Origin_Pete   10 #2 Posted March 29, 2013 It'll be Blu-Ray. A lot of people around the world still have relatively poor internet speeds so 100% digital distribution wouldn't be viable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

BarryRiley   10 #7 Posted March 29, 2013 Download only games, even on only a single console would probably close down half of the game retailers on the planet. It would also require HUGE hard drives and a massive, stable server system. I doubt Sony is ready for any of these   Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bypassblade   10 #8 Posted March 29, 2013 I don't know how true it is, so don't shoot the messenger, I read the other week that games for the PS4 will have some sort of encoding on them, and will only be able to be played on one console. If true it would put an end to the trade in market, hope its wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
