To add to this, I also think that the cost of console games is a little higher digitally compared to digital purchases on steam, so the option to buy 2nd hand games or cheap physical copies (something I do all the time with my Ps5) is more valued compared to PC, where the sales are alot better in my opinion. At least with the series S there is game pass which is value for money.

Mission accomplished.

I think a part of it is that they won’t be able to play old games they have on discs on the consoles, and another is that, for the PlayStation, at least, you can play blu-ray movies on it, too, with the disc slots.

Maintain value, don’t risk the server simply going down and losing the game and a little bit of tradition.

Personally I like having physical so I can look at my games when I go to pick one to play. I also played pc heavily for about a decade too, but it was during late 90's to early 2000's which also had physical games. I just like having something you can hold or look at. I also find it easier to keep track of what games I have to play in my collection vs a list of games on some software. It's why I still buy physical games primarily even now.

Reply to Will video game consoles in the future just be in the form of a controller that will use a small video game cartridge and will automatically sync to your television? by [deleted]
Going back to the good ole' days of plug-n-play games I see. But I think it will depend, I could def see Xbox doing something super minimal like that, but Nintendo, probably not. I don't think there is any one 'future' of gaming because people will like different experiences.

- I like the idea of owning a game, not just having a license that can be revoked at any time. That concept is getting more elusive, but for example when you don't have internet or there's a server issue you can't play your digital Xbox titles.
- The experience is different. I have had Steam for a decade and have dozens of titles, mostly bought through a Steam sale or a Humble bundle, but there are so many I can't actually play them all. Every physical game I buy, I will play for at least a few hours.
EDIT: Also, second-hand. I buy about half of my games used. I can also borrow a copy from a friend.

I’m on starlink now out in the country, so it’s not as much of an issue but when I have internet issues, my console is a brick without internet.

The fact you state you're 32 and yet still finished your post with "bro" and an emoji, shows you really haven't re-evaluated properly.
Just reading it made me cringe!

Can you send a link to see what you write about in detail - I bought my ps3 slim but haven’t done anything to it with old thermal paste and it’s just fine - want to know if I do something to it or leave it as is - it works fine for me
