Games are basically digital now a days, even WHEN you get the disk anyway. With all the day 1 updates, and whatever else, it's slowly shifting more and more digital.
DON'T LOSE THAT SD CARD/EXTERNAL DRIVE!

People don't buy physical copies what
i rarely buy physical copies on the PC or Boner because i have no need to due to their online marketplaces actually being pretty good
on the playstation physical copies are the only way to go because the online service is abysmal
I can't stand not having a game in my hands
It's like I don't even have it
It's a new thing for console users, but the PC platform has been (almost) digital only for so long now that I don't even think twice about not having a physical copy anymore. I actually prefer it to be digital now just because it's much more convenient to not have vidya taking up room on the shelf and having to dig out the disk every time i want to play something different.
Even then, I just think of people saying this, and them probably not spending anything on music since it's a digital market now. Games are easily going to be like that within a decades time.
And yeah, not digging around is great, and I still feel like I own it. I never subscribed to the "I don't FEEL like I own it unless I hold it" feeling people seem to still hold. I only argue that point if it's a special edition, or a collectors thing or something with a cool case.
What if I still buy CDs and DVDs? Am I still allowed to complain about digital shit?
Hell, my dad still buys vinyl records.
Digital is just intolerable in every way. I bought Pokémon Moon digitally--just because I had never really done so before--and I very much regret it.
Your real mistake was buying Pokemon Moon at all
it's a dope game tho

I've hated PSN for years. I can't fathom how some people can unironically believe that PSN is somehow equal to or greater than XBL, because it's very clearly not.
PSN was free on PS3, making it better by default.
Dude you have some stupid opinions, god damn.
If the service is good (which it was), then it being free makes it better by default. XBL has always sucked cock primarily because there was always an annual fee.

You don't need to pay for LIVE to download games, only if you want to play with others. Which I do. So the faster download is just faster and its free.
I doubt it's all that much faster--I'm sure you are all exaggerating.

Welp, already got a shiny Ditto out of it, some 100+ Dittos in. Doesn't have ideal IVs (or Impostor), but it's still kinda neat to have.

« on: December 14, 2016, 05:11:53 AM »
So there's this method to getting a legit 6 IV Ditto that I've been grinding for. The first Ditto I caught has 4 perfect IVs, one nearly-perfect IV (29-30), and one imperfect IV (Attack). The next two Ditto had dogshit IVs (four perfect, overlapping attack and special attack). Gonna see if I can get at least five perfect stats with no overlap between Attack and Special Attack.

The only issue I have with it is that the student would essentially be receiving double credit for one paper, which is bad. That's not "plagiarism"--that's academic dishonesty. Plagiarism involves at least two parties--you cannot plagiarize yourself, and the very idea kinda makes me chuckle. So too does the notion of giving yourself "due credit." C'mon now.

I generally know within an hour of playing the game whether I'm going to enjoy it or not.
Half-Life 2--projected rating (one hour of gameplay): 8-9/10. actual rating 7/10 (revising to an 8)
Halo: CE--projected rating: 4-6/10. actual rating: 5/10
Fallout 3--projected rating: 6-8/10. actual rating: 7/10 (revising to a 6)
Wind Waker--projected rating: 7-9/10. actual rating: 10/10
Pokémon Moon--projected rating: 7-8/10. actual rating: 7-8/10.
Even if a game has a "slow" start, it's easy to gauge within a short amount of time through small details and tone-setting whether a game will end up being great or not. I can't think of a game that has surprised me too heavily, unless it was in a negative way (SSB Brawl: projected rating, 10/10. actual rating: 4-6/10).

For one thing, when XBL came around, online gaming wasn't really a basic service like it is today. PC games had them, but it was mostly unexplored territory for consoles. They offered benefits like downloadable DLC content that self-installs, voice chat with a headset included, and a friends list. 15 years ago, these were cutting-edge features. By comparison, PSN did the bare minimum required for each gen.
(FWIW, I'm probably partial to Xbox Live at least because I didn't get a PS console until much later.)
Well, other than faster download speeds and free service, what more out of PSN would you want right now?

Maybe other people had better experiences than me.
Well, I certainly did. I genuinely don't understand this "slow downloads" meme. Maybe I'm just more patient, and I can't tell when something is going slower than it should? Either way, it's a non-issue for me, like I said. I don't think wanting free online services makes you a cheapskate--why should such a basic service be paid for at all? It's like water. And as far as I'm concerned, being free pretty much trumps any XBL advantage you could name.

It was slow and the security sucked. PSN was always held together by duct tape.
I mean, I could buy a cheap car with tape for a window and two flat tires, but that doesn't make it a better deal.
Security is a non-issue if you're smart and never have money in your account and always pay for purchases upfront. It wasn't that slow, and even if it's super slow for you, it's still free. You don't have to like it, but it shouldn't be that difficult to understand why some people would have preferred it for a time. PSN isn't free anymore on PS4, obviously, and that's a big fucking problem for me--but it was indisputably the better option for people like me who CANNOT STAND annual fees.

Using family members as pawns for immortality is exactly something I would do, actually. That's my modus operandi.
thank you for italicizing that, i wouldn't have known you were using a latin term otherwise

Shouldn't have to pay for it, though.

Yes it does--once again, you're just too fucking stupid.
Why would I not want to share my infinite knowledge with everyone else? I'm not a selfish cunt.
Is that supposed to be a rhetorical question? Because I can very easily answer it.
Good thing rhetorical questions aren't supposed to be difficult to answer. If you're someone like me and you'd want to be forgotten, you're a fucking idiot. But we already knew that.

I prefer to be despised/hated than to be ignored and forgotten.
So you're that desperate for acknowledgement of your existence?
Verbatim and Dio likes the reply, so that means they're also desperate for others' attention. You heard it here first, folks.
Given that I'm the only one in the universe who knows anything, of course I'm desperate for attention.
That doesn't justify anything.
