A few years ago people rightfully shit on MS for trying to do a digital-only console. I hope people are going to hold other companies' feet to the fire for pulling the same shit.
Eli Rivera
Microsoft wasn't going to give you a choice though, in the end they did release a digital only bone too and nobody threw a fit since gamepass is a steal.
Christopher Jones
You and I both know that the digital only will outsell the regular PS5
Brody Fisher
The difference is that Microsoft would have ONLY provided a digital version while Sony at least provides the choice between physical and digital.
Brody Stewart
Blu-Ray is a digital format you imbecile, both models, with or without optical drive are digital only! You won’t use analog formats with the PS5!
Jose Thomas
MS went full retard and wanted to push only digital as an option. you don't force a brutal market transition when your products sucks. you have to slowly boil the market for that to happen.
the same happened when bill gates tried to launch an 3 thousand dollars windows xp tablet in the 2000s years before the iphone
Robert Taylor
a couple of years ago, internet speeds were also shit.
Anthony Walker
lol, rip second hand game market
Connor Robinson
>This is probably going to be the last generation of physical media
Colton Hall
>500 for regular
Thats very good.
Adrian Wood
It is though, normies are into Fortnite, FIFA and movie games. Price is all that matters to them. They’ll all buy the digital version.
Nathan Miller
Not on this board. This gay board only sides with Sony.
Anthony Evans
>€100 for a disc drive
Leo Perry
>tfw you lived long enough to see FUCKING GAMESTOP die for being such a shitty company
feels good
Aaron Evans
What does "digital" mean in this context?
Samuel Reyes
Internet speeds got better, but file sizes also increased
Bentley Watson
>8
>few
Jaxson Watson
And the damage control begins.
Samuel Gray
So it'll probably be ~$550 for burgers.
Luke Morgan
yeah these random retailer placeholder prices are definately the real deal
there's two versions, one that has a disc drive and one without
Joshua Jones
i actually have a cuck friend who's excited about digital only because he says he buys all his games digital anyway. he's also a flaming liberal, so i guess no concept of ownership makes sense.
Joshua Cooper
>400 euro for a console that's on par with a GTX 2070x which is at least 550 euro
How does Sony do it
Ian Ortiz
and what's the storage of the digital? $399 is an OK price and storage is all thay matters now
Jack James
google the price of 4K UHD bluray drives
of course the difference will be at least 100 bucks or it's nonsensical to even make two different variants
Nicholas Collins
I'm not gonna buy games on a fucking CD ever again, so they better make some nice cartridges like Nintendo if they want me to buy physical.
Gavin Parker
1 TB SSD. You can fit in another compatible SSD to increase space
Colton Phillips
Yeah but the PSN prices for example, are fucking insanely high and they have now the monopoly of sorts for delivering the content. I'd go digital only if I had a choice or something.
And the next issue: next generation vidya is going to cost even more than what we have now.
This is so fucked up. I want to go back to xb360 times, I used to buy handful of used vidya and play them etc... Simpler times.
Josiah Hill
Thats reasonable. I wish the regular was cheaper but this doesn't pain me as much
Jose Bell
Are you sure USA will still be around in December?
Isaac Johnson
Sony gives the choice of either digital or disc drive to appear like the good guys, and normies will eat it up because they only got outraged about digital only with the xbone because other people got outraged, and then next gen everything will be digital because then they will have statistics to back it up.
Majority of people will alwyas choose convenience first without thinking about the long term
Daniel Morgan
why in the goddamn fuck would a bluray reader in 2020 be worth $100 if it can't read music CD's or barely any multimedia?
Brandon Richardson
>500€ for a PS5
>nintendo swtich is 400€
WHAT THE FUCK HOW CAN SNOY BE SO CHEAP
Levi Cook
I wouldn't mind the same price if the digital comes with a retarded amount of storage space
Jaxson Hughes
I think if the price leak is real, it's part of their strategy to keep the digital only version much cheaper because in the end it will guarantee lot more profits to Sony because the users will need to buy the shit from PSN Store.
Eli Moore
>clueless boomers pick up digital version of PS5 for their child cuz it's 100 bucks cheaper and they don't understand the difference
>pick up a couple of games at the same time
>bring it back home
>kid can't play it cuz there's no disc tray
this is going to happen billions of times, mark my words
Ethan Jones
Switch is a meme console. Sorry.
Jeremiah Torres
The Xbone didn't give you a choice. The PS5 does.
