good to see those bicuspids back in effect. The Free Realms idea he spoke about is freaking awesome. Sony is really, really trying to make this the do-it-all-in-one Swiss Army knife of consoles. Amazing.

"...we're opening them up to that possibility by letting them play for free. You're going to see that first with FreeRealms, and I'm not going to commit to it yet but we're leaning towards going that direction with the Agency as well."

Name someone that isn't trying to look us these days maybe cdpr.

Take two, ubi and yes even PlayStation are pushing us to own nothing and be happy with our live service ad injected games on a sub so they can raise prices at will and take access away when they see fit.
