SG 258 | DRM DE PLAYSTATION + STEAM CONTROLER + ACTUALIDAD
Episode notes
The episode opens with impressions of Aphelion, a single-player science-fiction adventure combining story, puzzles, stealth, jumping and climbing. The team then reviews progress in and the major update for Crimson Desert, before discussing several titles, including Vampire Crawlers and the different Diablo entries, with particular attention to their portable versions on Switch.
Current affairs focus on the Steam Controller: its date, price, battery life, haptic controls, trackpad, compatibility and repairability. They also cover Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and Ubisoft’s remake strategy, the announcement of Splatoon Raiders, Xbox’s rebranding, Saros and expectations for Steam Deck 2. They also report on a rumour about a handheld associated with PlayStation 6.
The final stretch is devoted to the alleged 30-day DRM for certain PlayStation digital games, its possible effects on access and preservation, and Sony’s lack of an official explanation. The conversation includes the Take-Two denial cited about an extraordinary base price for GTA VI and a comparison with other DRM models.
