    No disk drive is no purchase from me. I even saved up the money to buy one, but I won’t without a disk drive.

      Yeah I think we’ve learned by now that if you can’t touch it, you don’t own it. I’m tired of “leasing” software.

      i mean…you could always buy the add-on disc drive? Assuming that it is still compatible with the Pro, not sure why it wouldn’t be. They get to fleece physical media heads for an extra $80, that’s a win for Sony.

        I did not know that was a thing and I absolutely would buy one. Thank you.

          awesome! just double-check that it’s compatible with the new one before dropping the extra $80! Nothing about the Pro is official yet, so we still gotta wait and see.

        I bet that hardly anyone buys the add on drive and they use that as a reason to completely drop physical media support in the PS6.

          Why wouldn’t they? Something like 93℅ of game sales are digital already. Physical games are almost extinct.

            Oh I agree they should. Physical game sales are a PITA.

    Why do they insist on making it so ugly?

      the hardware design team is so far up their own asses with the PS5 design. Here’s two articles where you can read how high they are on their own supply: One, Two

        Reading the first link, I can almost see them sniffing their own farts. How much do they get paid for this? I’m thinking of switching careers.
