SONY SAYS GAME DISCS STILL HAVE FUTURE

Sony's Jim Ryan  just said to IGN that Game discs will still be used in PlayStation 4 console and will be the dominant source of delivering  games. He also said that we are have moved over to wider connected console which is Sony's PlayStation Network also known as  PSN. 
  

PLayStation network is online service from where you can rent and download games and play multi player with your friends or people around the world. Sony says PSN not now , but will take over in Future. It is said that it is more secure way to play games rather than buying disc because, a digital media disc is more likely to be pirated and or sold again after using it. Sold games are then resold at cheap prices hence, this cycle carry's on. 


  Developers lose a lot of money by this process and can not generate revenue that they should.   This topic debate is for another day. Ryan also said that why game discs will still be the future because PS4 games will take up so much space that it would not be possible for everyone to download them from PlayStation store. Some of the countries in world do not have access to that high speed internet hence people will not be able or to download such massive game data, even if they are it will take ages to download one game. This is one the reasons Sony thinks that Digital media will be the future.  PlayStation 4 will run Blue ray disk drives that has data capacity over 45 gigs and if you go to southern Europe standard internet connection can take up to 3 days which is not fun at all.
