This is awesome news. I really dont want to fund though until I see a physical ps4 release even if sony will release one. I guess I'm being selfish but I don't want a digital copy and I don't want a pc physical.

I wouldn't call it selfish, you want a physical copy, that's not really unexpected this day and age.  Digital still has issues.
