Originally posted by Gin: You heard about console exclusive Then we went to Store front exclusive Now we're in the Country exclusive time. Gaming industry finest. None of this is new at all. Look back to the 80s and 90s, where games get sold only in US, or EU, or JP or they get other versions after a long time or never. Exclusiv stores? yes, but this was normal, because only a few Stores would sell it to you legally. And do you hear... there is still more - like combinded geoblocking by restrict it on a platform that was only sold in one area (like Nintendo do still nowadays) Some of it was a problem of dristibution, markets and so on, but today... sorry we have anything digital, we dont need restriction for languages (srsly Sony?) or countries or even censorship. All this thing had to been abolished tousend years ago - but you know... baseless clamis/fears from companies, CEOs and Marketing-Dumbasses... they may lose 1 penny to a market they dont want to lose but arent able to handle it, so they decide to close it fully.
