The only reason Infinity Train can still be watched is because of dumped DVDs. Vimm’s Lair was created from dumped cartridge ROMs. Ending physical media, on top of DRM and other exclusive bullshit, is detrimental to preservation. This will create a video game dark ages and I am not exaggerating.

Thankfully PS5 will be the last modern console I'll ever get. All these corporations really can't comprehend how much I don't care and how much I can backwards game as much as I can.

The same thing that would stop them from releasing a mandatory update and user license agreement change that would stop your ps5 from playing ps4 discs absolutely nothing. The problem is governments refusal to update media licensing laws not whether your license is on a disc or over the internet.

Friends with the right user licensing agreement you’re forced to accept they can remove access to your physical games just as easily as they can your digital ones The real problem here is governments refusing to update user license laws which were made in the 90s and haven’t been updated in decades

Yeah, this is par for the course of Sony intent on driving it's games division into the dirt. Won't do a Destiny 3, getting rid of our movies we bought, and now we can't even own the games we bought. Then I was going to call and complain, silly me they have no more customer service either.🤮

I feel like this is the beginning of the end in some ways. What hype am I going to have to collect besides filling very expensive hard drives for astronomical console prices? I’m not opening a credit card just to do what I’ve been doing for years. The cost of entry is now untenable, and it’s PS5.
