AI Overview

While you can technically insert a physical game disc and start playing, most modern physical games require some initial installation and updates from the internet before you can fully play them due to the need to download additional game data and patches for optimal performance and bug fixes; meaning you usually cannot play a physical game without any updates at all.
Key points to remember:
Installation from disc:
Even with a physical disc, a large portion of the game data needs to be installed on your console's hard drive for faster loading times.
Patches and updates:
Developers often release updates for physical games to fix bugs, add new features, and improve gameplay, which usually need to be downloaded even if you have a physical copy

Re: Poll: Do You Use PS Stars?

Can’t say I’ve ever paid it much mind after it launched. I got some digital award that I thought would have been cool in a HOME space, but give. HOME is long gone I didn’t give it any more thought.

I did check it after reading the Push Square article on being able to get PSN credits again and found I had $30 worth of points, but that’s it.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS5 Pro?

I’m typically a Day One person, but as quickly as the PS5 generation seems to be running the PS6 will be out before we know it. I may get one, but it’s unlikely.

Re: PS5 Pro Reveal Is Already Sony's Most Disliked Console Announcement

@ShogunRok
I think the biggest issue is the appearance. An all powerful $700 system and relatively no new games to show it off. What did Sony show? TLoU2 remastered, Spider-man 2, Ratchet & Clank, GT7, Forbidden West…I think the most recent game was Hogwarts Legacy which released 19 months ago.

It just compounds with a somewhat negative trending for PlayStation right now.

And that’s without the alleged removal of Concord from people’s console. Delist the game. Make it unplayable. But removing it from people’s consoles completely? That’s kind of scary.

Re: Xbox on Bringing Exclusives to PS5: The Industry Is Changing for All of Us

The problem with Phil is the lack of transparency. He knew Indy was launching on PS5 when he sidestepped the question and said it wasn’t one of the first four. Instead of being honest with the Xbox players and treating them like adults, he left it at that until now. That’s a pretty crappy way to treat the people that pay your bills.

Re: Amazon's Excellent Fallout TV Adaptation Up for 16 Emmy Awards

Such a great adaptation! I loved The Last of Us, but it was the same story with character additions and expansions. Really well done, but it was TLoU.

Fallout was Fallout. A live version of the game with a story and characters that really worked.

@DennisReynolds I agree that he owns that role and plays Homelander pitch perfect.
