Physical console games are quickly becoming a relatively niche market

Was bound to happen. It's more convenient to dl the game rather than go out and buy it. I just don't trust Sony, Microsoft, and especially Nintendo to make retrieving your games years down the line easy to get. But we will see.

[Take It In Blood]

Haven't bought a single physical game for my PS5/Series X


Sh1t, even have Everdrives and HDD/SD card mods for my consoles in my retro corner


It's just easier to have all ur games at ur disposal without having to get up and pop something in

Idk how it is for the 9th gen consoles, but You still gotta install the damn on the disk anyways

I wonder how much of an impact the pandemic has on this…obviously some but that’s a huge increase tho

Same thing.



I've been a physical guy forever but have downloaded most of my games so besides PS5 launch games.

Probably going to download Horizon and KOF when I'm settled.

That's a really misleading graphic since there's so many indie games released nowadays. No major releases are skipping physical; there just happens to be fewer major releases today because development times are so long.

It's very rare that I buy a physical game now

So y’all paying full price for these games?

I’m about to cop NBA 2K22 since it’s $20 at GameStop now. Why the hell would I pay $60 on the PStore just to play it digitally?

A lot of other games are like that too. No way can I justify that steep price difference
