Claims Sony Has Disabled YouTube Comments Over Physical Disc Backlash Are Not True

Push Square · 2 months ago

Reports that Sony disabled YouTube comments to suppress criticism of its physical-disc strategy are incorrect, according to Push Square. Recent PlayStation trailers still allow comments, meaning the claim has added confusion to an already active backlash over the company’s approach to physical games.

The only recent video identified with comments disabled, Instant Sports 2, is marked “For Kids”, which triggers YouTube’s automatic comment restrictions; an earlier Sesame Street trailer had the same setting before the dispute. Frustrated fans have nevertheless been posting disc-related comments under game trailers, affecting developers such as Teeto, while the article argues Sony should still address the wider concern.

  • Sony has not broadly disabled YouTube comments.
  • Kids-labelled videos lose comments automatically.
  • Physical-disc criticism continues under PlayStation trailers.
