Sony didn’t even make a modest effort to support the psp go and Xperia play. Then they have the nerve to assume everyone truly wants digital content. Video gaming implies a console and a game. Removing the actual physical game from video gaming would be like going sky diving without a parachute. The art of Photography and the actual printing process has already been destroyed now video games are next. The artist who create the games deserve to have them live on in a physical sense. It’s bad enough when companies like apple and Sony want to have FULL CONTROL over a product after a consumer purchases something now they’re going to let unfounded paranoia over piracy destroy the video game industry. I got 50 errors trying to add my gd credit card to the psn network along with countless other people, so… Besides consumers should demand choices! Sony shouldn’t control WHERE you HAVE to purchase games for the rest of your miserable life.

In reply to hush404. Since you put it that way: YES! Otherwise 4GB is nothing. I downloaded Crysis yesterday on Games on Demand in about an hour. Of course that's a better network, but the size doesn't matter in this case. It's the storage medium that does. Another proprietary expensive doomed to fail Sony format.

downloadable is fine for throw away games but, physical media is the only way for a consumer to retain any kind of ownership to the game.

4Gb is a lot when there’s no included storage AND they expect you to buy your own memory cards to put games on… 4Gb games would fill any card up in a hurry. I’m glad we’re getting physical cards to have our games on.

The time there isn’t physical medias anymore, is the time I will not play (or maybe pirate).
I just want to have my hands on something PHYSICAL, not downloading games.
