Keyser Soze Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I want to get the disc drive version since I prefer disc over digital, the price will determine my decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakie19 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I like special editions of games that come with artworks, figure and other merch. Digital doesn't offer that bar avatars and themes. Also the price difference of the 2 will be offset by the price of games. Digital has always been more expensive on release and. I do buy digital games but only at reasonable prices. The last full price digital i got was RDR2 as i was way too hyped for it. Both designs are great imo and will be interesting to see if Sony use the sales data between the 2 for the PS6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vergil Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Really depends on the price. If its exact same specs and stuff like that but digital version is like 100$ cheaper. Ifo with that. I have like 5 discs on ps4. Rest are digital. I collect some rare limited that gets disc release but those i don't open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IesuHado Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Easy... with disc I still enjoy opening my game box like a kid 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnizelPS Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Disc, no matter the price difference. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) Digital only. 99% of my games now are digital and not having to have a cluster of games lying around is a huge relief for me. Edit: Actually scratch that. If PS5 can play PS4 discs, then I'd buy the disc version because PS4 discs will actually be cheaper as time goes on. Can rent games and return them. Didn't really think about that. Edited June 11, 2020 by Sword 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepEyes7 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I would like to buy the PS5 digital since I mostly buy digital lately, but if it has backwards compatibiity with PS4 and most of my games are retail I would need to buy the disc version.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdogg_gamer_ Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 1 hour ago, woggly4 said: Probably disc, depends on the price. But the fact, that there is a digital only version is kind of a statement about not bringing PS1-PS3 compatibility, isn't it? Or will the disc version be sold as the "Blu-ray and backwards compatibility"-PS5? Doubt it. Or Sony could make the PS Store a one stop shop with PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, and PS5 games. So it doesnt completely rule it out. But it isnt likely for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helyx Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 The only way I'd go digital only is if there was a way to resell my digital purchases through the PS5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SystmOveRide Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Definitely disc version, I want to still be able to use my PS4 game collection so, plus I like to have the ability to trade fully completed games in towards other things as well. Though will be interested to see what Sony does about digital-only consoles and possibly being able to trade the digital keys back to the store etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabio-piesse Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 (edited) Take a look at the prices of the digital games for ps3 on the psstore, then go to search the disk version on ebay. When Sony abandon the old console, they stop any promotion or discount on sales. All ps3 games are in full price. The same will happen to ps4 digital games. Luckily ps3 and ps4 have the blu ray reader. Disk version or nothing for me. Edited June 12, 2020 by fabio-piesse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevlarPrime Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I'm going to say disc for now even though I'm currently have a some games digitally on the PS4. I like to have my options open, though for some people that won't be the case due to their internet connection from their ISPs and location. Having a blue-ray reader especially is an added bonus. Also, games from disk down the road tend to be cheaper than digital. Perhaps Sony make it more enticing by having better sales, but I'm pessimistic on that front.

Pumpkin Head Cthulhu Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 disc all the way, though i might not get a PS5 or not for a while anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can make another account, buy the game, play it with your account and then try to sell the account of the game... I don't know if that isn't legit but I don't feel like breaking something legal besides the greed of the companies Edited June 11, 2020 by DeepEyes7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh...no, man. I mean a trade-in feature supported locally within the console by Sony.

Dry_Plumbus Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I have refused to buy a 4k bluray player for years, but I have amassed a small collection of 4k blurays, so def looking forward to the disk version (also digital only is just not something I would willingly sign up for). Doubtful i'll get a launch unit however. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden_Jace Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I'm leaning towards with disc, but it also depends on the cost difference between the 2 systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarakai1989 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Disc version without a question of doubt. I like to physically own my games. Digital tends to be more expensive. At least with the disc version I get the choice of both 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
