Amazon has extended its "Prime-Exclusive Items" initiative to block non-Prime members from being able to purchase certain video games.

A schedule for all of the currently announced game conferences in June 2024, including the Summer Game Fest 2024 date and times.
For the first time in a long time I have a hard time feeling excited for these events. Maybe it's because of all these massive lay offs and closures there hasn't exactly been good news since the start of the year.
Maybe come next week I'll get a little more excited but I dunno I just can't get too excited right now
Is it just me or is there little to no buzz or marketing leading up to this compared to previous SGF?
After the way they rudely hurried people off the stage at The Game Awards, I won't bother watching any of the streams for this. I'll just checkout out a few game trailers on Youtube after they're uploaded there.
The VP of Marketing at Boosteroid revealed that the company is in talks with major publishers to secure exclusive games on the service.
So they're adding Skull and Bones to their service? That doesn't seem exciting at all lol.
Anazon can f off rediculess why psy an extra £80 for video games
I don't see this going well for them, as a prime member even this angers me. I used amazon all the time for game purchases of my games, prime has its benefits especially when they offer games cheaper, but that benefit alone is good enough. Now to have games sold by Amazon exclusive to prime members? It's really only hurting them since there's so many other places to buy
Wow. That's the dumbest thing I've read on the internet this month. Somebody really needs to be fired for coming up with an idea that idiotic.
Long time Amazon/Prime customer, but this makes no sense. It will just drive them to another site/store. It also very well could drive them away from Amazon for other products.
Unbelieveable. I literally buy everything on Amazon, but really....they don't think they have competition? Pffff I'll just go to Wal Mart or Ebay or 100 other sites. They are getting really balzy. Wonder what's next?
