>>340821790
You don't have to update on PC either and then you are not forced to pay for online, your point?
>>340822306
What kind of connection do you have? At 100Mbps it should take longer than 30 minutes
>>340823545
But you do. Those updates are part of the 60GB download.
>>340824434
You don't, if you don't want to just pirate the games. Or did you think PC is limited to Steam only or what?
>>340824772
>Or did you think PC is limited to Steam only or what?
Unless you're playing 10 year old games, yes. It is.
>>340825043
There are games older than 10 years on steam right now
>buy a game from the store
>No app to scan the game and have my ps4 turn on and download the necessary files before I get home
Would be a nice feature.
>>340825043
shiggy diggy
>>340825097
And your point?
>>340823775
80Mbs, it does take longer than half an hour, I was incorrect because I was too lazy to do actual calculations. I forgot where I was posting.
Why don't these shitty ass threads get deleted instantly
>>340827992
People like these threads, it's like a religious debate where you mock the infidels and feel good about yourself because you're going to Heaven.
the longest download i ever had was gta5 and it took 30 minutes, roughly the same amount of time it would take me to walk down to gamestop and buy it.
>>340828642
and then come back home and install it

>>340832207

>>340820768
it actually takes me less time to download 50GB than going to the closest game shop and back
>>340821485
Oh shut the fuck up.
ban platformwar threads
>>340832320
if you have the games installed you can still play them in offline mode

Yeah you can fuck right off with the pc cuck memes I don't even know if I can enjoy the game after this bullshit.
>>340830390
Try getting hfc cable mate.
>>340820768
>it plays instantly
don't you have to install the game on the system?
>>340832320

piracy
good luck pirating on your new console :^)
>>340832709
>He thinks he owns his steam games
Steam owns them and lets you play them
So no steam no games
>>340832757
Theres something to do with the cable pole being too low and obstructions from trees, they wanted 5k to install a pole on my property otherwise they wont do it. Feels pretty fucking shit man.
>>340832834

>>340832842

You buy a license to play them, you also don't own shit.

if people have uploaded games after cracking the software protection who says someone isnt going to make a program that will do it with the games already installed on your computer

It works the same for physical media, you still only have a licence to play them. It's basically a meme to point this out, how are you still not aware?
>>340820768
>>put CD in console
>>it plays instantly
Yeah maybe up until the 6th generation.
Nowadays every time you get a new game for a console even if it's physical you have to sit through a 2 hour update.
With PC, unless you have a shit computer from 1998 installing games off steam should take you less than half an hour unless it's an MMO or some massive RPG.
Get your shit right faggot.

On PC you wait minutes not hours. This isnt 2002 with 56k.

Are we pretending its 2004 itt?

>Skill based
Can we stop with this
>>340834210
Teamwork is a skill and that's why even the best Quake tourney players had trouble with CS competitions and didn't simply win entire games by themselves.
>>340834045
rural britbong here, OP has a point
>>340832901
Shit that's unfortunate mate. Hope nbn comes along some time soon. I still have 2-3 years before its forecast here but get basically the same speeds on current cable (download atleast). Maybe if you pruned back the tree limbs that might be in the way it could be cheaper?

you realize that you can just cancel this if you already have what its wanting to install right ?
