Lol. I fired up the SW Squadrons game, and the mandatory training missing was so slow and boring. I’ll try it again at some point, but I only had like 90 free minutes that day so I decided to play something that was actually fun. Yeah

I was at Target last week and saw they were selling several games that are now free. Just imagining the dumb-dumbs who actually buy them. Probably relatives trying to buy a nice gift. If these stores had any conscience they would pull them from the shelves. Eh but I guess not everyone has PSN...

There’s still a solid market for physical media because of the ability to share with your friends, as well as the ability to resell

Yeah but I'm talking about free downloads. No need to share those with friends.

Technically, these games aren't "free", but I know what you all mean. ;)

yeah but.. would you buy a game like destruction all-stars, which was released as a psn subscriber freebie? and wouldn't you take it back if your grandma bought it for you from target as a gift?

Majority of the time, I would pay $50 for physical rather than pay $10 for digital. I'm an outlier.

Co-signed. Think about the hours of recreation you get out of any given video game. $50 is peanuts for that. Compare to a movie ticket for example.

If i'm buying at full price yeah it's physical all the way. But if i can get a good PSN discount i'll take the digital. Even though i like the idea of being able to resell a game if i want to, in practice i almost never do.

Some good deals on the PS Store right now. They also announced all PS5 users get Apple TV free for 6 months.
