Yeah, that's probably how it'll happen with consoles too. Apple wanted $99 for their optical drive but Sony can easily undercut that. The PS5 will come out in a $399 version with an UltraHD or whatever drive and a $349 version without. Or they'll both be $399 and you can choose between an optical drive and a larger HD.

This would make the most sense. I don't think discs are going anywhere anytime soon, but it'd also be silly to not include the option to skip the optical drive for people that don't want it. I bet they will just do another system with the drive though.

They wont make optical drives a choice because then the game grandma buys you at walmart might be worthless and that will piss everyone off. They could include a code in every box in case you dont have the disc drive but then they need to find a way to invalidate either the code or the disc depending on which you install first and thats a whole nother problem

15 hours or so seems to be about right for Beyond Two Souls as long as you’re not rushing through it.

It’s a shame the 20% code won’t work on Detroit preorders but oh well.

Mass Effect Andromeda, the game with the really bad demo, is now €8 so for literally the price of a McDonald’s Big Mac meal I have decided, against my best judgment and contrary to the opinion I JUST stated about not buying digital games due to trash, to purchase it.

Regarding Andromeda’s acting animations:

I always suspected reasons why some video games had better cinematic dialogue scenes than others, but this video showed me a lot more was going on than I could have guessed.

Also I guess I should pick up Witcher 3 while I’m getting on my PS4 catch up tour

Man, I sure was pissed when things first changed the Majima after things were really starting to heat up with Kiryu and then I hated Majima at first (mostly cause drat his into sequence was looooong I wanted to gently caress around) and now I'm on this escort mission after escaping a chiropractor and just stopped to say you all were right and Majima has totally grown on me and I can't wait to see where this is going after that ridiculous identity reveal. Kiryu can fuckin wait, this finally turned the hell up and I am 100% in right now. I still feel like I'm no where I'm the game tho. Yak 0 rules.

Does the US store ever get like this? I can't remember.



No purchase option but also no preorder option. Sometimes it's like that for part of launch day. Why have huge ads all over the rest of the store for this game only to take them to a page that has no way to buy it?

edit: the PS store website has got their poo poo together though. Why is that anyway?

Yeah totally. The campaign is a ton of fun. I thought I bought it for MP and realized I don't have the time or energy for a BF game right now, so I was really pleasently surprised that the campaign made the purchase worth it. Probably my second favorite shooter campaign of the last few years next to Titanfall 2.
