I’m saying the only ones left are the super durable ones. All the weak/failed ones are gone. There were plenty of these cables that fell apart that we don’t remember that aren’t around today because they went in the trash. I remember several such cables in my own house growing up.

Gaming@lemmy.zip•AMD's handsome FSR 4 upscaler is coming to handheld PCs this year, though Steam Deck support could take longerEnglish
2·30 days agoNobody cares. Give me native resolution and more power, that’s all I need. So tired of frame gen and upscaling.
There’s a theory about general anasthesia similar to that. Probably false but fun to think about.

Games@sh.itjust.works•Physical disc production ending in January 2028 for new games releasing on PlayStation consolesEnglish
31·4 months agoNo I’m definitely thinking console gamers. When buying new, most console gamers just download. I imagine Sony is basing this decision on purchase numbers of new games physical vs digital, and not paying any mind at all to the secondhand market. Customers of the secondhand market are not their customers in this perspective.
Again, not saying I agree with this, but they can certainly use new game purchase numbers as a justification here, even if it cuts out a portion of gamers, because that portion doesn’t account for most of their game revenue.

81·4 months agoThey aren’t wrong though. Gamers at large just prefer downloading games. The vocal minority likes physical games, including me. But the average person who wants to play the latest popular title doesn’t put that much thought into it. “Why buy a game when I have to download patches and content anyway? I don’t want all those boxes I’ll never use cluttering up my living room.”
I think there is merit in producing physical games even without mass demand, and I’m upset this is happening. But they’re not wrong in their claims.






Well, the good ones were haha. All of them should have been, but there were some bargain bin ones out there that failed if you looked at them wrong.
