sony is fucking up huge


the reason people even use this because games are like $30-40 on sites like that hell they are that price everywhere but ps store will still be charging 79.99
if sony does plan on doing this they better get their shit together for pricing or else they wont be selling games else where for reasonable amounts meaning less people playing on their console


glad i got a pc to game on i sure as fuck wont be overpaying for games on the ps store

I only purchase games through the PSN store. I usually wait for sales. This change in business doesn't really affect me unless it means that Sony is going to increase sales which I doubt. It's almost always a bad move for consumers when businesses limit the avenues consumers can purchase goods.

so i was reading into this apparently its only in physical stores so if u go to an eb games store u cant get a code but u can get a hard copy
apparently u still able to buy codes from their websites

if thats the case its really not that big of a deal if you are in store why not get the hard copy anyways

Man now I'm gonna have to do some Googlin'
