They are changing the rules on the PS5 console. Sony announced that they will stop making optical disks even though customers still buy them and it is not losing them money.
One of the main benefits of a game console is the used games market. It allows people to borrow games and sell them because it belongs to them.
The fact that Sony had to announce it means that they are literally changing the rules. Especially since they are keeping very quiet about it.
What Rules? People keep saying that, but there are no rules.
Every console is different, few are backward compatible. This is just another change for a new model. You can argue you don’t like not having physical discs so don’t buy it. But there are no “rules”.
Edit: I have said this before, I am FAR more angry about Sony promising linux twice then taking it away on the same console through an update. Now THAT is breaking a promise. They could have dropped linux support next console, no big deal, but this was a bait and switch. Nobody seemed to learn a thing from that and kept buying their crap. Now they are whining about physical discs. Its sony, they suck, get over it and don’t buy their products. It is that easy.
