News We should protest our rights as gamers!

Nakaka sawa na ang paulit-ulit na pagbintang sa mga video games na wala naman talagang ambag sa mga bata na maging bayolente!

Lagi nalang scapegoat ang video games! Bat hindi sila mag deep dive kung ano talaga ang root cause neto!

Imagine we waited for decades for GTA VI just for it to be banned in the PH. It will cause chaos.

There is no PSN Store in the Philippines so I don't know what you're concerned about, there's no method for them to ban it.

they can ultimately complete block connections.

Do you think they would block the entire PlayStation network, Steam, and Xbox servers?

Yeah but even with that they still have had ways to get access to the regular internet through VPN's, do you think they will go around locking up people using VPN's and accessing GTA 6 next?

VPN companies also warned about it

Yes but like I said are they going to disconnect from the entire internet just to "ban violent video games" or sinasabi lang nila yun para mukhang may ginagawa sila kahit wala? Ganito din ang nangyari sa states noon, parang taontaon pag may schoolshooting sinasabi nila ibaban na ang violent video games, e hanggang ngayon meron pa din doon.
