How do physicalfags cope with the fact that their gazillion dollar collections will turn literally worthless in the next 10 years or so? And that's not even taking into account all the shit that could happen way before that. All the possible accidents that could strike before you know it. Your game could fall into the ground, and in the split of a second immediately lose its entire value. With digital media, you simply have to make a couple of backups for just shit and boom, it will never leave you until the end of time
How do you justify owning physical games when digital is just far more convenient and also lasts forever?
>10 years cope digital fag just keep it in the case instead of leaving it outside or in a car.
Alexander Davis
Just take care of shit and it'll last a long time, I've got CDs from the 80s and PS1 discs that still play well
Jonathan Thomas
>collecting physical disc games
i only collect carts
Juan Miller

How does it feel to know that Sony/Steam/Microsoft/etc. can legally ban your account at any time and keep you from accessing the games you paid money for?
Carter Bailey
or better yet take any legal right to your games away because they think you should pay for streaming
Joseph Edwards
I have saturn discs older than the average age of the people on this board that still play fine even with my dumb kid scratches
Jaxon Gonzalez
aren't those 100% guaranteed to die at one point or another no matter how well you keep them?
something about internal batteries, it's been a while since I read about it

Everything dies you dumb cunt, why participate in any hobby or keep any momentos when it's all gonna wither away some day
Joseph Powell
nope that's just saves but that don't matter because you can always play on a everdrive instead or just play a game in one sitting
Eli Sanders
modern physical games aren't safe from this, just so you know
also I love how you faggots always bring thai shit up when it's like the rarest, most extreme thing that only happens once in a blue moon
>BUT MUH SCOTT PILGRIM lol, that was like a decade ago
Carson Hall
We dont need to cope, we have gazillion dollar collections. Having every single Sega Saturn game emulated in a folder on a desktop will never be as cool as proudly displaying your library in irl.
Ian Peterson
Sony has been paying "influencers" to post this shit all over the internet. You'll be seeing far more of these "lol why aren't you digital only" threads as we get closer to the ps5.
Jackson Russell
Disc rot is a meme unless there was a manufacturing defect
I don't need to show off worthless vidya shit to anyone. I emulate my vidya, I have fun and move on. Cope collectorfags, no one gives a fuck about your childish hobby.
The rare admirable bait. Youre going to jostle a lot of dry pussies with that one. See you on eBay, I'm gonna put up all the .hack games on the low soon
Jace Cooper
Hows Gundam Breaker 3? Does it have non-Gunpla modes?
Xavier Lewis
And all the transformers games released in the past decade. Theres more, you're just retarded.
Christopher Wood
>2020 >Zig Forumstards still thinking disc aren’t digital Is this the zoomer level?
Brayden Johnson
I know 2 people IRL who it has happened to, actually. One guy lost ~700$ because he t-bagged someone in CoD. The other guy call someone a nigger and lost over a thousand dollars worth of games.
Should the guy who called someone a nigger maybe be banned from online for a certain amount of time? maybe. but over a thousand dollars in games for one word. Last time I asked him, he switched to PC and pirates everything.
It is a real thing. It does happen. It is not a small chance.
Also how are you going to share a game with a friend or sell a used game? Good luck doing this with a digital game.
fpbp Same. If you're decent at soldering, you can replace the battery EZPZ >NieR:Automata and Yakuza 0 Based.
Christopher Ross
It's pretty funny considering collectorfags don't actually play most of their shit. It's all for the novelty.
I can imagine it so vividly. One of you faggots bored out of your mind, and then looking for something to play in your collection, years after you bought it. And then, you realize you have been sitting on landfill all along.
Only if you suck at preventing oxidation. I keep all my old games in additional outer cases. As long as they outlive me, that's all that matters to me, personally.
Chase Sanders

Kayden Perez
nothing lasts forever, not even you
Jason Hall
It's dumb, but I'll believe it.
Henry Murphy
>not storing every game you've played through as pristine memories in your head you can relive any time you want
...fuck, I just now realised all my pc games are useless until I get a drive to actually read them again. You win this time digital-only fag.
Hunter Myers
>Your body is already losing the ability to produce new cells and is simply copying the old ones to maintain your body until the copies of the copies are so distorted with age it's unsustainable LOL DUDE DISC ROT
