    I’m surprised that they haven’t brought up the negative environmental effect of producing compact discs and enclosures as an excuse. This decision is pure greed driven.

    I was going to buy ps5 for gta6, but I’m not going to now. Will wait for pc release. Also not worth paying that much for a console that’s set to die in 2-3 years. (Ps6 is probably on the way)

      They’re still planning to release empty cases with codes in the box for retailers, so that tells you how much of a shit they give about that. Dunno if that will continue with PS6, though.

      Found a PS5 slim at a cashies for $350USD with an exploitable firmware, so it looks like I’ll be able to play GTA VI without giving either a dime!

      I mean, probably more sane to just wait for the PC release but there’s also the fun of jailbreaking the consoles.
