Effort...
Agreed. My son is 17, he and I share games if it's a game we both want to play. So now we only need 1 copy for both of us, saving $60 per game. Can't do that with digital.
But generally physical games go on sale before, or even lower then digital. I bought Rage 2 and Devil May Cry 5 last Black Friday from Walmart for $20 & $15. And it was only recently that I saw them that cheap digitally. More often when you compare the pricing, physical games are actually cheaper. Yes there are times when Steam sales and Playstation Summer Sale roll around that have huge discounts, but physical games drop faster then digital. Especially if a game isn't selling well or...
UPDATE: The game is now available on Steam, Epic Games & GOG. Sweet!
I don't think they have a choice. They'd lose out on too many sales.
Yes, 'hurry' and download this mobile game designed with Microtransactions to collect and level up your Turtles. Where the majority of reviews talk about hitting 'the wall'. Which is when Bosses get difficult to quickly because you can't level up fast enough, since the game is designed that way, in hopes to make you want to Pay to level up faster.
Yes, by all means, race to the Play Store and install this game quickly!
Well it makes sense not to release the Digital version where download speeds are slow. Won't be much use in those locations. Even if they release them later on, still won't sell well.
Yea it's a shady practice. I worked at a store that forced people to buy a controller and a game when the 360 came out. Felt bad because that was never mentioned when the store was taking pre-orders. It was sprung on the employees and then the customers once the systems arrived.
IO have referred to this game several times over the years. They even had many arcade machines in Hitman 2 with the Freedom Fighters artwork on them.
It's about time. Freedom Fighters was great. Always would've loved to see more of it.
I think as far as they've said, only storage expansion is via USB. Because of the custom SSD you won't be able to swap out internals like previously. And any expanded storage is merely just for storage. You'll have to move at least PS5 games from the storage onto the SSD. Might still be able to play PS4 games of USB HD. It's why Xbox has that proprietary expansion card, to ensure compatibility.
Man, I need to get back into this game. Been wanting to forever, just haven't found the time.
Well according to me this analyst is hitting the bottle a little early in the morning. It will sell very well I'm sure. But he's predicting it will sell TWICE as much as the PS4. That's unrealistic.
Yea. I got 1 at Walmart when the reopened at 9pm last night.
Yea, I already do that now. So it'll be nothing new for me next gen. But I think a lot more people will do the same. Raising up the prices and 100% will still have all the microtransactions.
Agreed. If their next acquisition is Bluepoint, I don't know whats going on in their heads.
I knew PS3 wasn't possible, but 1 & 2 would've been nice addition.
Sony announced the date for pre-orders shortly after their show. It was the retailers, specifically Walmart I believe, that posted the pre-orders anyway that night. And all the rest of them followed in a panic. So the only thing Sony could've done better on their end was announce a hard time during the date they stated. But they had no control over the retailers going awol and posting them early without warning.

You are right about that too. People to just click on Headline articles just to argue in the comment section without even reading the story. A decent amount of the blame falls on the people that Approve the article in the first place. Although, I've always theorized that some of those website have accounts on here and Approve their own garbage. So yes, it's everyone's fault, and we as a community need to get better and weed out the garbage.
The internet also think that Sony can buy Take Two in retaliation. The internet has no idea what they're talking about.
