THE FUSE

Some days I lament having to get up at 8 a.m. to hit the blog mines, but then sometimes major news breaks that early in the morning and I get it. Well, good morning everyone, PlayStation just announced it will stop making discs for games starting in 2028. It’s a huge blow to physical media, but also a predictable one. There have been many, many signs that companies have been trying to get out of the disc-based game space for a while. The fact that the “physical” version of Grand Theft Auto 6, the biggest game of the decade, is just a code in a box was just the latest one.
