Really? I mean come on? Its a bit glitchy, it's been patched so it doesn't crash much anymore; and they're going to keep patching. Offer refunds sure but pulled altogether? I hope it's back there soon and not as a psplus freebie in 6 months time!
If Sony weren't happy with it they should have not accredited it in the first place. "A decision was made" is corporate language for "we were told"
I really feel for the CDPR devs in all this, there appears to be very little appreciation of just how complex it is to create a game. They recieved toxic feedback and threats from the community each time they delayed. Under pressure from investors (including grant funding with a deadline that would have asked for a repayment) and the need to release in time for next gen / Christmas they released a product that wasn't quite ready yet.
Post release the (un)virtuous circle of social media and income driven content has moved like something straight out of cyberpunk to the point where the corporate machine crushes the game......oh sweet irony
I'm a PS4 player, I don't want a refund, I want it patched as the fixes are available and I want the team to be supported to finish the job.
Loving the game, I'll stick with it.
Here, here!I am happy with the game. You guys worked hard under these covid circumstances. The ambition in the game speaks for itself it really has great potential... I play on ps4 pro and yes there are some issues but I think there's just too many whiny people in the world these days. I support you guys and I won't be asking for a refund.

Following our discussion with PlayStation, a decision was made to temporarily suspend digital distribution of Cyberpunk 2077 on PlayStation Store. You can still buy physical versions of the game in brick and mortar stores and online. All purchased digital and physical copies of the game will continue to receive support and updates as we continue to improve your experience.
According to our knowledge, starting today, everyone who is not willing to wait for updates and wants to refund their digital copy of the game, can do so by submitting a request at https://www.playstation.com/cyberpunk-2077-refunds/.
We are working hard to bring Cyberpunk 2077 back to PlayStation Store as soon as possible.
I had a couple of crashes and some funny glitches happening during scripted events on an old PS4 model. I totally expected this because we've never seen any reviews on the old models and we've heard from reviewers to expect glitches on PC. And if they can run into some issues than I expect old consoles to have even more issues.Have any of the people talking about the game's performance on PS4 even played it? My game plays great, and I am not even playing on a Pro, just a standard PS4 Slim. This game is the best RPG I have played since The Witcher 3. Not getting the negative criticism at all.
CDPR, you guys did a great job! Ignore the haters!
I like how they pretend they had a choice in the matter. As if Sony didn't shut them down for their poor performance and they mutually agreed.
As if they didn't realize they shouldn't have put it out in the first place.
For me, it crashes at about the same rate as a fully patched Fallout 4. Which makes this whole spectacle ridiculous to me.I had a couple of crashes and some funny glitches happening during scripted events on an old PS4 model.

For now, it crashes a few times, but I like the game enough to reboot it back up and play. It's not as terrible as some other failure on launch games like Fallout 76, Call of Duty Black Ops, or NoMan'sSky. Those are still some of the worst ones to date.
People keep saying CDPR's mistake was trying to force the game to run on last gen consoles. Nah, I think it's the other way around - they forced the game to be next gen, and that's what caused this mess.
They announced this game before last gen consoles were even released and said it was intended to be released on those consoles. I'm guessing as the years passed, and new tech came out, they wanted Cyberpunk 2077 to utilize all the latest and greatest. They became too focused on trying to impress gamers with how it looked, than the content of it, and it's clear that's where the majority of their focus was - aesthetics.
If they had just stayed within the limits of what they could do with last gen hardware, they still could have released an impressive game - maybe not the most glossy and next gen looking, but certainly technically impressive and innovative. and laid the proper foundation for a better looking sequel or next-gen remastered version. They put the cart before the horse on this one.
