Oh c’mon. This was hardly a last minute publisher decision following Sony’s announcement.

    Can you put it in and play it (single player or LAN) without an internet connection?

    A disc that holds over 50 GB?

    I have had at least one game where the disk was just a Steam download key, so technically a physical disk (for your collection!) but also all the disadvantages of digital distribution.

    Came here to say this.

    It isn't the disc that's important, it's the ownership - the ability to make use of your investment without depending on the manufacturer after the sale.

    It feels like almost nothing works without Internet connection anymore..
