Physical Copies or Digital
By ImJustThatKinky • 3 years ago


With the PS5 and Xbox Series X out, it’s time to talk about consoles...eh fuck it. We’re not here to talk about the Xbox, no one cares about that console here. We’re talking about PS5 and the two different versions they have. You can buy the digital only PS5 for $400, while you can get the digital and disc version for $500. I never even thought they would make something like this, but now that they have, I’m wondering do I even care about having game discs anymore?



The PS5 gives you a choice of having a console that only lets you play digital games and a console that lets you play both digital or physical games. Now, I’ve been a physical copy boy forever. Since I was born in the age where digitally downloading games onto your system wasn’t a thing, I’ve been stuck on buying the physical copy. But let be honest, game disc cases take up space, and the more games you buy, the more space you’re losing. At this point, I think I just buy discs because I’m used to it. It feels weird to buy digital games instead of physical for me, it’s almost like I don’t even have the game.



Change is always hard, but if I’m going to save $100, maybe change isn’t bad. Collecting discs is cool, but it takes up space. I’ve never broken a game before, but buying it digitally would make sure I never break my game. If I buy the game digitally, I don’t have to wait a day or two for it to ship, or waste gas money to go to the store. Digital just has way more benefits to not consider it at this point. PS5 might have changed my way of purchasing games.


What do you like more, physical copies or digital ones? What version of the PS5 are you getting? Do you care about the Xbox Series X? Tell us in the comments.
