Ain't nobody got time for that! Internet speeds will only increase until then, so digital is the way to go. Of course you can't ignore sales at local stores, so I think we will be buying codes in nice packages next gen, just like we already do on PC. You punch that code from the store into the PS Store and download your game and that's that. That people won't be able to sell used games is just a nice little bonus for Sony. They want things to be that way. They want it so bad, you wouldn't believe it, but the time wasn't ready back when the PS4 launched. But I think we will be there soon. People also used to refuse steam and now they all love it and don't buy games if they aren't on Steam and shit. It will come to our beloved consoles, just wait. I know people don't want to hear it, but the days of physical media for games are numbered. Oh, and let's also hope that the PS5 comes with an SSD right out of the box. HDDs don't have a place for games in 2020. They're just too friggin' slow. Ok, you can hate me now. =P |
I sure hope the next Xbox will have an optical drive cause how else would you be able to get your physical BC games to work?
You'd need to buy everything anew.
