future gen gaming will be GaaS (Game as a Service) based in cloud, there's no escape from it as time goes by and the tech matured

MS released a dickless diskless XboxOne, Google is already going ahead with it's Stadia, while Sony already had it's PS Now years back

So I won't be surprised if PS Now will be available worldwide when PS5 is launched

Who knows? we might even get different tier of PS+ subscription, like PS+ Silver just for online gaming, PS+ Gold for online + IGC, and PS+ Platinum for online + IGC + PS Now?

If people are wondering why it's because of this

Uh, seriously? There is a massive protest going on in America & today will George Floyd's funeral. How neutral you want them to get?

Well, that's why you are not Sony.

It's easier said than done. Sentiments are low, emotions of the people ensuring that their voices are heard is at its all-time high - and like other forummers mentioned, Sony's announcement will be drowned within. What difference does it make if the announcement is on-time or at a later date? It is not going to affect the launch of the product, it's just an announcement and that can wait.

And just so you know, this doesn't just affect America - it's affecting the whole world. People are making their voices heard, standing up against injustice and discrimination. Then again, what does privileged people like you know about these right? Oblivious and ignorant.

Sony did the right thing, respect the voices of the people. A brand is nothing without the people, always remember that.

Need to know the price for both the versions and the date.

I’m leaning more towards the digital edition.
1. I’m sure it’ll be significantly cheaper. Perhaps by USD100? I estimate digital version to be USD 499. While the full version is USD 599.
2. More symmetrical design
3. 90% of my games are digital anyway.

For game shops, their revenue for physical disc is going to fall.

as long it solved the loud sound from ps4 pro when playing certain games i am ok with the size and design.
