Idk... I still liked buying physical games on consoles at least because I liked the box art and feel of having something tangible in my hand... though I say this as someone who has a pretty decent sized Steam library lol.
Rumor: PS6 will be without a disc drive and 1tb SSD

All of this is to say these mothafukkin game developers are completely out of touch with reality. A lot of these fukking games these days are over 100GB in storage and they wanna release a new console with only 1TB of storage for $1000? They must really want to lose money and their long time gamers.

The ps6 is doa. The portable has a chance at $500. A $700 portable is doa.

People will just hold onto their PS5s longer (most shyt will be crossgen at the beginning anyway). So unless the 6 is substantially better than the PS5 Pro, which will have an exuberant price, then most will stay put on their 5s or 5Pros.
PS5 will be viable and supported for at least another 7-10 years.

A new console doesn’t need mass adoption day one. There won’t be any exclusive experiences made for it for years after it comes out and the majority of console players will still be playing COD, Fortnight, minecraft, etc.
Enthusiasts will upgrade no matter what the cost is and everybody else will move over as it makes sense for them

I mean they can add another TB on there and raise the price of entry but people will whine about that too. 1TB is fine. Sony has given us the option of increasing storage if we need it the last few consoles. I'm sure it's going to be the same for this one too. The OG PS5 only had 825GBs on there and I just slapped a 2tb in there until the 4tb went down in price
Essentially! The people whining are acting like this hasn't been the case for the majority of the console experience. Nobody is forcing them to get a PS6 day one. The early adopters like me are the ones that cop it and then everyone else hops on the train when they're ready. The ones who just copped their PS5 are the ones that want to extend this cycle like there hasn't been millions of people that haven't had it for 5 years already and are ready to move onPS5 will be viable and supported for at least another 7-10 years.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
All of this.We don't need a PS6 for a very long time. I know it's been six years so far since we've had the PS5, but it feels like we're only just getting started.
In any case, it should be at the very LEAST, 2tb and even that isn't gonna be enough. GTA 6 alone is gonna be the largest game so far and will damn near take half a day to install.
Obviously it ain't gonna come with a disc drive, we know that already. But if there's gonna be no physical media AT ALL, then the drive should be 4tb.
They've really been on some real bullshyt lately.
If this story is remotely true it's not a generational step forward. Same hard drive size as the console that preceded it. It's not needed because I don't think they've really used the PS5 to it's full capacity.
What if the same size hard drive doesn’t matter because games can be compressed to smaller sizes?
