[@whowhatwhere9039]

I chose the digital, and have no regrets. I haven’t bought a disc since 2018-2019, everything digital. You see I used to be one of those “physical disc” only people, totally against digital for the reasons you stated. But the convenience of being able to sit down and have my whole collection at my finger tips is priceless. I also don’t have to worry about discs and or cases. You made an argument that the disc are better because they are physical, like you can put ‘em in the system and they’ll just play the game. Things used to be like that, but not anymore. When you put in a disc now a days, you need an update or are required to download whatever the disc is lacking. I don’t imagine that will stop anytime soon, if anything its gotten worse over the years. Going digital also saves me money because I’m not buying games just cause they’re cheap or on sale and never playing them. I had so many games still in wrappers, untouched. So sure I miss out on some great physical sales, but I buy during psn sales to mitigate my losses. As I’ve gotten older and wiser my needs have changed, I now value convenience cause time is what I have least of.

I had the digital edition first and then sold it and got the disc edition. The disc edition gives you options. It gives you everything the digital version gives you plus allowing you to find deals on disc games. It helps me being someone that buys a lot of sports games that come out every year. At least when the new version comes out I can sell it myself or trade it in for a discount on the new version. Instead of letting sports games just add up never to be played again. So it does give you options. Yes there are good deals on PS store, but having disc edition gives you flexibility to find the best deals on games. Great video!

[@MostDopeGamer775]

Listen, the REAL difference is how good you are at finding deals and sales. I’ve had both versions and truthfully Playstation is VERY competitive with this generation this time around. Every game I found cheaper in a physical copy has ended up as a free game with PS plus or at an equal or cheaper price than in store a month or two later. It’s really down to if you want to have a disc collection on a shelf, or a collection in your digital library. Either way, get one ☝️

Just purchased a disc edition! I've always been a physical collector of my games, partly because, if Sony hypothetically decided to pull the plug on their network and lock all their games, your collection becomes meaningless. Yes, it's insanely unlikely to happen, but at least having a physical copy means you're actually in charge of your copy of the game. Another reason is choice! If it's cheaper digital, there's the choice to grab it online, but otherwise, physical copies can also be sold cheaper due to how many retailers are selling, so the price isn't solely in Sony's hands as it would be if you were to buy from the PSN. It's also just great having a collection of games and seeing how your hobby's collection has built up and amassed over the years. It's also a nice visual reminder every so often to reboot a game you may not have visited in a while, whereas if you're deleting digital games from your library to make space, you're just more likely to forget about them whilst they sit in a digital pile doing nothing.

Great video and a lesson learned. Going all-digital for console may be initially convenient, but it still isn’t up to par when compared to PC. Console manufacturers have no reason to discount their digital games as deeply or as often as PC storefronts nor do they have any qualms about delisting games or outright closing their servers, eliminating future access to digital libraries. I have little doubt these issues will continue into the future, which is why if I ever get another console, it must also support physical media delivery for its games.

Console game discs include at least a full game within their contents. Certainly there are instances where one game out of a compilation is included and the others are downloaded from servers, like in the case of the first run Spyro and Crash Bandicoot trilogies from a few years back.

Also, yes the games are more expensive, but there are sales every once in a while, and you end up buying less games because you are less likely to make impulsive purchases not to miss a good deal (on a second hand game for instance), or by fear a game goes out of print.

I hate the digital editions of both consoles. I think they are a scam and people that buy them (unless they were desperate for a ps5 and couldn't find a physical one) are lying to themselves or just really... dumb. Unless you really don't kind spending 20 / 50% more on games. New games are ALWAYS 15 / 20 euro cheaper physical and even the deepest PSN discount is still often 30 to 50% more expensive than the non discounted retail price. But to be fair the digital ps5 and series s are definitely not on the dame footing. The ps5 digital edition is every bit as powerful as the disc edition. The series S is less powerful by a massive margin and is already dropping as low as 480p in some games. Its a scam made to sell to parents that are looking to buy their kid a console during the holidays but want the cheapest option. "Same as series x only 1440p" my ss. Can't even hit 1080 in the majority of games It's to be seen if Sony game pass will be competitive with ms's offering. I'm a little worried. Sony had had really slacking since they know they are on top. I miss the sony from the early ps4 days. Now they just feed is absolute crp on PSN and don't even bother with the bare minimum.

[@fanfan_the_haitian]

The thing is when you decide to go digital, you can only get a discount through Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo or the game dev company, the control is centralized. Let’s say most gamers decide to go digital, there’s less and less incentives to make game consoles with disc drives. In that case, you become constrained to using the online stores of your respective console to get your games. When you get a console with a physical drive, you’ve got options. When there’s a sale on Amazon you can get it or if someone’s selling a second hand game, you still have access to that. With a drive, you’re not stuck in a corner. Plus, let’s not forget how they can shut down any store or delist games whenever they see fit. All that money spent can go bye bye at any time. When you buy digital, you buy a license that is tied to your account and you can’t sell that game to a third party. There’s value in having a physical disc and box, you can resell a NES or N64 physical game today without any problem and you still can enjoy the game as it was in the past.

Thanks for this video! I knew I’d be buying the disc version, hands down. The digital version felt like a “light” version which barely reflected in the price. There is no way I’m going to drop 600-something bucks and box myself in to use a digital format only for 4 to 5 years at a time! I’ve seen disc games being sold cheaper than their digital versions, and vice-versa. I’d rather have the peace of mind to choose which version of the game I want that suits me in that moment. I get $100 is quite steep by itself, but if one is in the market for something as expensive as PS5 and to then get cold-feet over the disc version is like buying a high-end iPad and then griping how some apps have to be paid for.

