JL's whole bag is 'never knowingly undersold' so you'll have an argument if you did want to a refund for the difference or a voucher.

Bit miffed at the price drops at certain retailers for BF.. It would be nice if Sony gave people a game or store credit as a thanks for purchasing at release but cant see it happening. Oh well.
I use the sellers market on here.
If Sony had any sense; they should offered at least a month of PS plus extra/premium with every console sold to a) showcase the thing and b) entice new customers into buying longer memberships.
Same here. Physical discs and such are just clutter and hassle. I don’t care for reselling.
I've been digital for a long time, with PC gaming it's pretty much the default now with Steam games etc. But I use my PS5 as a media station as well so need the disc drive for 4K Blu Ray's, the same as I used my PS4 for films, I've probably watched more films on my PS5 than I've played games.
PS5 Pro is the first digital only product I've ever bought and in fairness I do own very few actual disks for the PS5 and zero for the SX. BUT I can see frustrations when it comes to digitally owned content and in particular when content could be subscription locked. Case in point. I owned the Witcher 3 digitally and had updated to the free PS5 next-gen update but I'm now unable to play it till I re-subscribe to plus (currently a little grey lock icon in the game tiles is shown).
e: I'm an idiot, I had previously purchased Witcher 3 via a US account, it launches fine under my US account but not playable under my UK one (where I played it and had my saves!) That's a new behaviour!
However, interestingly, I can launch the PS4 version of GoT, previously installed via disk without the actual need for the disc (no drive).

Yep, same for me this morning.
After the patch Alan wake 2 is not the best showing for the system - performance in this game puts the ps5 pro on par with an 2080ti. If you grab the 4070(same price as the pro), then it runs 50% faster than the ps5 pro, or you can turn the ray tracing to 11. The pssr implementation is also poor and looks bad next to dlss in this game
Whether it's the system, engine or laziness from the developers, the end result is that the ps5 pro doesn't seem to play nicely with Alan wake 2 and the end result leaves much to be desired

There is a weird film grain thing in alan wake 2 on even with film grain off, never thought it looked as good as it should have, even maxed path traced on 4090.
I read this earlier by chance and there certainly seems to be something up with that game on this system.
It's going to be interesting to see just how well non first party games perform above the cherry-picked examples.

Alan Wake 2: how does PS5 Pro handle one of the best-looking games of this generation?
Impressive ray tracing, but question marks over performance and PSSR image quality

Can’t wait to receive mine.
Thought about it. But that’s why they waited until day 8 from the preorder folks to discount.
