If it were only Microsoft..
Digital only gamers seem to be the same as vegans. Mostly seem to be an American thing. Rest of the world still like physical media.
Yeah, the climate con is the biggest con I've ever seen to be honest. Pity so many people/politicians fell for it. It's the cleverest money making / laundering scheme everIn the UK a big move away from physical, and it's just the way everything seems to be going here, from cash, to your monthly docket to Gas bill with are all now going paperless thanks to Climate con
It makes sense. If the vast majority of your userbase will play these on GamePass, why bother printing discs? Also they have few consoles with actual disc drives.Gears of War reloaded, outer worlds 2 and many more only have physical releases on PS5 here in Australia
Xbox versions? Digital only.

Digital is good but its also a double edge sword , physical media has more sales
during the holiday season , kids and parents would rather buy a console and physical box game instead of a thin cardboard printed xbox gamepass download card with $50 value
Its just an excuse to tax and get more money out of people from corps and GOV. While the super rich and politicians live the high lifeYeah, the climate con is the biggest con I've ever seen to be honest. Pity so many people/politicians fell for it.

I'll take climate changes seriously when China, India etc. are taken to task. So far it only seems to be targeted at white countries/Japan being the exception(which ironically are the smallest polluters). Gee I wonder whyIts just an excuse to tax and get more money out of people from corps and GOV. While the super rich and politicians live the high life
I don't even know if that's true now. Parents like the idea of handing over a physical item, and everyone likes opening a present, but loads of kids spend their pocket money on V-bucks. I reckon loads of kids are entirely at ease with digital purchases because it's what they've known their whole lives and on top of that, would rather just have all their games ready to load up without messing around with ejecting and inserting discs. You'll doubtlessly find some people who don't agree, but I tend to think that physical media is generally speaking an old person's preference, outside of things like Vinyl records, where the aesthetic and analogue process is part of the charm.
Yep, and I'll take it seriously when our superrich and politicians give up the internet, their smartphones, the new suits and dresses and all fights abroad Ect. All to save the planetI'll take climate changes seriously when China, India etc. are taken to task. So far it only seems to be targeted at white countries/Japan being the exception(which ironically are the smallest polluters). Gee I wonder why
There comes a time where the society has to move on to improve. the gaming climate isn't going to get held back by a handful of physical people.
Have to admit the climate thing is what started me looking into solar power and to be perfectly honest I am quite happy in the long run I did go full off grid solarYeah, the climate con is the biggest con I've ever seen to be honest.

China is the global renewable energy leader though. There's no other country doing as much as they are to adopt clean energy.I'll take climate changes seriously when China, India etc. are taken to task.

Never said I was against solar, electric. Not at all, I think it's great if people do that, if it's what makes them happy and works for them, then that's awesome. What I have an issue with is people/governments etc. trying to force it down people's throats, tax people etc.Have to admit the climate thing is what started me looking into solar power and to be perfectly honest I am quite happy in the long run I did go full off grid solar
Several years ago we had a pretty bad ice storm that knocked power out in my area for about a week and living in a pretty secluded area it was close to two weeks before utilities were working and at night it was getting well below zero
Some of our in laws stayed with us while their house froze up and busted water lines
Last year alone between storms and a drunk driver we lost power 7 times that lasted more than a few hours so to me it was well worth the investment
Plus adding in my truck is an F150 Lightning EV that I can charge now for free.