There's absolutely zero difference between the digital and the physical except for the disc reader inside the disc version they both work exactly the same and you're not going to pay more with the digital unless you buy the game right at launch and the physical version does not last longer than the digital as a matter of fact it probably has a shorter lifespan due to overheating

Just bought the ps5 digital edition and have no regrets. I see how it can box others in, but personally I only play a few games like FIFA, Warzone, F1, etc, so once I’ve bought the 3/4 games that I want I won’t be paying anything more really. I already have F1 2021 as well, I got it on sale on the PS store for €30. It helps that the PS sales are far better than the Xbox ones, I had an Xbox one for 6 years or so and their sales were usually weak - small reductions on games that aren’t in demand - whereas PS can have 50% reductions on games that are still only in the middle of their life cycle.

I guess the digital console makes most sense if you are a patient gamer. PSN sales are often awesome but you have to wait a long time for excellent deals. On the other hand with the disc console you can have great deals all the time and even if the digital version of a game is much cheaper than the retail game you still win because you can any time buy and download it.

[@ChosenOneDan]

the thing is you save $100 with the digital edition which lets you afford to add in a 2tb nvme ssd to the console which you're going to want with the disc edition ps5 too. I'm not a bluray guy and I've been a pc gamer since the 90s so like physical games just aren't a thing on pc so its not a big deal to me to amass a massive physical library. I only did it on ps4 and earlier just because there was some good physical deals at the time. now that ps plus extra exists its way more convenient to sub to that and just grab whatever I wanna play. and now with 3tb of storage I got plenty to just download and swap whenever I want.

It’s cool if folks are caught on the nostalgia of having disc but the future is digital!!! I got the disc then was lucky to switch to digital. The price to me didn’t matter. I don’t have Blu-ray or DVD’s and the games I had in my PS4 was digital and I was able to carry them over with no charge. Pricing of the games, I just wait when Sony has the specials.

Well no, because sale prices are made by the retailer, not by the games publisher/developer. That’s why when a game goes on sale at a certain store, it might still be full price elsewhere. Permanent price drops as opposed to sales are usually made by the publisher/developer and are universal amongst different retailers and the digital storefront. Also, unless you’re purchasing directly from a retailer (ie “Ships and Sold by Amazon”), you’re not getting the same warranty on a product, so if you buy a video game on sale from a third party seller, and you open it, and receive it damaged, they might not take it back or replace it as easily as if you had purchased it directly from a certified retailer. And lastly, this might be a regional thing, but buying digital games might mean not having to pay tax versus buying the physical copy.

[@frutti_di_marius]

Used games are not necessarily cheaper than digital ones. There are discounts on PSN all the time plus online key sellers that offer game keys for really low prices. Other than Nintendo games, PS discs drop extremely fast in price so with most games you won't even get a lot of money back when you resell them. To me digital games are more convenient, I can get them 24/7 without having to go to a store or wait for parcels and I can switch between games without having to change discs. My experience with the PS4 was that I never used the drive as I always found great games on discount and when I was waiting for a new game for months I chose to download it the second it was released instead of having to get the disc somewhere. Put your personal usage first instead of the hardware prices or potential money savings with games.

[@diegofrgc]

Bought both, kept the Digital. You just have to know WHEN to buy from the PS Store. Deathloop, RE Village and Mass Effect Legendary are $30 rn. Doom Eternal $15, Wolfenstein Alt History $17. Also, if you have an external Hard Drive. It is faster to tranfer from console to hard drive and back again, than installing directly from the disc and download the patches.

It just depends on your preference. I personally haven’t bought a game or movie disc in several years. I don’t miss having to get up and swap discs to change games or movies or making sure their not scratched, broken, misplaced, or stolen. Digital is the present and future, which is why the systems are increasing in internal memory capacity. I will gladly pay the price difference between the instant download and ordering on amazon with shipping and handling and waiting, for the convenience of just clicking buy and instantly downloading my content to my account which I can login and access anywhere. As well as seamlessly swapping between them. The disc is for people who just don’t want to let it go, and Playstation wants to avoid the backlash Xbox got when they released the Xbox One. [Edit] Disc also take up more physical space in the home. Which can really become a problem when you want to maintain a minimalist setup and steady increasing your case collection.

Didn’t even look at the price. When I checked the confirmation, I realized it was the Digital Edition. I was about to cancel the order but decided to stick with it since I have zero physical media…and it would be another seven years til I could chance at another PS5. I have literally no complaints.

To be fair who even plays Avengers anymore am I right?

Thank you for the information. I am so educated on the ps5 I still haven't found one. Ty

[@lemming9984]

An important thing you missed. Both PS5 editions have less than a TB of available storage meaning that with the digital version you will have to add more internal storage almost straight away. Digital games take up an awful lot of space.

[@Hijynx87]

physical games take up just as much space. I have a buttload of ps4 physical games, so obviously I held out until this weekend.

all you have to do is get external storage, not that serious

[@lemming9984]

@@eieieiriidieiddidu8907 No, The disc version will play digital downloads as well as disc based games.

@@lemming9984 Is it better to buy digital games or disc PS5? If you have good internet and no particular attachment to physical games, go digital. It's the same experience as the full version, but $100 cheaper. What's better, a PS5 disc or digital? PS5 digital and PS5 physical edition both have the same performance Is disc faster than digital? If you have the disc, it only downloads updates or patches. If you buy the digital version, it downloads the contents of the game, plus the patches and updates. In either case, the download speed is the same (as determined by your internet connection)
