there were six physical xbox games on the shelves compared to an aisle each for PS and Nintendo.

@SrcasticGamer @a_real_cop @katakana_kurisu Keep in mind that Sony has 150 million PlayStation customers and despite some people being very very upset right now, ideally they want to keep most of them. If they make too many moves people are unhappy with the market will have its say.

@SrcasticGamer @a_real_cop @katakana_kurisu That’s speculation and if they do that I’ll join you in being pissed. That’s really jumping the gun as their stable coin hasn’t even crossed all regulatory hurdles and hasn’t launched.

@SrcasticGamer @a_real_cop @katakana_kurisu I also doubt this will be anything other than optional in addition to other standard payment methods. Because the bulk of their 150 million users are not likely to be knowledgeable about crypto.

@SrcasticGamer @a_real_cop @katakana_kurisu Ok. From an end user perspective this isn't much different from buying a Sony gift card to add credits to an account to buy games. Honestly not a big impact to gamers unless they also plan on using it for investment for some reason.

@SrcasticGamer @a_real_cop @katakana_kurisu Yeah game pass has a whole host of issues, a huge one being cannibalizing the sales of newly released titles Sony hopes to increase profits on. I do not think a GTA only subscription is in the cards though.

@vworldwide72 @SkyriderXiii @GamingCentral26 It's fine if people are passionate about physical games. I understand some of the points. Some are just losing touch with the real world. Looking at minute stock price shifts and everyday stock trading as sign of corporate collapse, it's wild.

@SrcasticGamer @a_real_cop @katakana_kurisu Sure but paying subscriptions to play online is already normalized on console so I don't really think anyone will find that shocking.

@ZikadaPrime Often these large stock sales are planned and reported months in advance. Sony is a massive corporation that is more than Playstation. I get why it looks sus but people are reading too much into it.

@ZikadaPrime They were awarded their annual stock as part of their compensation and sold off to cover the taxes. This is all normal and the stock remains above pre-announcement prices and within the average price over the past while.
