Gaming is dead to me when something like this happens.

Exactly. Fools and their money will soon part ways. These people who support this stuff are going to regret it when they can no longer own a game and it's all subscription rentals.


On the flipside, maybe a subscription service will actually broaden the market for games, rather than basically the same 12 IP selling over and over again (COD, Madden, GTA, Mario, Pokemon, etc.). 

Netflix is successful even though a lot of people said it would never work without New Release movies (the bread and butter of Blockbuster's rental business). But people liked the convienance of it and gradually started watching different types of movies and especially TV shows that they probably wouldn't have been exposed to otherwise.
