It's true tho. In 30 years you'll be able to either emulate it or run a backup natively on hacked hardware. There is literally no reason to buy physical anymore.

I don't understand how having all digital games doesn't scare those people. I understand some but come on, not your entire library. Doesn't even feel like you actually own anything.

This is why physical is better. I uninstalled and started playing the on-disk version.

I feel sorry for any players starting FFXIV without the Stormblood disc. Hours of downloading.

>>377857849

But the only place that has a Discount is Amazon and it wont ship here on time (and it has tax)

Literally all you have to do is crack the game and you're good. You can even burn to DVD/Bluray if you want. I tend to crack every game I buy for long term storage, achievements are for suckers.

In my country it's impossible to find PC games on physical so I went full digital. Still, I pirate all the games I purchase (and those I don't, of course) and have them safe on external HDDs.

You're right. Digital isn't ownership and the whole "Valve / EA / CDProjeckt will never take away your games", "if Valve / EA / CDProjeckt go under they'll release all of the games without DRM" is pure and absolute horseshit. Dead companies don't care.

Buying from Amazon can be a pain in the ass, but I've dealt with Best Buy and Walmart, and Amazon is much better at returning games that were damaged in shipping. That extra tax is worth it, vs buying from a secondary seller that ships a Collector's Edition of a game in a thin yellow envelope.

>>377859535
I've given up on physical at least for PC. Hard to find now, they've essentially phased it out.

>>377860009
Still better than what digitalfags are getting. They pay for games and can never, ever get any of that money back.

"Hey look at my bloodborne, I really hope /v/ is impressed, I hope I fit in"

>falling for the proprietary hardware meme

>>377860267
Well, I am impressed with the game and quite glad with the non-stop shilling. You should give it a try.

>>377860369
They own something physical they can resell or use again in ten years.

>>377860369
The only real downside is a need for a Day One Patch. My copy of Nier: Automata has a glitch that sends the game into an infinite blackscreen at the beginning of 9S's playthrough. Without the patch, the physical version is almost worthless.

>>377860251

Buy a Playstation Vita right now

>>377859229
Nioh.

I'll always buy physical but there's one problem with physical games.
The technology isn't improving. Bluray discs are more than 10 year old technology and the sole reason that they are kept around is because the industry refuses to take it to the next level. It's cost-effective, but in the process of being cost-effective they're fucking the users in the long run.
As many physicalfags understand now, lots of games don't actually run off of the disc anymore. The disc installs the game onto your machine's hard drive and from that point the disc becomes useless (until your hard drive is full, you delete things, install more things. delete more things, cycle repeats).
It's stupid and one of the major reasons that games are starting to get close to 100GB these days is because they need to be uncompressed to avoid the abhorrent load times that would result from your hard drive constantly compressing and decompressing data.
Here's the solution: Returning to cartridges. Cartridges have instant load times. High capacity cartridges are being made, and Nintendo, of all people, is taking the first step. Their Switch cartridges are only up to 32GB (I believe) at the moment but the technology is there to make cartridges with more than 100 or even 200GB of storage.
It will be more expensive at first, but as demand increases production will increase and eventually they'll just be the same as your common bluray disc.

Me writing all of this won't change anything, but I hope that eventually companies and consumers will drive the industry to go forward again rather than allowing it to stagnate like it has this past gen.

What? No they don't. They're just another form of physical media storage like discs or anything else. They have a max read and write speed like anything else and it's actually slower than most hard drives

>>377861818
Cartridges have way more potential for near-instant than discs or hard drives do though. And I hope you're not comparing old carts from the 90s to modern-day hard drives, because that's just unfair.

Bough Elder scrolls Anthology for 40$ bucks. All games and dlcs, and MAPS and other stuff. Nice box, all new.

And also had Morrowind to Skyrim steam keys, so also got Special Edition for free.

I like the way you organize, similar to me

You have no idea how glad I am I no longer have to use my optical drive.

I'd be even happier if games were shipped on USB sticks, but I'll take digital as a second best. Fucks sake, even MS now ships windows on an USB stick. This isn't hard and they're not THAT expensive.

Besides I dont have many PS4 games, my PS3 collection is much larger.

Question for fellow ps4 physical-fags:
Is dead rising 1 HD kind of rare? My local guy has it for cheap but i keep kicking it down the list because its an old game and im bound to get frustrated with the AI, specially when aiming for the plat.
I did enjoy 2 and OTR, although OTR kind of pissed me off because of how much of a rehash it was.

Also now that hitman is dead, should i get that steelbook edition? Is there even a "standard" edition?

Not even remotely. It can easily be found for $15 or less.

Im thinking about just biting the bullet and buying all the CoD games for the ps3 to have a complete collection, all of them are pretty cheap, except for black ops 3 for some fucking reason.

Also did they add weird srpg shit to BLOPS?

The Duke port isn't awful but it's not really worth getting if you have literally any other version.

I'm too lazy to take pictures of my collection. But do any of you know any cheap-ish PS2 games that are worth buying? I just got a PS2 again after not having one for about 8 years or so and it seems the prices on games went up a lot as is kind of expected.

It was $20 this past week at GameStop, and it's $22 at Walmart right now. Not sure how much cheaper it'll get, and I don't think it's worth waiting instead of getting it now.

How active are Titanfall 2 and Rainbow Six Siege on PS4? They strike me as games that would be more popular on PC but there's no way my shitty laptop can run them.

Has anyone played diablo?
Im thinking about getting diablo 3 for the ps3.
The only isometric dungeon crawler i ever played was dungeon siege 3 and it was alright but kind of boring, but diablo is supposedly the king right?
Also is the reaper of souls edition much better? Regular ver is significantly cheaper...

Hello,

What do you recommend for me?


I am a person who only and only plays Video Games Rated E For Everyone in the ESRB.


And I'm looking for tips, aids, and maybe Rated Games recommendations for the ESRB

You're a good little sheep aren't you?

Campaign is good and Multiplayer is the best shooter that came out recently unless you're some kind of slow paced guy.

Lots of digital games that I get on flash sales or PSN+ free rentals.

Only digital game I paid full price was UMvC3

Digital just a meme, though.

Kinda chilled off from buying ps4 shit. I've been playing ps2 and ps3 games recently.

TF2 on PS4 ranges from 5k-10k depending on day and time, you will find a match for sure. According to the titanfall general on /vg/ pc has lower players but the community on /vg/ is mostly pc players.

It's literally not. I've had two PS3 disc drives fail and the super slim I currently have has sounded like it's dying since I bought it. Which is apparently how it's supposed to sound. Also have a Wii that stopped reading dual layer discs years ago because Nintendo knowingly shipped launch consoles with faulty disc drives. Meanwhile I've had only one hard drive fail ever and that wasn't even on a console.

this is why we need cartridges

It plays well. I got bored once my friends stopped playing, but otherwise it's a good port.
