For me its not disk swapping that is the issue, its disks in general. For someone that lives in a trendy but small condo in Downtown Toronto, and wants to put together a seamles entertainment unit which is used for multiple purposes including gaming, there really is no room for piles of disks on the wall and on the ground while I am gaming. Options are good and hopefully PS4 has an option to install a game and verify DRM online as I really don't plan to continue gaming using disks as the medium. To me disks are a distribution device and can pretty much go in the garbage once a game is installed on your profile and saved in the cloud... |
You know, you could always buy the games digitally. I'm sure next gen will have a huge digital push with games being available day one to download. So just buy digital if discs aren't your thing.
I for one love my discs as collectors items. I store them and maybe even lend and borrow with friends from time to time. While I do agree that games will probably require some form of installation (if not complete installation) for better load times, I hope it's like now where having the disc in the tray is the method of verification rather some silly always online DRM.
