How many people gonna get the PS5 Digital Edition if it's $100 cheaper?

[daze23]

a Blu Ray drive don't cost $100, so Sony taking a loss if they price the Digital Edition $100 cheaper (on top of whatever loss they may already be taking). but they can make it up since people won't be able to rent, or borrow, (edit: or used) digital games. $100 cheaper would still be a bold move to push people towards going all digital

through the years there's been a lot of opposition to digital games here on The Coli. "you don't own the games", "what if they remove a game", etc. as an all digital PC Gamer, a lot of the doom and gloom is funny to me, because I haven't had a real problem with going all digital for 10+ years

honestly IMO that asymmetrical bubble-butt PS5 with the optical drive looks worse

so what are Coli brehs planning on getting? and would it being a less than $100 difference influence your decision?

i have to see their line up.
at this point, like right now, theres no incentive for me to go digital only with ps5. ima have to get the blu ray version to be future safe

now if they do something like gamepass ultimate i might start juelzing

I’m prepared to accept disc less only for ps6, but for ps5 I need the physicals.

I’m going digital because I like the fact multiple games can be running at the same time. So even if they the same price I’m going digital

Physical cuz I got physical PS4 games, used games and borrowing games not possible on digital edition. On PC we have multiple options on where to get a game.

I’ve had my PS4 since launch. When you think of something having a 7-8 year life $100 more really ain’t that bad of an investment. As the console life progresses that SSD ain’t gonna hold up downloading games. $100 for a Blu-ray drive or $200 or more for their SSD add on(s)

Digital for me

Haven’t been disc based since 360

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

I've been digital since the end of the ps3/360 gen

So it was always the one I was gonna get

I hope people are prepared for the eventual fight over the fact that you don’t/won’t own “digital” music and other forms of media compared to physical.

Been prepared for that for like 12 years now

You have, but a lot of people haven’t. Imagine their outrage when at anytime a company can and will be able to restrict access to something that they purchased digitally.

All digital is amazing

Disk drive.

I like freedom to buy games where I want. That is what you are paying for, not just the physical drive itself.

Bobby Digital for me
