Well, looks like I'm getting a PS5 at release if I can find one. Almost everything there looked good. Spiderman, FF16, Demon's Souls, that Arcane looping game, and RE were standouts.

This would only make sense to me if the console had a robot arm to grab a new disc and insert it itself

I will gladly pay the extra $40 to not have to get up from the couch when switching games

you're acting like you can't buy digital with the disc drive version tho

That's only because of the UK's weird grocery store centralized game marketplace though. They're the same price digital/physical most other places.

What, amazon and walmart, or target games physical versions are always cheaper than digital ones.

You can vault over low walls in OG Demon's Souls.

I don’t remember this. I remember Dark Souls adding more movement options (like I think the sprint then jump).

I just checked and the equivalent spot in the OG tutorial is just a drop down from a ledge. You don’t vault over anything.

It's probably good for people still on 1080p and no PC, but aside from that, it's a hard sell with a real next gen console at $399.

The preorder system being "we don't know when or how you'll be able to pre-order this" is very bizarre.

Demon's Souls looks phenomenal and is exclusive.

Only PC has digital deals good enough to not buy the physical version (or a hypothetical one at least). The price differences and the resell value are too great.

I pre-ordered asscreed valhalla but it looks like it's not out until 31st Dec for PS5, which is a bit wank.

Glad I'll have miles morales and demon souls to play on my PLAYSTATION 5 CONSOLE at launch, though.

Well the disk drive on the PS5 will play the 4k blu ray movies so the 100$ isn't much of a premium considering what a 4k blu ray player still costs.

I've bought both digital and physical games, it just depends on the situation and i've never sold my old games on any console ever.

I'm bummed that Sony is cribbing Nintendo's BC strategy rather than Microsoft's. Though practically I guess it won't mean much for me, Bloodborne and TLG are part of the program and that's pretty much all I wanted. It just sucks that it's a limited selection tied to your subscription, I was really hoping Microsoft would establish a new norm going forward.

This shit's about to go off.
Everything looks nice and all but I’m not buying this at launch. Not enough compelling launch titles, and my PS4 works just fine and has a backlog of games.

You could always climb over low walls in demons souls. That’s something they removed from Dark Souls

it upscales to 4k games and plays 4k media! the 500gb drive is a downer though but maybe games will be smaller since they won't be on a hard drive anymore and won't have to duplicate files?

PSN actually has very good deals these days. Last I saw, all the exclusives were as cheap as $20.

And yeah, as with the PS4, I'm buying all digital. I hate all the boxes. If people want to go physical, hey, that's why they make one with a drive.

Actually the Demon’s Souls trailer also says “not available on other consoles for a limited time” which makes me think its coming to PS4 at some point.

Probably going to wait at least a year before upgrading.

Interesting that Sonys response to Microsofts aggressive pricing of the S/X is just giving away a handful of
games you probably already have.

"The vast majority" of PS4 games are BC, the PS+ stuff is just freebies if you don't own them
