Oh look, the thing people kept saying would happen, if you accept all digital DRM eco systems, is happening. youtube.com/watch?v=ELmChi…

"Who doesn't have internet?" might quickly change into "Who even wants internet?", if this invasion of our privacy spreads. Age verification data collection will befall PlayStation services later this year. Partly good intentions aside, be very careful how this is implemented.

DRM Plattformen ermöglichen es auch viel einfacher Spiele zu zensieren ohne eine Ausweichmöglichkeit.

Dear Elon Musk you earn enough money by selling my data to shady data brokers. Stop pestering me with subscriptions.

Pragmata PS5 Does it play offline? Yes Does it require a download? No Almost flawless. Only saw minor visual issues and encountered one instance of lip animations without dialogue playing. If you want to see the game in action, check this: youtu.be/kQ1jUJKgXes

Zwei weitere Spiele die man niemals komplett haben kann...

Es gibt keinen Technischen Grund das zu tun. Bücher brauchen nicht plötzlich mehr Leistung um gelesen zu werden. Es ist Amazon das Euch Eure gekauften Produkte wegnimmt, weil es ihnen gerade danach ist. Geplante Obsoleszenz schadet allen.

Imagine making a gazillion of moneys through GTA Online each year, yet being too cheap to do not a NSW2 Edition, not even a GKC, but going Code-in-a-friggin-box for this. (Picture from an early copy of RDR Switch 2 sold on Vinted in England, according to rockstarintel(dot)com)

Nintendo verändert Ihre Spiele um sie an die Filme anzupassen. Da werden ganz böse Überraschungen auf die Fans noch zukommen.

"Ecco the Dolphin: Complete"... no mention of "Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future". Very complete indeed.

The Crew 2 receives Hybrid Mode. Can now be launched offline. #StopKillingGames in effect, ladies and gentlemen. Even before any court rulings or new laws. This shows what YOU all can do, if we stick together. ubisoft.com/de-de/game/the…

People seriously need to stop running defense for corporations who clearly hate them.

Potential major DRM issue rolled out by PlayStation (and Xbox as well, allegedly). All new PSN purchases now have a 30 day validation countdown. Already investigating to find out more details.

It's interesting that these "unintentional" mistakes always somehow result in some of the worst consumer rights violations. An interesting coincidence indeed...

Remember the CBOMB that killed your games on PS3, PS4 and PS5 once the CMOS battery depletes? Sony essentially HAS to fix the current DRM issue as it basically rearmed the CBOMB for new purchases. x.com/desgamesyt/sta…

We should stop assuming this is done out of ignorance. Every single time the game industry introduces the most consumer hostile practices everyone tries giving them the benefit of the doubt. Well it's been 20 years and it hasn't gotten better. Maybe it's done on purpose?

Nope, Gabe Newell was right on this one. Steam is not the answer to digital distribution, not by a long shot.

Woke up to the news of a PlayStation "spokesperson" giving a statement to Gamespot about the new DRM. Doesn't say anything new. Still doesn't comment on the CBOMB that turns your console into an always-online experience for new purchases. At the very least for the initial 14 days
