Yeah disc version still feel the right way for me. I don't why though as I'm quite happy to have Steam on PC and don't even question it.


PC games on Steam get crazy discounts more often so that's understandable. Console games digital codes on amazon/gamestop very rarely get discounts, even have different pricing release time. Cyberpunk for Xbox is $49 physical disc, and $59 digital code. When the PS store or Xbox store starts a sale, usually the discounted games are more than a year old so I end up having already finished them.

There's discounts on digital codes but you have to look at other places besides amazon and gamestop.    CDKeys for example has Cyberpunk for the Xbox at €49.59, so yeah.   

 

*edit* Well, changing to currency to USD it does go up to $59, lol they're going with the exchange rate, or something else funky is going on.

I'll probably get both, but I'll wait for price drops, slim versions (hate having big consoles) and more games to come out. I have a big library of games which I haven't played. I still have to play Ghost of Tsushima, Spider Man, God of War, Detroit Become Human, Death Stranding on the PS4. Tomb Raider, Spyro on Xbox (But my Xbox One just broke down). 

 

I'm also planning on getting the disc based versions just because we never know when we may get a good offer on a game.

 

To the year's end I'm eyeing on CyberPunk

I'm having a hard time even figuring out what to buy. I don't really get deep into PS4 exclusives... so XBox seems obvious but I rarely play games on either unless I'm in the living room.

 

Also plan on building a gaming pc for the living room; so not sure I'll need a console outside of the exclusives.

I have just received my PS5 last week :)

I hope you enjoy it, what did you think of the Dualsense with Astrobot, I thought it was fantastic and hope more games use the triggers in a similar way?

It is generally great but I bought it early especially for cyberpunk 2077 and this game is a disaster. I was even thinking of a refund but when I realized that I am still in a lot better situation than those who are playing the game of PS4 or Xbox One, I changed my mind. I hope CDPR will release the full PS5 version as soon as possible so I can enjoy this game with huge potential to its max.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
    • you can also do this with this tool: PowerSettingsExplorer made by mbk1969 at 3dguru forum.. I found it by accident researching on modern standby and annoying quirks of it in 2022
