It was just an example. If they only allow publishers to publish racing games from now on or whatever, you have a choice to run other software on your hardware. A console is locked down, it's a brick if the manufacturer want it to be.
Thank you for pointing it out.
PC is not cheaper because there are no physical games, lol. How would less options and less competition lower prices? PC is cheaper because nobody has a monopoly on digital games so stores need to run sales to attract customers.
Exactly. That's why I personally don't mind buying digital games on PC, because the PC is an open platform. If Valve decides to drop the ball and sell every game for double the price or something, I can still get and copy games via other means on my Steam Deck. If Sony decides they double the price, you're out of luck.
Once you take physical sales out of the equation digital prices will drop.
You don't really believe that, do you? Why would a for-profit company would ever lower the prices if it wasn't absolutely necessary?
for a little extra money
Won't be "little" for long.
This can't be fucking real.
I noticed this too in the last few days and weeks. Fucking russian cunts.
Wow, I was one of them. Was a bit meh in the middle, but I'm glad I've watched it through.
Looks great!
I'd love to sleep til 7.30.
I just got this game today and buildt my first small village.
I bought resident evil code in the box PC because it was cheaper that directly on steam.
