Are you arguing that mobile devices are closer to game consoles than personal computers? Because I really don't think they are.
Also, why even defend the right of megacorps to lock users in their walled garden? What could society or even you possibly win through this?
I am certainly not opposed to gaming companies opening their SDKs and consoles to hobbyists.
- ryandrake 2y agoI think I didn't communicate well: I am all for forcing game consoles to also open up. If one can argue against walled gardens for mobile devices (and I would), the same argument works for game consoles, too. They're both, at their cores, general purpose computers that just have DRM and restrictive licensing slathered all over them.
