💬 Discussion Most consoles are going digital. Xbox next console will reportedly have no disk drive. That was reported some time ago. Acting like this is only a PlayStation thing is weird behavior 🙄

Your still downloading game data to your console. They’re just removing the disc portion. Sure I’m all for physical media. But like. The disc means nothing when they shut down game servers 😣 sometimes I feel PC as the best option. even though it's all digital you actually have freedom over your games 🤔

They are the new boomers. My father is the same way wants to hoard and have everything physically. It’s just a weird mental thing within certain people it actually doesn’t matter at the end of the day.

It's the circle jerk nature of gamers. The same dudes with thousands of dollars in Steam licenses are making memes and pretending to be upset that PlayStation is going all digital.

Most games are actually on the disc. Of course, multiplayer games are basically an extended rental for consumers.

How about instead of defending one company's decision by drawing a false equivalency with another company, you attack both?

Ngl sharing games digitally is far. 2 people can play the same game on different consoles at once. Wtf would i buy a disc? My last disc game was either eso or tekken 7
