Sony’s No More Discs Debacle Was Inevitable, But The Worst Is Yet To Come

Sony’s No More Discs Debacle Was Inevitable, But The Worst Is Yet To Come https://ift.tt/fTs6SzZ Well, it finally happened. Sony has announced that PlayStation disc production will come to an end by 2028, which subsequently creates the implication that the future PS6 console will be digital-only .  Naturally, a lot of folks are upset by this, and I'm certainly among them. But I can't really say I'm surprised. I'm a PlayStation girl through and through, but years after buying the console at launch, I still only own a few physical PlayStation 5 discs.

And better yet--it turns out that it actually was worth the wait, however hellish the road to this point may have seemed.

It wouldn't be completely accurate to call new Hellraiser a proper reboot--it doesn't attempt to retread any of the ground covered in either the original Clive Barker novella, The Hellbound Heart, or the original movie from 1986. The characters--barring one or two familiar-ish Cenobites--are brand-new, the story is brand-new, and the mythology of the world has been changed to benefit them. It's as much a "reboot" as any of the franchise's other installments (there are 10 of them--11 now, counting this one) that tossed out new characters and ideas without so much as a backwards glance to the story put forth across 1, 2 (and 6, kind of, if you want to get technical).
