If Sony make a retailer friendly console with the ps5 and Microsoft keeps going digital they'll really push the playstation in their stores. 

Numbers and trends aren’t favoriting physical anymore.  Digital gains grow every year.  Sony risks looking old fashioned if they stress the physical medium. 

Sony have a great digital and physical offering. They sell a shit ton digitally. But they don't alienate stores like ms are now trying to do. This is nothing new. Microsoft tried to kill used game sales.. Sony saved the retailers bacon.

Physical copies arent going away.

Used games arent going away.

The ability to outright own the game digitally isnt going away.

So how is this another edition of always online drm?

 

It's not, that's just FUD. Strange, I don't recall this type of FUD here concerning PS Now or PS+ games you get with the service.

So they're a gaming specialty store and maybe don't know Xbone plays physical games. Then they'd obviously have much larger issues than Game Pass and will be Blockbuster'd soon enough.

It was obviously a joke.
