Aren't like the old days To each their own, but I prefer hard copies. Maybe it's related to being a classic gamer and my nostalgia kicking in. Or maybe it's just convenient in my eyes, because the first 3 PlayStation's could all play PS1 games. Without the disc there, you were screwed. Either way, it's my preference. But I will say, that having your games digital and not having to get up to change the disc if you want to play something different is definitely convenient as hell.

In fact, I prefer console that runs both games. That's what I've been saying all along in reference to the whole PS5 and Xbox Series X/S debate. They can all do digital. That's no question. But I constantly recommend getting the disc capable version, because that way you're not excluding yourself from anything. There could (and most likely will) be games that are only released in physical form, and it may be something that a gamer desperately wants. But since they decided to buy the digital system and forego the disc capability, they're screwed without having to buy a second system. So for a PS5, I'm happy to wait until one is available and it's not from a scalper or the extortionate online prices. Also at the moment, I'm happy with my PS4 games. I know the PS5 has reverse capability with PS4, but I'm happy with what I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Older generation consoles I get used unless a new one has a good sell. And my version of ps3 isn't ps2 compatible so I can't buy digital. For ps4 I always buy new. I prefer hard disc and my favorite games I will only shop for hard disc. Others I don't mind buying digital. I don't think it's wise to always buy digital cause what if a satellite gets melted by aliens and no more internet. At least you got the discs you can always download. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you got the discs you can always download. There are some games that for special features you can only get them through physical copies. For example with RDR2, if you want the special or ultimate edition with the code that gives you all the free stuff and extra sidequests, you can only get that with a physical copy of the game. With the exception of PC. Reality vs Adventure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself, I used to buy used mostly due to the price, but occasionally I'd buy something new - if it was something I really liked especially. Price isn't really a big deal for me. I can easily afford $30 to $60 games with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I can't afford such amount of $30 - $60 at ease for video games. PS3 games don't cost me much, due to the transfer of video games from laptop to PS3, just a digital version this days. I spend between $2-$4 for them at the moment, after routing it.

Head_Hunter Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 At the juncture, I see the physical version of PS5 more preferably, since you can still play both physical and digital version games. The Blackangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaramaki Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 If all you can think off that you don't have to get up for changing a game then i don't know, may aswell start wearing a diaper so you don't have to get up to go to the toilet anymore. Not going to be involved into the same discussion again but not a fan of digital fan myself, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 The both option is better off, and with the information I heard, it means the physical version offers digital version games on PS5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egghead Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 These days I am playing online games. I have to download and install the game on my device. For paid game, I will have to purchase game pass and for free game I can start playing immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
