Digital PS5 makes you have to rebuy any PS4 games you want to play.

lol no BC talk. Oh good, score one point. I have a radeon 6700xt and every couple of months will TRY to get a PC game going and the number of steps and special configs and mods and fixes I have to apply is fking ridiculous.
I agree. Between Windows XP and Windows 11, I lost the ability to play:

Battlefield 1942
Battle for Middle Earth
Battle for Middle Earth 2
Rise of the Witch King
Nba live
Tiger woods golf
Madden
Nascar
Worms 2
Worms Armageddon
Oregon Trail 3
As well as several others I'm sure I've forgotten.

Some of these are fixable (finally got BFME games to work by downloading and patching...but it took hours and hours).

Crazy huh? Amazing they went the digital route like other movie streaming services or iTunes would be a better comparison.
I think the problem is not going the digital route but rather having such a lackluster model for backwards compat. Xbox for example, allows you to play games from even the OG Xbox digitally but Playstation makes you pay for them on the PS+ ultimate tier.

I don't see this mentioned enough, regarding one huge benefit to Digital purchases.

If your household has 2 Playstations, you link your accounts to both, and whenever you buy any Digital game, the 2nd Playstation will have full access to it. For example, I play coop/online games with my wife. Every time we want to try any game, I only need to buy one digital copy and we both can play. And even single player games, I would buy on my account and my Wife will have her own to play if she wanted. We never have to wait on each other to play any of the games.

In this scenario, essentially all my games are buy one, get a copy free.

And seriously, when you have a huge game library, it's just way too convenient to swap between games without needing to run around loading discs. On that point, of the 2 PS5s in my household, one is the disc version. It's only used to play old games... which personally, hasn't been often. Pretty much 95% of my games are digital.
Yes exactly, I do this when my brother and I want to play co-op or share ps4 games, I left my main account on his ps4 console, I subscribed to PS plus, he reaps the benefits of the digital library without paying for plus, its a great benefit for households.

Any performance benefits between disc and digital version?
For the lazy, you don't have to get up and change physical discs when you change games.

I don't know about you but when I buy a new generation product I like to play new generation games people get stuck in the mindset like you those are the same people that have a backlog all the way to PS1

I'm still trying to find a reason to buy a ps5 to replace my ps4, besides slightly bbetter load times. Are the graphics improvements even noticeable during actual gameplay?
Graphics are better and performance is better. However I have no complaints about my PS4 performance and still use it in the bedroom.

I was a bit disappointed at first as with the exception of Demons Souls there weren't really any games for it that I couldn't have played on my PS4. That's changed a bit lately - there still aren't tons of them, but there are some really good ones that are PS5 exclusive. If I were considering one today I'd search for a list of "games only available on PS5" and see if there was anything there that pushed me to spending hundreds on a new console. I bought it originally on the hype, and most of the games played here on it are PS4 ones.

My favorite part of the upgrade was the controller honestly. Fits my big hands a lot better and just feels like a more premium device.
