    Download your pirated copies now! I can totally see this being implemented in older games via updates.

      Genuine question: obviously there is always gonna be somebody who disagrees with scummy practices and leaves but is there any evidence that Sony is actively losing customers from all the bullshit?

    I’ve hated Microsoft since the late 90s. I refused to ever own an XBox. My friends rolled their eyes, but I get semi-regular reminders that validate my feelings.

    I’ve been a console guy my whole life, but I’m starting to realize that PC is, indeed, the master race.

    Ah, yes, of course; let’s screw with the player’s flow by taking them completely out of the game, just so they can continue playing the game!

    How could this possibly go wrong?

    Outside is too scary, books to boring, guitar too hard. I guess i have no choice.

      C-suite has never really understood the artform. They only know how to follow ‘trends’ and listen to the yes-men who can’t understand why nobody want’s to watch their adverts.

    I was playing an Xbox game you can only get by downloading from the store. They must have been testing out this freeze function because the game had to buffer so many times while I was playing that I will probably never play that game again.

    It’s my favorites series as well but I guess I’m not playing any new Skate games anymore. I didn’t have that problem with all the Skate games that came with a disk.

      I have a lot of complaints about skate, but buffering isn’t one of them. Have tried on xbox and steam

    They patented so we can’t get games with mechanics like this for two decades, right? They did this to protect us, right? Right? …
