That’s exactly what I’m going to do thank you for the advice should I build my pc or buy a new one?

it depends on your lifestyle basically, if you’re someone that moves around alot then laptop is better, but if you can stay in your home most of the time then just build your pc

if you’re not comfortable with building your own pc and have the budget then just buy one of the pre build one… a prebuild pc will always be more expensive and the spec might not be 100% what you’re looking for

Right. No one, except for you. So again, how do they relate to the current topic? Why even bring them up in first place? If you can't answer that, then please: KEEP THE POLITICS OUT OF THE NON-POLITICAL SECTIONS.

this is why we have a separate politics board, to contain all the crazies there

instead of saying crap like “trump”, “red POS”, “nazi”, “elon musk”, and anything else that doesn’t contribute to the discussion at all, I give real solution to people to just move on to PC, vote with your wallet, and don’t let Sony get away with this.

Digital only future is inevitable, but at least choose a platform that let you keep your game

It's criminal in UK and most of Europe.

Distributing is criminal +(https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2015/664/schedule/4/paragraph/17#schedule-4-paragraph-17-2-a). Downloading is still a civil issue.

The funny thing is that human nature is unpredictable,we love challenging established rules .This sony decision is a blessing in disguise.Most hackers will focus on the ps6,it will be the most hacked console you gonna see.Flow,gezine ,flatz and even ninty hackers will hack the hell out of it.

We're not in some AA circlejerking meeting, "helping" and finding solutions for people, nobody is obligated to do anything. Name calling people directly/indirectly responsible for this is very well within the scope of the thread's topic, no politics is being discussed here.

What is really disturbing is seeing people getting their feelings hurt over name calling someone and/or criticizing a multimillion corporation, worse yet, pulling the "off-topic" card to get people to stop talking about it.

Tell you what, pal. You get out of Level 2 Newcomer Hell, gain some levels, and become well known around these parts (and NOT almost exclusively in the PS5 Exploit Guide discussions), and you can drop that gate down wherever you want. Until then, why should we care who you think should and shouldn't be allowed to engage in these discussions?

And more to the point, part of the politically-charged discussion IS starting to go off-topic, so I'd advise cutting it off sooner rather than later, and getting back to the point.

ah okay, donald trump that red pos nazi and that nazi loving elon musk are the source of everything wrong with this world

okay, you’ve heard what you want, so I’m gonna ask you what’re we supposed to do with this information? How is this information gonna help us avoid Sony’s all digital future?

if you’re not gonna discuss video game then maybe go back to r/politics

“nobody is obligated to do anything” actually I’m just gonna take your advice and put you into my ignore list instead, thanks for the suggestion
