Apparently the Xbox version is two discs and has the dlc included on one of them.

@Korgon Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is Biohazard 7: Resident Evil in Japan. Not exactly the same situation but close enough.

@Voltan Yeah it was in the middle of the online pass era where every major game had to have a pointless bolted on multiplayer mode like BIOSHOCK 2, Dead Space 2, Spec Ops the Line, etc

You know how companies have been re-releasing older games from the ps3 era with the online stripped out? Well I’m expecting WB to re-release Arkham Origins with the single player stripped out leaving just the crap multiplayer at this rate.

@Wiggo We're literally on a PlayStation fan website. Why would I care about Xbox's terrible disc situation?

As for the rest, they're not reasons that benefit the consumer so I didn't acknowledge them.

I'd like to be able to trade a game in if don't like it. I'd like to be able to refund it if it doesn't work. I'd like to not have my game purchases tied to an account that I may not always have access to. Thats three reasons off the top of my head as to why I prefer physical games.

@Wiggo Incorrect. Thats a self made problem that Xbox has. This game could fit on a 100GB PS5 disc with no trouble (Its 85gb).

The vast majority of PlayStation releases come fully working on the disc.

No doubt it will be an extraction game in more ways than one. Mainly extracting microtransactions from your wallet.

Oh no! Anyway…

No seriously, who cares?

90% of all my physical games are bought online where the real competitive pricing occurs. The only option on the high street these days is Game, and they’ve been pretty tragic for the last few years with relatively zero competition. Their prices aren’t competitive with online stores and so they get less business.

There’s still a market for physical games. I know I buy more than ever at the moment as a collector so I hope it keeps going until at least the end of the current generation.

@MS7000 It is on a disc, I have it preordered. Try Play-asia.

@sanderson72 This is exactly what it would be. I’m not even getting my hopes up.

Is this game online required?

The fake try hard gamer dialog in the Helldivers section put me right off it.

Hyped for FF Rebirth though.

Going to be picking up the physical. Looking forward to it.

Wow. Isn’t the game industry fun! So glad we all spend hours trying to decrypt corporate contracts and mergers than we do playing games! It’s all about as fun as the average Ubisoft game so I guess it’s appropriate after all.

@Sil_Am Same, but if not I’ll just import it.

@Gamer_Guy I'm patient. I can wait easily.

I hope this doesn’t end up being some always online pile of *****…

I hope the CMA hold out as long as they can. It’s hilarious seeing MS squirm.

This is depressing.

Gaz died for this?!

Never bothered with the original as I assumed it would be miserable to play through like all their other games.

Everybody spelt Bimmy’s name wrong.

Last CoD I played was the last Modern Warfare 3. Though the best thing about this whole thing is that we’re one step closer to the dream of having both Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 both be a thing.

@Rob_230 That was a good read, thank you.

@naruball You're right I can’t back it up with figures.

I should have said the impact of both is concerning.

I am very curious to know how much power is used by 10 million PS5 downloading a 100gb game on new release day. I imagine it’s significant.

@naruball I need to prove that gaming has an impact on the environment now? Wasn’t that your argument? I was agreeing with you. I was just making the point that you can’t separate one from the other.

@Wheatly Not that recent considering it covers the period before 2020 before the skew to 80% digital purchases that happened after the pandemic.

@Wheatly Would love to see some stats.

@naruball You can’t make an argument that digital is superior to physical because of the environmental damage of one is greater than the other. The impact is equal and if you truly care that much, you would need to stop gaming all together. The PS5 chugs energy, especially when downloading a 100gb game.

If you want to direct your rage at pointless plastic waste, go target Funko.

@naruball It was sarcasm, there was nothing to fix.

@Titntin Yeah it the games that are destroying the planet. Not the server farms or the continued use of fossil fuels. ***** all those people that would like a choices when buying a games for multiple valid reasons that have been repeated a hundred times each time this come up!

@Godot25 First world problems. Love it.

@Godot25 Oh my god. The injustice of having to put a disc in… The shame…

@Atreus97 Don’t walk off a cliff. That would be tragic.

@Atreus97 And when the servers are off on their end through no fault of your own, you’ll play the game how?

So it’s “Go to the place and shoot the lads”. Ok. Pass.

I’ve probably bought more physical games this year than ever before.

@Drago201 Not long after RE Village.

RE: Resistance came out before that with RE:3 Remake and that sucked too haha

@Drago201 Everybody already forgot about RE:verse then?

Stop right there, Criminal scum! Nobody breaks the law on MY watch!

Even if we never get ports of the sky trilogy. They could do it through the psp emulator surely?

@Wheatly Only going to get worse once they stop making physical versions.

@Shepherd_Tallon No, Sony’s good exclusives have resulted in Microsoft buying previously third party games to be exclusive. If it Xbox made their own quality games, it wouldn’t be an issue.

And Sony have had all the Yakuza games on PS+ Extra and Persona 5 was available for free for plus members in ps5 for ages. It means nothing.

I love me some artsy indies, but this looked dull as hell and I honestly forgot it was even out.

Sorry to hear people lost their jobs but when so many games are fighting for attention, you need to really stand out.

If Crash 4 came out 10 years ago, this would have been a multiplayer mode on the main menu that you would play for about an hour then move onto to something else.

Let’s all meet back here in a few months time when they admit it actually is cancelled!

@Martijn87 For PS owners. Not so much the other two.

I’m sure this won’t bite them in the ass. It’s not like it happened before… Oh wait.

@UltimateOtaku91 That's so they can sell the FES remake a couple of years later.
