Ars-exclusive analysis shows discs and cartridges becoming rarer and rarer.
Releasing onto Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation is A Night on the Farm, a retro-inspired horror adventure from Eastasiasoft, where exploration reveals dark secrets and lurking dangers.
Sega and Atlus' next entry in the Persona series, Persona 6, is currently aiming for a 2025 release, based on the latest rumor.
im skeptical of the validity of this although everything sounds cool and lines up with previous rumors. I'm very interested in the dual protagonist approach and how that affects the classic persona style day-to-day gameplay. However there is another previous rumor that suggested they would be doing away with the traditional calendar system.
this will be the first modern persona not made by the usual trio director, composer, art director because they're busy making metaphor, excited to see if their successors can handle the IP.
Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2's AI being stupid will be remedied by an upcoming patch, as Saber answers PvP, PvE questions and more.
Less plastic in the world isn't a bad thing, I've not had a DVD drive in my PC for years. Physical is pushing more and more into collector category rather than necessity. I buy physical but more often it's digital.
For as long as I can pick up a physical copy of a game far, far more cheaply than a digital copy - even a new, shrink-wrapped copy - then I will favor physical editions. You can also share and trade in pshyical games - I've yet to see any compelling solutions to this for digital games.
Plus, it doesn't help the PS5 SDD isn't even as big as the PS4 Pro's HDD, so less content can be installed at any one time.
I don’t mind if digital is a choice but an all digital future is not something I want to be part of.
The worst is having a couple of collectors editions now being digital only, it’s shitty, especially when they come with a steelbook.
I don't mind if it's a niche market, as long as the option is there.
If physical media is so niche, then why's it so hard to find either of the new consoles disc versions? I still haven't made the next gen jump yet and will not until I find one.
