The Hat Chat Podcast #225 - Sony PS6: The Disc Killer We All Saw Coming (PC Gamers Shrug)

Sony just killed physical game discs - and the internet is furious. This week on Hat Chat, we dig into Sony's decision to stop producing disc copies of video games from 2028, and why gamers are losing their minds about it. We break down what this actually means for you: full Sony control over your games, the death of the second-hand market (RIP trade-ins), and the very real fear that game prices are about to spiral with zero competition to keep them in check. We also compare it to Steam, which has been discless for years - and why that same move barely registered for PC gamers. Turns out console players are just catching up to something PC has already made peace with. Then we lighten the mood with some GTA 6 talk - what new features might be coming. And we close things out with the story of Mexican fans yelling obscenities outside Ecuador's team hotel... and why you'd never catch us doing that. Probably.
