The Last of Us

That's what I said

Just had first encounter with a group of 5 zombies, it was fun taking them out 1 by 1. Still bummed that this is a stealth game, was in the mood to play an action game when I got it.

 

Don't worry! There are plenty sections in the game where going out loud is unavoidable and they are f**king awesome!

Woah, the amount of cheer up you guys are giving him to complete the game is really high.
If only someone had cheered me up this much to work hard in life, I would be in NASA.

When people can push people to play UC4, this is still marginally a better game.

Game is installed already. It takes your HDD space.

Welcome to console gaming where discs can be resold. You have to swap discs because to play disc games via console, console needs to make sure you own the game. Whats stopping you from selling off that disc to someone after installing the game? The game isn't tied to your account like PC games. You can sell off the disc once done.

Also buy digitally if you don't want disc changing hassle, but you can't sell off the game.

 

Quick question. - If I've bought a game's disc version, can i download the same game via psn at a later point of time (like in steam) ?

Why, if you want to go that way, buy from Psn.

That will never be the case. Otherwise, people will buy the disc, download the digital version and then sell the disc. Edited May 30, 2017 by Sach4life

It currently works with steam, you need to tie the serial no of the game with the gamer id !

I know it works that way with steam but that is not possible with consoles because that would eliminate used game sales. MS tried to do that at the start of this gen, but people didn't like the idea. Edited May 30, 2017 by Sach4life

Ya I know it now, so will enjoy it for what it is.

 

Btw, anyway to install the game on it's hdd? Don't want to swap DVDs every time I want to play a different game...

You playing on ps3?

That was a major marketing goof-up by MS, Steam has been doing this since ages and yet no one complained. MS involved the retail chain gamestop into this too. Combined with their confusing family sharing features, the whole scheme felt as if they are trying to make a buck on used game sales , which irked the gamers,

 

On the other hand , steam markets the feature as - you buy the disc once and the game is tied to your account forever. It gives you a sense of perpetual ownership. If MS had taken similar marketing approach, I don't think they would've been criticized so bad.

Cos you can't resell that disc.

That's because your disc on PC provides a serial key which ties to your relevant steam account where you redeem it. On the console, the entire game content is available on the disc and the authentication factor is a physical disc check. You can resell the console disc, while you can't for a PC DVD. That's the biggest factor here. The whole ability to resell would fall flat if the serial redeem method would be implemented.

Elimination of game sharing irked gamers. Pc gamers don't complain about it as steam sales more than make up for that, whereas console games hardly ever go on sale and the prices are also fairly high(~4000rs). It's the possibility of resale that is a big draw towards consoles.

Also if that is the ask just buy the game of psn.

Rs 4000 is only in India due to Rs fluctuation against $. AFAIK, in the west the game prices have been the same across PS3 & PS4. Also, whatever you save on steam sales, you spend much more on keeping your hardware updated every 2-3 years. So, on the whole, you don't really save much on PC.
