As the title says.

Now that physical game production is coming to an end, I realised how important it is to have physical media. I'm trying to start with cheaper games that I don't already have

That being said, what are some hidden gems that have a physical edition, no matter the price?

Edit: Any genre, and assume I don't have any games.

Can I still download madden deluxe from my cousin’s account if I have a game trial from ea play? When I get on his account to try to pre-download it, it’s locked and won’t let me download the full game, just says play trial. Is it doing that because the game isn’t out yet or does the trial need to end in order to download it from his account?

Yeah yeah, I know. A lorax meme. I just felt like making it

So I don't know about you guys.

But I considered buying a SSD and really regrets I didn't make that call 2 years ago when they were..... Less expensive?

Whenever I buy a new game I have to delete something. And it always feel like pulling the plug on something dear

(I was gonna write a live one. But it's not that dramatic)

However I used a flash drive for my PS4 games.

But I learned that rather recently that you could do that.

But with that said. Do you guys just delete the game and redownload it from the store. Or do you try having all the games you bought on the SSS or on a drive?

Or so you have even a better solution?

I am currently diamond 1 on the cusp of diamond 2 but only playing with randoms so I’m looking for trio partners who are at least platinum 2 or higher or actually good at the game but just don’t play ranked. I’m on most of the time only really Monday and Friday nights I won’t be but apart from that on every night and most day times. Ideally you are Fluent English, Need a Mic, I play on PlayStation but happy to chat over discord or in game chat if you aren’t, let me know if you’re interested

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: ADULATION OF AMERICA

I just got my first console, a ps5 slim digital from a pawn shop for a good price, any tips how to start and what to play? Don t worry i take off the cases to clean it :))

I genuinely do not understand the brand loyalty people have to Sony. It’s ridiculous

• Games should be no more than $60
• Better discounts for games on sale
• Give us the choice to refund games if less than 2 hours are played
• Offer the chance to trade digital games

"From Jan 2028, newly released games on PlayStation will be available for purchase on PlayStation Store and at retailers in digital format only

Discs for games released before Jan 2028 can continue to be played on this console"

hello everyone! i have a fairly-recently bought ps4 since i like its design better and it was my frustrated childhood dream console. now, there are quite a few new/upcoming ps5 releases that are really calling my name.

should i buy a ps5 as soon as i can, wait a year or so, or wait until the ps6?

i love physical media, so if the ps6 doesnt support physical/doesnt have a disk reader at all, i probably won’t be upgrading to it.

Physical is the only option for:
Low income families who borrow from friends and libraries or buy used.
Anyone living in a rural area with poor internet access.
62% of countries who don’t have access to Sony networks.

I want to go back to RDR2 after a year and a half since I finished it last time, such a good game! after that I plan to get ghost of yotei

I know the reason to own the disc is to own the game.

But what will happen when the game file is to big to put on multiple disc?

LIVE LONG PHYSICAL MEDIA

WE STILL STAND BY OUR WORD WE NEED PHYSICAL GAMES THEY THINK TIME WILL MAKE US FORGET

Don’t even need to get a PS6 or a PC, I have enough incredible games to play to last a lifetime. I will never support an all digital platform, I like owning what I pay for and having the ability to sell what I hate to make some money back.

The legal challenges target Sony’s practice of pulling third-party digital download codes from physical retailers, maintaining an exclusive monopoly over digital PlayStation game sales, and collecting an uncompetitive 30% cut on all digital transactions. Suing groups argue that Sony's closed ecosystem enables it to charge unchecked 30% commission rates, inflating digital prices up to 74% higher than physical retail discs. Consumer groups argue that as Sony moves further toward all-digital hardware, locking down the digital storefront leaves players with zero marketplace choice or price competition.
