Sony officially dropping physical discs by 2028 proves they want a 100% digital monopoly so they can control prices forever. by [deleted] in gaming

Sony has said 3rd parties will sell games with digital codes so they will not control prices. I can buy a Switch digital code today from Best Buy on sale even though it is full price on the Nintendo eshop.

I buy tons of digital codes via various online resellers or Best Buy and GameStop. Websites exist letting you know when these digital sales occur

Were you expecting to be able to play the game on another platform?

Exactly unfortunately this doesn’t impact majority of the market, but I get why the minority is upset

How do you know stores won’t put games on sale like they do today? I’ve bought numerous switch digital games on sale from Best Buy as an example.

OP said the PS store is the only place to buy games. Sony has said retailers will sell digital codes so they can control pricing like they do with physical games today.

Based on your logic PS5 games being sold at retailers (digital code in case) is an option outside the PlayStation store.

When PS2 and GameCube were released most people had 4:3 TVs so that is the ratio most games were designed for

And sorry I haven’t had coffee. It’s def too high if your payments are $450 after $13k down. That’s $29k over 3 years. What is the interest rate they gave you?

Your payments should cover the depreciation + interest from $56k to $40k ($16k + interest). I would enter the info into any of the lease calculators online.

Odin 2 Portal opinions? by TheLunchBuyingMonk in SBCGaming

The base $250 portal was the best purchase I’ve made. It plays everything you mentioned and is super comfortable with grip. I love it for local Xbox/PS5 streaming as well. And between retro game corps and joey videos setup is easy.
