misterBee Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Just bought War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron for PC. Shit got pulled off steam so I was forced to buy overpriced digital codes from Amazon. Still can't find a code for Devastation. I really don't want to have to buy a physical copy for PS4. 😭 Also, where is my Yakuza Kiwami 2 announcement!? Link to comment

The Transformers titles, Legend of Korra, etc. were all removed. Just like MvC2 for PS3/360...if you didn't get them while you could, they're gone now forever. 😥 DarkSakul 1 Link to comment

Questioning a 'true' gamer about physical laziness, though.... I don't care about swapping discs. I DO care about owning less stuff in general. I've lived in multiple countries/cities these past few years, and nothing is worse than trying to figure out how to take all your belongings with you on moving day. It's also easier to keep things tidy and uncluttered when you don't have an entire bookshelf/storage bin that you have to devote to games. KingTubb and Camacho 2 Link to comment
Chadouken Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I dunno, I kinda like physical copies of games, mostly because of the instruction manuals and posters. You can't get all this with the digital copy of FFVI on the SNES: Eh? Eh? Or how about this work of art? Or *plot twist* how about when Samus was was thought to be a man because of this: Yeah, don't get any of that awesome setup for the big reveal in Metroid with the digital version. Physical copies are always better. Link to comment
Hawkingbird Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I don't care for swapping discs or re-selling my games. My physical space is limited and don't have room to have a few bookshelves and storage bins for them all. I'm not a collector so posters, artbooks and booklets hold no value for me. I like OSTs but I prefer that to be digital too. I like the convenience it affords me. KingTubb 1 Link to comment
po_pimpus Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 "Convenience" is all that shit affords, because you ain't saving money on that nonsense. Link to comment
misterBee Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Most of my games are on PC. Even in countries where new PC games still get physical releases, they're actually useless. It's often a box, the installer put on a bunch of DVDs, and a Steam activation code. You're basically just in it for something to place on a shelf + installer discs. Really quite a waste of time.

Hawkingbird Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 "Convenience" is all that shit affords, because you ain't saving money on that nonsense. I saved a bunch of money going digital. When games go on sale they tend to be super cheap. I spend more money getting a meal at Wendy's compared to when I buy games on Steam, Green Man, Humble Bundle and Fanatical. Game of the Year edition of Shadow of Mordor is $3 right now on Fanatical. Definitely not saving. Camacho and KingTubb 2 Link to comment

Physical copies are always better. Main issue is that these days physical releases don't even come with a manual. You usually get one disc, 1 case, and a 1 page paper insert that doesn't even tell you how to play the game. In that case, what's the difference between digital and physical? Not a whole lot. Old games were fun because they came with all that cool stuff. New games don't come with shit anyway. KingTubb 1 Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 I rarely ever pay full price for PC games. I got SFV with season pass on PC for $36 at launch. I do often snag physical console games on Amazon though. The 20% discount is a great incentive for anything I want at launch. Link to comment
po_pimpus Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I'm talking console. I know PC has deals all the time. Digital is actually worth it on PC. Link to comment
FMABBisGod Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Digital makes more sense on PC, but if I PC gamed anymore, I'd just pirate shit anyway LOL. Got tired of feeling like a bitch if I didn't have close to the top GPU card, which needed upgrades every 6 months. However since I console only game, minus CPS2 emus, which anything can run I must have physical. I don't collect, I have only XB1, PS4, 360, and a DC. And I have had nearly every major console for every gen since NES, so it's obvious I don't take too much stock in collecting, as that means I have let a LOT of stuff go. I also like to get money back if possible on shit purchases, I am kind of a release day snob, I don't want any games when they are old news. So each purchase is gonna be a $60. Even this gen alone, I only stand at 20 games (physical) between both, because I have sold and traded shit in,. Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 If you have to upgrade your PC every 6 months.....you are doing something wrong. I replaced my last gaming laptop after 4 years. I can still run pretty much everything on my old laptop. PC gaming on a laptops is the most expensive way to PC game. With the ridiculous mining craze, I don't see gaming requirements moving much. You can't upgrade a desktop if you want to right now.... Camacho 1 Link to comment

Recent PSN sales have been matching prices with PC digital marketplaces. I brought the digital version of Mirror's Edge: Catalyst for $5 during their black friday sale. If it starts having 20-25% discounts for pre-purchases it will be in the same ballpark. KingTubb 1 Link to comment

I haven't paid attention to PC gaming since then. I think the GTX was in the 600 series at the time I stopped. Things may be different now. IDK. Link to comment
Hawkingbird Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Things were never like that. You don't always have to jump to latest tech that drops. It takes a few years for any developer to take advantage of it since they know people like holding on to their old shit. Link to comment

Poltergeist Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 PSN has some killer fucking sales. I've never spent more than $40 on a game in the PlayStation store. It's actually almost lower than $30. It's like I'm buying games with 90's pricing, with today's money. It's great Link to comment

It's the best Tekken because I got a PS4 copy for free with my Qanba Obsidian and it's in the shrink wrap.

Bea_Iank Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Soul Calibur 6 now has a very manly man in it's cast. Now to hope Bandai Namco will do him proper justice and give him tons of very sexy costumes! Link to comment
NupoChromine Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Is Soul Caliber not big in asia? Geralt being in made me think about their previous guest characters and Assassins Creed/Star Wars/Witcher don't seem like games that would shift JP copies. (Though it would make sense to have a guest character that would sell as many copies as possible globally, so I get the decision) Link to comment

MillionX Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 y'know, looking back it's pretty funny what kind of guest characters have been in....and how much we've had to suspend disbelief as a result... like Yoda and Vader being in a Soul Calibur.... so we have to pretend that these people with regular ass real-world based weapons can somehow fight evenly with 2 guys that have light saber weapons (that they have mastered)....y'know...weapons that should slice clean through a regular sword and shield like it's nothing. Bayonetta 2-- the Lumen Goddamn Sage, man... just one of many awesome things in this legendary franchise. Words can't ever do these games justice... you have to play them for yourself. Hopefully the dude is playable by default in part 3.... I'd make it so him and Jeanne are playable from the start, perhaps with their own storyline. It might be quite a while before I play anything else... I'm still looking forward to Wizard of Legend (shameless plug: https://twitter.com/contingent99?lang=en ) and Vampyr (shameless plug: https://twitter.com/VampyrGame )this most this year...

Darc_Requiem Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 I've been over guest characters for sometime. Give me characters from the franchise. I see all these guest characters in Tekken yet staple characters from the franchise are mission. While I don't care for Tekken, I'd hate for that to happen to fighting game that I do care for. Link to comment
Killa Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Well that has absolutely happened for me in Tekken 7 since its my favorite fighting game franchise and the one i pride myself at being halfway decent at. There are definitely staple characters that need to come back, but if guest characters get more bodies on the game then im all for it. Give me Ganryu and I will be happy. Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 So I snagged Yakuza Kiwami for $20 at Best Buy the other day. Fun game, kicking myself for not playing any of these games before. Sorta reminds me of Shenmue in some regards. Thoroughly Japanese game though, which is fine. I don't mind the quirkiness. Didn't expect a softcore FMV strip tease though. Oh Japan, never change.

Darc_Requiem Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 Too late been playing the crap out of Kiwami. PSN has deal for Yakuza 0 and 6 for like $70 when you preorder Yakuza 6. I'm thinking of doing it. This game is too damned fun, weird, and hilarious. Link to comment
