[QUOTE="Captain_N, post: 8568175, member: 249631"] Unfortunately i dont think there will be physical releases. Look at the modern desktop cases. They dont even contain an optical drive. There is not even space for one in some cases. Its becoming more common. Most laptops dont have an optical drive. I to miss the boxes. I always thought the box was to large for what they contained. These companies cant wait till everything is digital. They can then control every aspect of it. Even more so with streaming content. They can keep selling you the same content over and over again since you never actully own anything. There are some Physical PC games in target. I see the boxes. I dont know if they contain discs tho. Might be download codes. igit I love having physical media. when everything is digital/streaming i aint buying shit. gonna be 100% piracy. It will be the only way to own the download with out any DRM. The current young generation mostly prefers digital. They dont want to own anything. most of them dont even keep devices past 4 years. they get a new one and trade/sell/toss out the old model. the companies love this. they love when you get a new phone every 6 months.

only ps5 updated to latest firmware can go on psn, jailbroken ones just don't use psn or they risk getting flagged or banned, altho spouting profanity in online play alredy does that

What's the point of video games? Kids playing video games won't be as hardened as the previous ones getting shoved down a hillside.
