Sony's newest DRM policy sucks but I honestly love my PS5 and think it is the best console since the Gamecube. Both in terms of hardware design and in game variety. Haters are gonna hate but I can't afford a gaming PC, it looks great on my TV, and like being able to buy physical games. The controller is also nice and I like how the PS5 slim looks in my media setup.

On the other hand, I hate how Sony manages their online services or how extractive they are. You can't even sort PSN games by their user rating and the PS+ catalogue is mostly crap. I do like though that they recently added Horizon: Zero Dawn Remastered since it's a game I would never buy.

But, yeah, Sony's policies suck, but I like the PS5 console, it's a console that seems worse on paper than the experience of actually owning one, and I've had a lot of fun playing on it.

Comparing the PS5 to the Gamecube on game variety is odd. Fundamentally the PS5's library of exclusives are extremely samey, with Astro Bot being the only noteworthy exception. The Gamecube, by comparison, was held up by the variety in its exclusive software first and foremost, with it getting middling 3rd party support. If variety of games ultimately comes down to variety in 3rd parties, even putting PC aside the PS5 would ultimately tie with current gen Xbox on that issue.

With no exclusives who cares. Consoles are done till they can battle pc again by locking them out of actual good games.

I just like how it plays all the multiplats and is easy to use. I think you're all too negative about it. It's not a bad video game console. I've been having more fun with PS5 than I had with Xbox 360, and I'll get hate for this but it's better than what the Switch was doing post-2017.

I think I ran into this issue on Steam once. I don't remember if it was timed, if I accidentally tried to go online on Steam without an actual internet connection, or if I accidentally got logged out, but I could no longer play the games in offline mode.

Skimming through the thread, what the fuck is this cope about digital not having resell value?
Of course something that can be infinitely replicated is going to have a lower/nil resell value when compared to something tied to a physical medium, still doesn't negate ownership of those digital files.

The owning physical games narrative is just that, a narrative. Their real value is in selling them to collectors 10 years later. It's a market held up entirely by artificial scarcity and corporate worship, picrel is a good example of this mental illness

There was a bug that resulted in some people's games showing this 30 day online check-up deadline, some people then jumped the gun and took early conclusions about it, this in turn fell into the hands of malicious actors who wasted no time in spreading panic about it, some were even claiming that you lose your games if you fail to go online in 30 days.

Ive only had one box ever inspected and it was cuz shipper put wrong item description on box that didnt match size of box. How often does this happen.

>>737742924
It's not a bug though, any game bought after March 2026 cannot be played offline after 30 days unless you connect to the internet and it 'updates' the license. Sure Sony could come out with some blog post stating it was a bug and they're fixing it, but that's how it works as of now on both PS4/PS5.

It's also how it works on PS3 since forever, but no one makes a fuss about it because that console is piss easy to mod and Sony doesn't ban for CFW there anymore

no you can't.
you literally said $300-350 + $250 which is already more expensive than ps5.

and you're comparing a used product where other people jerked off on vs new console
ps+ is $80 per year and you get 3 games "for free" each month.
even less if you're buying on sale
>>
>>737743130
This is dogshit but the Helix is even bigger dogshit, you're not getting Steam on that thing, you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Just get a Switch 2, Steam Machine, and or a Steam Deck 2. If you already having gaming PC, stick with that. PS6 console and handheld, and Xbox Helix, ain't worth getting. Helix is even going to have the 30-day DRM the PS4/PS5 currently have.

I doubt a used PC is gonna run games as poorly as a PS5 unless you just can't find RAM for reasonable price at all. Even my old PC from 2014 runs games better than a PS5 because the CPU is stronger and the RTX 3060 Ti which I installed in it later is too.

no it doesn't. the most basic tier which provides online multiplayer access only gives you a handful of games a month, and you can only claim them if you're subscribed for that month, and only play them as long as you're subscribed. it's basically the epic games store free monthly games, except you have to pay for the "free games".

incorrect. you can no longer back up saves to USB for PS5 games. you could on PS4, and you can with PS4 games on PS5, but you can't for PS5 games on PS5. #4theplayers

then why does sony use them for their ps1, 2 and psp emulation on ps5 and for the playstation mini?

A 360 used DVD and could only store 9gb data. The BR driver could store 40-45gb IIRC, it was new tech which came at a price premium, and was still less than standalone players.
PS3 wasn't 2-3x the price of a 360 lol. I had both. The price difference was a 100-150 more.

not to mention, the 360 launched without wifi, hdmi, and a hard drive (backwards compatibility with OG Xbox games only worked with the Elite consoles). add all of those and it costs the same if not more than the ps3

>>737747248
the ps3 was $499 for the 20gb base model. the 360 was $299. so 200 difference, almost 2x the price though. the wii was $249 which is half the price of the 20gb ps3.

>>737747310
the 360 didn't need a hard drive. it didn't require mandatory installs like the ps3 did because of how shit blu ray is at transfer speeds. you could get away with a usb or basic memory card for game saves like the ps2. hdmi wasn't a mainstream thing back in 2005 when most people still had CRT's so the 360 was a good product for its time. later editions added this stuff when they became more mainstream, but it consequently allowed for a cheap console without pointless features most people didn't need.

being able to play ps3 games on a ps5 natively isn't pointless. it's a feature that everyone would like to have, and already exists on PC, for free. having blu ray when normal dvd was fine and way cheaper to produce and use, was actually pointless. there's a reason why the ps3 gen nearly sunk sony and it was the sole reason xbox even became a mainstream brand. the ps4 ended up following in the xbox 360's footsteps and completely abandoned all the weird shit the ps3 had.

