Buy PS4 game
>PCs don't have this problem
>Always online
Most of those games are shit like Destiny or The Division.
>Literally will not let me play until 23GB of patches download or if the servers are under maintenance
If you were an actual boomer gamer then you wouldn't sperg out over not being able to play a multiplayer game shooter
It is always online though. You know those free games you get for signing up? Well you can't access them if you cancel your subscription. Someone at my work actually defended this
The dumbest post I've read today so far. Congrats.
You don't get them for free, retard. 10 second Google search on the Playstation blog
>At the beginning of each month, PS Plus members will receive 2 free downloadable games from the PS Store. These are usually 2 PS4™ or PlayStation®VR games. As long as you are a PS Plus member, you’ll always have access to any game you’ve added to your library, even if you’ve previously deleted a game from your hard drive.

OKAY BOOMER
What's dumb about objective facts, incel?
Hitman 2, a single player game, is always online
4 hours is not fast
Sell it and get yourself a PS3, mate. Its a better time than ever. Most games that come out today are disappointing anyway.
PC games aren't always online, that's correct.

I'm using my ps3 way more than my ps4 or xbox one. Games are cheap as shit and great
Most games on the PS4 and XBox one are re-releases in one way or another anyway. I don't see how people justify any of the current consoles.
>buying ps3 games
>Being a miserable little jew over the sake of $2 when you get a physical object to put on your shelf
Grow up
Why would I be interested in hoarding clutter worth less than $2 a piece?
I already ripped my PS3 library and traded it all in.
>Why would I be interested in hoarding clutter worth less than $2 a piece?
Why do you even play games if that's how you view them steamdrone?
You don't have to be allways online you fucking liar.
I play games, not plastic boxes.
>Steamdrone
literally non sequitur
>buying into the 'minimalist' lifestyle
>Yes goy, don't own anything.
Ok kike
Try playing any ubisoft tom clancy game
Is there something your plastic boxes do that all the games on my hacked PS3's hard drive don't?
The context in OP's case is he being on the PS4, but he wasnt necessarily talking about the PS4 being bad. He means new game bad
As somebody who lives in a rural area that can’t get broadband, only a mobile hotspot from Verizon or some garbage like Hughes Net, this the main thing that killed my PS4 gaming (outside of the disc drive failing). I don’t want to get a game that requires a 20 GB day one patch that I’ve then got to drive 45 minutes to my sisters house fo jack her internet. When I was when in college it was fine because I had broadband. Tech companies have basically said fuck you if you live in an area without high speed internet. That’s fine I guess, it just kind of sucks. This is why the Switch has unironically become my favorite console right now. I can buy the carts and usually have the full game unless the developers are Jews who make you download half the game instead of making it on a higher capacity cart. Even if I have to download a patch, it’s usually no more than 1 GB, which I can actually handle on my Verizon hotspot. Nintendo is the only company I feel like has retained some of that feeling of how gaming used to be, even if the switch is admittedly underpowered in comparison
Provide an actual physical object with a physical disc and sometimes a physical manual
I don't see how any of that relates to playing the video game. Maybe having a manual but they phased those out pretty early in the generation. You're lucky to get a single sheet of paper with a DLC code on.
>I don't see how any of that relates to playing the video game
It improves the experience, something a money grubbing scab wouldn't understand
>no seriously trust me putting a box on a shelf in a basement makes playing the game so much better!
hoarding can be a serious problem user, you should examine why you are collecting valueless junk
PC games are better than ever. 8th gen consoles are just gimped PCs in fancy boxes.
The only console worth owning now is the Switch, and that too just for its exclusive titles.
The physical object is nice on a shelf, the sensation of taking the disc out and putting it in the machine is nice, it's a physical object not reliant on flimsy digital bullshit to work. You should examine your mental illness that is digital only, it's serious.
>PC games are better than ever
Why are you lying?
The PC 1st party scene is dead, you get shitty console ports and shitty indie games.
what games are you playing that it seems to be a regular problem to you
Only thing i don't like about the PS4 is it won't let me record shit from imported games
>buy shitch
>day one console update
>console unusable until you patch it
"Dude games are better than ever, no one cares about your boomer games"
I don't have anything against hanging onto your physical copies because it's more reliable than digital downloads, but by the time a console is cracked and you're guaranteed to be able to play every game forever it's time to start wondering why you are so obsessed with nothing more than putting a disc in a drive.
"Indie" is a meaningless label by this point. A lot of "indie" stuff is double-A levels of quality/content, and much of it is excellent.
Console ports are excellent now, it's not like the 6th or 7th generation where they were guaranteed ass.
DUDE WHO WANTS PCS WHEN YOU CAN JUST POP THE DISC IN A CONSOLE AND PLAY LMAO!
>"Indie" is a meaningless label by this point.
No it's not. It's a 100% signifier of a game being HOT SHIT. There isn't a single indie game worth playing in existence.
>A lot of "indie" stuff is double-A levels of quality/content,
No it isn't, child.
>RDR2 runs like ass
>GTAV runs like ass
>Ubisoft games run like ass
Is this thread implying that multiplayer pc games don’t have updates or something?
Look, you're a kike, you don't understand anything but money. There's no point explaning it to you when $2 is something you even notice.

Such is the life of a PCúck!
Consoles always wins baby!
>friend gets a 100 MB/s internet
>PS4 cuts the speed by more then 60%
lel. To be fair, though, the PS3 had notoriously shitty Internet receiver.
the same happened to me but on a 300MB/S fiber optics internet.
whenever we booted the PS4 the internet would be fidgety and slow as fuck.
Could be DLing torrents on 3 different PCs no problem at other times.
I like good video games, like the PS1,PS2, SNES,N64,Gamecube. I don't waste my time on indie garbage when I have endless amounts of 10/10 classics to play.
>he still thinks it's about the money
based
For you it clearly is, you so scared of shelf space you probably live in a shoebox to save money
fuck that sucks dude. I genuinely feel sorry for you. Couldn't imagine not having high speed internet and trying to play video games in this age. I pretty much only play Multiplayer in every game I play nowadays.
The gaming industry as a whole has generally made it a habit to shit on the consumer in almost every regard.
