Uhhh. Maybe I'm a little TOO far from the console crowd but I'm going to say this anyways.

Who tf cares? I'm a PC gamer and I've been without a disk drive since 2009.

I will happily admit it is definitely a different situation. For one, this would essentially give Sony a monopoly on games. Which would mean that they would never lower prices and gamers have no one to go to other than them. You know what I'm talking about, all the same shit that Nintendo has been doing for years.

I guess that I'm just curious how many people dislike this.

cant function as a dvd player as well as console if there isnt a disc drive

some people just have games on disc and without a disc drive they either have to buy the disc drive seperate or rebuy their game digitally

If I'm not mistaken it's actually a Blu-ray player not just a dvd player. Mind you this is from memory not necessarily a fact, lol

It's def a blu-ray player. In fact it's not just that, it's a 4k blu-ray player.

Actually the disk drives makes the console attractive, as you can snag cheap second hand games
