Disk drive needs to be bought separately if you want one.

Crazy that discs are still a thing, wonder when consoles will fully chin them off might be the gen after.

Discs are considerably cheaper, and you can resell them, than the ripoff that is the PlayStation store.

Yep but they will be phased out in the next gen, PC has been virtually disc free over about 10 to 15 years for the majority. I have an Xbox series S without the drive and it's fine. Can buy plenty of console games on cdkeys and other websites for cheaper prices.

Ye, think one of the reasons for the decline of pc discs is there was no resale value. Play or cex wouldn't touch em with a barge pole.

Isn't there an active lawsuit against Sony for selling digital only consoles and then monopolising the sale of digital playstation items? Not sure how far it will get, but I'd choose disc every time. I'd also do away with single layer game experiences that somehow still require an online connection, but that's just me.
Even outlets such as cdkeys, beyond playstation store credit, don't have much if any digital playstation codes.

They also came with a CD key that was like a one time use only so probably wasn't resellable anyway. But steam and that have been around for so long now CDs feel ancient to me haha.
