What's the point of buying playstation games then?
 
It was inevitable, I suppose. If it brings prices down I will consider returning to the PlayStation, otherwise I stopped with the 3.

If anything I think prices will go up since Playstation won't have physical retailers to compete with anymore, Sony will control everything on PS6.

Exactly. And enjoy never having games go down in price any more as they age and prices being commanded completely by Sony and/or the publishers/devs of games.
 
Slowly, but surely, they intend to take away from the consumers the ownership of the purchased products.
If in the future we wish to keep our (only-digital) games, we will have to fight for it now.

PlayStation will lose half their fans after this decision.
Sadly, they probably won't. :-(
This market is an oligopoly. Nintendo and Microsoft will do the same thing.

Microsoft will announce the same thing shortly, no doubt. All of their Series X first-party games have been disc keys. Oddly enough, Indiana Jones and now Oblivion Remastered on Switch 2 are actual physical releases. I don't understand why they release incomplete physical versions on Xbox and Playstation despite discs being cheaper while releasing complete versions on Switch 2's more costly physical format. It makes no sense to me.

Anyways, the majority of Switch 2 third-party games are Game-Key Cards and it's the reason I tend to only buy exclusives on Switch 2. Pokopia is the only exclusive that's a Game-Key Card, I think.
 
Just a couple days after deleting movies from costumes libraries, how nice.

The future is retro and the backlog in endless.
