Looks like 2028 will be the end for me. Switch has fake game carts. MS has ads everywhere. Now PS will have no discs. It appears from 2028 on, I’ll only be able to play something I can buy on GOG, or be confident I can crack.
Time to sunset console gaming. So very sad. Thank you to everybody who buys digital. This is your fault.

Ah, there it is.
No, 2028 isn't your "last year of gaming".
I agree this is a gross move by Sony but your hyperbole irritates me.
Thankfully old consoles and emulators exist. The console modding community will grow to keep old hardware alive and thriving. XBC is a thing. New things will sprout up. A better title would be "I'm not getting a PS6".
You'll still be gaming. I will too.

It will be the exception. Only what comes to Mac.

At the age of 44, I've started playing D&D with my buddies I game with. We all meet once a month and it's been a blast.
I also have an OG Xbox with some soft mods full of classic games. My two boys get excited when I bust it out. All the coin op games from 80s-90s, hit the white button to add a quarter, unlimited lives...it's awesome.
Now I'm looking forward to the capability to play my games anywhere I go, without a console. You can already do that with the right Xbox Gamepass subscription.
It can all co-exist man. Take a chill pill and game with us you grumpy fart. :P

I can't be part of the problem, sorry. But I'll join your D&D group.
I saw the news and immediately came here to see this

Are you telling me the games you play on your mac you buy on a disc?
And I say this as someone who has been buying physical switch games (never Game Key cards), xbox, and ps5 games.
