I never went anywhere. Problem is, the number of physical only people are growing smaller. Though we will eventually lose, I will continue fighting for physical media. I am hopeful for a physical release and am patiently waiting for it.

@fatual evidence You are absolutely correct. I was lurking during that time and the comments section was exceptionally pro Xbox!

In 2007 I remember having a 360 for a couple of years at that point and wishing Sony would give me a reason purchase a PS3. At that time, third party had better performance on the 360 and PS3 was light on 1st party titles. Not to mention, I was hoping for a price reduction. Finally purchased a PS3 slim in 2009 when it was more affordable and was ...

Count me in as a waiter. This game is probably better suited for the PS5 Pro anyway so it gives me even more incentive to wait. I can be patient.

Please. I have two controllers I swap in and out. My launch controller is drifting slightly, and the newer of the 2 is drifting so badly I need to replace it. Trigger tension is messed up on my launch controller so probably should replace that one also.

Next BG game needs Larian.

For me it is that I am not willing to support practices that will diminish my and many others hobby for the short term benefit I get from buying and playing games that are digital only. Especially when there are more games available than I can play in a lifetime.

I love and collect physical media, I love ownership rights, and most of all I love gaming. I will likely lose this fight because digital only is the most probable future, but it doesn’t mean I will stop fighting fo...

I hope you are right.

I want this game so badly. Was always going to be a day one purchase until I found out I will only be able to purchase a digital code. Consequently, I’m more interested in what the PS5 Pro specs will be because I may be in for a long wait to purchase this game.

The old “just wait” routine. After all these years I do not see how people still trust this brand to deliver.

I agree with this. Unfortunately a digital only future is inevitable, but consumer protections need to be put in place before I can trust it. Currently, the distributor can alter a purchase without your consent or even take it away. Updating a terms of service agreement that locks me out unless I agree is forced consent.

Even my TV that I spent too much money on wants to lock me out of features that were sold to me if I don’t agree to a TOS about every quarter. And it’s all...

Do I have to drink my own urine? No, but it’s sterile and I like the taste.

I have 300 hours in the game, and while I see why it isn’t for everyone, I never played a game with such freedom and attention to detail. The world feels alive in a way I have personally never experienced.

On a side note, my wife has never liked video games, but I got her to try this one. She now has 150+ hours in the game. It took 17 years, but I can now share one of my favorite hobbies with her. Amazing game!

Both are nice, but I have 3 OLED panels in my house so my vote is obvious. The jump to OLED or QLED will be bigger for you than the anticipated jump from PS5 to PS5 Pro. Enjoy!!!

I definitely did this a a kid and thought it was helpful. Everyone did.

However, the longer I had the console I started shifting the cartridge while it was secured in the tray and it seemed to work much better. As a kid, I had no idea why shifting the cartridge worked, I just knew it did and was my go to trick. If shifting didn’t work, it was back to the old trick of blowing the dust out.

@Chris Smith. Generic name, new account, first and only post is a run on sentence that makes little to no sense.

Tell me you’re a bot without telling me your a bot 🤔

@Reaper I was with you up until Chevrolet. We drive Fords in my household. U…S…A…USA, USA, USA.

Agreed. I think the price increase will have the opposite effect and will result in less subs. IMO $22 is not a great value for a service like GamePass. It isn’t like a movie streaming service because movies are considerably shorter. I can’t play enough games in a short amount of time to justify $22. For me, it makes more sense to wait for a sale on a game that I want rather than pay $22 a month to have access to many games I will never even download.

As far as day one cons...

The person Foxtrot originally aimed their comment at admitted to having multiple accounts after being called out. There comments were subsequently marked as spam. I know the way the chat is laid out can sometimes be confusing. Especially when posts get erased, but I can confirm you were not the one being accused of being the troll.

Yes two things can be true at once. Weaker rigs hold back the full potential of “next gen” rigs. I would even argue that consoles hold back what is possible on high end PCs.

The Series S holds back what could be possible on the X because of parity rules. I would argue any 3rd party game or timed console exclusive produced for the S/X holds back what is possible on the PS5. Going a step further, timed PS5 exclusives that are later released on PC will never fully take advant...
