Oh wow, alright. So here’s me diving into this whole hullabaloo about Sony and some developer called Grizzly Games Limited finally getting shown the door. If you’ve been hanging out in the gaming community—or maybe you just stumbled across it while nursing a Sunday morning hangover—you’d know there’s been this constant groan about scam games popping up like, oh I don’t know, some kind of stubborn weed in the PS Store. And let’s be real, everybody was pretty much fed up.
Now, before I wander off into another rabbit hole—which, knowing me, is likely—let’s tackle the meat of this. You know, the juicy bit where Sony decided to wave a not-so-teary goodbye to Grizzly Games and their sneaky business of trying to pass off junk as actual games. Like, they had this one called Forest Ranger Life Simulator which, in the most kind of awkward-yet-amusing way, looked a bit too much like The Last of Us characters threw a forest camping trip. You know? Like, okay, we see what you’re trying to do, but also… we don’t need that.
Anyway, the drama involved this vetting system—or lack thereof—on the PS Store that somehow let these games slip through time and time again. And, no kidding, this isn’t just about one shady developer. Oh no, it’s like opening a can of worms. There are heaps more lurking around, ready to pounce with shiny trophy promises that’re about as filling as an empty sandwich. Which—by the way—is apparently a thing. Who knew?
One of the funny (or not-so-funny) bits is those players who, bless their hearts, fall into this trap often end up without refunds. Talk about adding salt to the wound, right? It’s like buying a super fancy-looking dessert and then biting into it only to find it’s made of cardboard. Yeah, you’re not getting your refund either, pal.
Oh, and I almost forgot—yeah, so this sleuth from PSNProfiles found out that Grizzly Games went poof off the PS Store. Plus, all their so-called “games” disappeared too. So that’s one down, a dozen more to go, maybe? What do they say… one small step for gamers? Or something less dramatic, perhaps.
Alright, let’s pull it together before I drift again. So here’s looking at you, Sony, and crossing fingers, toes, and whatever else I got, hoping they’ve got a plan to tidy up that submission process. Because honestly, one more shovelware infestation and I might just switch to carving horses out of soap bars or something. Wait, where was I? Ah, never mind.
