However, one owner of the popular PS4 may now have a hard time playing some of the system’s physical games after a hazardous revelation.
In a post on Reddit, user Frietmetstoofvlees has shared an unlucky accident that saw their physical gaming collection almost entirely melted. Frietmetstoofvlees stated that their cleaning lady moved the bundle of games while tidying up and accidentally placed them against the side of a gas stove. The Belgian gamer said that they hadn’t noticed the games had been moved until it was too late, and by then, the 18 games, which included theimmersive open-world titleThe Witcher 3, had heated up and fused together.
PlayStation Fan Has 18 Physical Games Melted in Heartbreaking Accident
Many PlayStation fans asked in the comment section whether the discs were still playable, seeing as the games were still in their covers. Frietmetstoofvlees replied to say that they haven’t had a chance yet to check if they still worked, but given that so much heat had seeped through the entirety of the collection, the discs could have taken some damage, too. If the games end up being completely unusable, at least Frietmetstoofvlees has a choice of picking up some othergreat PlayStation exclusive titlesand, this time, maybe keeping them in a safer place.
