Topic	What next-gen console are you going with
streamofthesky 09/17/20 12:40:16 AM #27:	CaptainStrong posted... PS5 with a disc drive. But not at launch. I'll get it when a slim version that doesn't look ridiculous comes out. I've always waited for the slim version of a PS console, too. But... I wonder if the slim will even come w/ a disc drive? Sony and MS seem to intend to kill physical media, it's impossible to play w/ discs next gen w/o dropping $500 (at launch, I mean). They even had a chance to undercut MS and opted not to, not by even 1 cent. Both companies clearly wanted to make sure to heavily price-gate physical gaming. Putting out a cheaper model w/ the disc drive would completely undermine those efforts to push for an all-digital future. <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:944708745] in What next-...
