  No disk drive is no purchase from me.

    Yeah I think we’ve learned by now that if you can’t touch it, you don’t own it. I’m tired of “leasing” software.

      The kicker is that owning the disk entitles you to a piece of plastic, and not much more at the moment. When servers go down, or day one patches are no longer available, the disk becomes no better than a coaster for many modern games.

    i mean…you could always buy the add-on disc drive? Assuming that it is still compatible with the Pro, not sure why it wouldn’t be. They get to fleece physical media heads for an extra $80, that’s a win for Sony.

      I did not know that was a thing and I absolutely would buy one.

      I bet that hardly anyone buys the add on drive and they use that as a reason to completely drop physical media support in the PS6.

    the hardware design team is so far up their own asses with the PS5 design. Here’s two articles where you can read how high they are on their own supply: One, Two

      Reading the first link, I can almost see them sniffing their own farts. How much do they get paid for this? I’m thinking of switching careers.
