I just didn’t think it would happen this soon.
I hate to be the one to tell you this but…
That was 13 years ago. That announcement is almost high school aged.

Remember when XB1 was going to be digital-only and Sony roasted it so badly Microsoft had to walk it back?
Sad thing is, I always figured this was going to be inevitable. I just didn't think it would happen this soon.

And 13 years before that announcement was the start of the PS2 era.

Microsoft has the chance to do the funniest thing.
They won’t, of course. They’d rather shoot themselves in the foot than do something smart.

The next Xbox is a PC, it’s already 99% digital only.
PlayStation players are already basically digital only, have been for years.
The people complaining are the vocal extreme minority.

Hilariously still up on their YT, and rightfully getting roasted in the comments

Remember that while it was digital only, it had all the benefits of physical. It had digital re-selling and trading. It was groundbreaking and pro-consumer, yet luddites and Sony fanboys, along with the Sony favouring video game “journalists”, all piled on them because of stupidity and ignorance.
This is what they get. Enjoy it.

That is why you need a strong competition. Unfortunately Sony doesn’t have one, so they can do whatever they want.
