I think we all have that one or two games we desperately want to replay from the previous generation….that looks terrible on 4k displays or is stuck at 30 fps. Some that come to mind for me are: Batman arkham knight, mad max, uncharted: the nathan drake collection.

Why not just let people make a community patch since the publisher is never going to update these game again in their current form.

Sandboxing is a thing that works, if either console maker is worried about security. From my understanding, these games run in a sort of semi-VM environment anyway on both platforms.

Just disable online play, trophy’s, etc when these mods/patches are enabled for that specific app.

Given the whole RAM and components shortage crisis, do you think this is something all of them are thinking about?

And as a way to mitigate backlash, what if they let you use your current gen controller instead?

Or do you think the backlash would be so severe that it’s not really worth it?

There no future where physical media is making a comeback, vinyl and cd even with a resurgence, don’t come close to how the overwhelming majority of people listen to music.

Instead of fighting a losing battle, people should fight for better rights for digital media. Stuff like:

1. The ability to sell/trade/giveaway/passdown your digital licenses to who you choose. Even the right to delete your digital license permanently if you choose to do so.

2. A digital license giving access to media, on all platforms it is available on

3. Retaining access to your media even when it has been delisted from sale

4. The right to make physical backups of your your media

If you truly stand by your principles, make sure you deny yourself this generational experience.

If you do buy, nobody will know……but you will know, your words stand for nothing.
