New law could change how you buy games on Steam
A new law passed in California changes how you purchase games on digital storefronts such as Steam. Storefronts will no longer be able to use terms such as “buy” or “purchase” when advertising a game that always requires an online connection. 🖋️

God of War Ragnarok mod removes PSN requirement from PC version
Sony’s latest PC port of God of War Ragnarok requires a PSN account to play. The game is an entirely single-player game, which has frustrated some players. Nexusmod user iArtorias has released a mod that removes the requirement entirely. The mod has been downloaded thousands of times at the time of writing. 🖋️

Buying digital games means you’re just purchasing a license, California will force storefronts to admit
California will soon require storefronts to make clear that purchasing digital content, including games, does not mean you actually own it. Terms such as “buy” and “purchase” will be banned from the sale process unless sufficient caveats are added. New legislation, AB 2426, is designed to make consumers more aware of the sometimes-temporary nature of digital ownership. 🖋️

PS5 New UI Update Also Brought Ads You Can’t Turn Off and Unwanted Forced News Feed to Select Titles
Based on our testing, it indeed does happen. It seems players will see will be different based on each game. So it can be an ad for one game, and maybe a news bit for another one. While this is a first-party feature from the company, it is still an ad. Update (Sept.30): Sony has announced that this was apparently a “bug” and has since been resolved. A tech error with the Official News feature on the PS5 console has since been resolved. There have been no changes to the way game news is displayed on PS5. 🖊️

Four new Amiga products for September 2024
Since the June Amiga Expo, I have been developing some new Amiga related products. I challenged myself to launch four of these throughout September. I figured I should talk about what I have launched so far.ZonKEY is a replacement keyboard controller for the Amiga 500, as the custom IC in theirs had died. Hafnium is a 72pin SIMM that will diagnose which RAM traces have been battery damaged. 🖋️