It sounds like it's their fix because they're going 100% digital and they want some way to get PS physical collection to work with the digital only handheld. Basically this happened because Sony lost with Vita so Sony has to fight PC and Nintendo at the same time but they're losing both fights. There's no reason to buy Playstation when you can pirate everything on PC and get way better performance, and there's no reason to buy Playstation when Nintendo gets all third party games. If GTA 6 is confirmed day 1 on Nintendo the Playstation brand is just dead at that point.

I do but it's still the same policy.
At the end of the day, when I buy a Steam game I need to verify it every 30 days by connecting to the internet with Steam open. There is legitimately no difference between what Sony is implementing and what Steam has done forever.

The only difference is that I can get around that policy far easier on my PC than a PS5 user can. That doesn't null and void the fact that Steam has this policy.

I wasn't defending Sony, I was extending the attack onto Steam.

It's a good thing shilling isn't a thing. We'd have to worry about liars on the internet but it's a good thing you closed that one down.
Furthermore, these posts would be about specific games and through launching them directly and not through Steam. Which is circumnavigating their policy and is a deliberate choice by developers to allow, not something Steam allowed.

I have the standard PS5 and I still like to call it "the PS4 Pro Pro" as it doesn't feel much different from it's predecessor, I don't see any improvement on loading times when playing PS4 games on it, the controllers come with all these cool features yet they are rarely ever used in any game, Playstation is all about hardware "upgrades" but Sony still wont bother upgrading the sticks only so that people continue to waste 80 bucks on new ones the moment they start to drift (the controllers only go on sale once or twice a year because fuck you).
>>
>>737753974
Consumer rights don't sell, that's a fact. If you have the IQ to be self-conscious about your rights you most likely can also pirate. That limits the GoG audience to people that are not only above average in intelligence (read: white), but also able and willing to pay money for a better product. Now combine that with publishers pursuing DRM ever more aggressively and you have a situation where most games are never even listed on GoG.

The 30 days drm was already a thing for PSN only games... But having to check every 30 days for digital games you buy? It's horse shit! I think I don't even need to do that on Steam. If I stay offline I can still play my Steam games. Unless it's some denuvo crap but I don't buy spyware.

No it isn't you retard. PS3 games have never had a time limit.

>>737745937
As >>737745991 mentioned, I made a joke about seeing your PS5 on top of your TV. Seeing your TV, you could have even delivered if you had any fun left in you. Too bad.
>>
>>737735034
unless the PS5 gets hacked completely eventually it'll become e-waste. Not only is the new DRM absolutely abysmal but starting with the Slim you also need online connection to pair the Disc Drives, so even your disc games will become worthless once Sony decide to turn servers off.

For how long Sony are gonna keep these servers online? Do you think they'll still be online in 50 years? And that's hoping they don't go bankrupt first. We all saw what happened with the digital movies they sold on PS3. They shut off servers and all the movies stopped working.

Everyone really need to ditch consoles and just move to PC seriously. Consoles are worthless. $100 a year to be able to play online is so retarded too.

On PS3 you download the games and then you never had to go back online ever again to access them unless the HDD went bad and you had to redownload them again on a new HDD. It was the same on PS4 and PS5 till March of this year when the new DRM came in.

This is what console cucks don't understand. You can cite technicalities and EULAs all you want, but practically you cannot take my game away from me, once I buy it on PC. If I buy it on GOG or steam, it doesn't matter. You will have to come to my house and destroy my PC and my 3+ backup drives.

To be fair, there's plenty of tendies on this very board who will aggressively try to argue they own the switch 2 and nintendo's games in the face of nintendo's tos and eula saying it's licenses all the way down and if you don't behave they'll take their toys away. Fanboys are all the same.

Being forced to use hundreds of gigabytes of data downloading games is a major problem. Discs really are the only option for a lot of people due to data limits.

Also anon that was his point. Steam, which is necessary to play these games, no longer supports XP, meaning people can longer play that game on the machine they bought it for.

>but the copy of half life 2 i bought in 2005 can still play on my current pc
Not the physical copy. That thing's been dead for 20 years. All it does is act as a key to let you download a new copy from steam's servers. The files on that disc are out of date and steam refuses to let you play out of date versions of games, even if they're singeplayer.
>>
>>737772407
It's because it's literally the only bit of freedom they have so they need to crank themselves over it from the rooftops as the be all end all. Just a shame their beloved corporations absolutely despise them being able to do that and are all working to kill it off. Not that they actually care about it anyway, they'll still find some way to spin or downplay it to defend said corporation once it happens, as always.

Yeah pretty much even down to the faggy Discord ops. The funny thing is Nintendo has admitted that they will one day simply take your digital games away whenever they see fit. This doesn't really make the sly attempt at DRM from Sony any less jewish. but it's clear that the ex-snoy tendies are just using this as ammo and not because they actually care about ownership.
