Physical Releases - News & Discussion Corner |OT| Physical Games Are Dead, Long Live Physical Games

After an eternity (2 years I think), it arrived.
I'm almost tempted to keep it sealed...

Congratz! Still waiting for mine to arrive :messenger_crying:

Edit: just a question: has the order status changed on the website interface or is it still marked as "Unfulfilled" for you?

Anyone get their RE2 Remake for PS5 yet and wants to share pics? I am so excited to get both my copies this weekend hopefully.

First pick-up of the year for me. The Limited Edition for Cuphead is both kinda cute and kinda meh for me, but it's also pretty mandatory, considering it comes with the DLC expansion on cart.

So I had to finally pull the trigger.

Oh, I almost missed this news about the PEGI release for Slay the Princess if it wasn't for my local video game retailer. Tetsura Games will be handling the European distribution. Probably going with the standard edition since the goodies that come with the special edition are kinda meh IMO. As for the ESRB release, it's being handled by Serenity Forge and the SKUs are slightly different than the PEGI ones.

Come on Sony…where is my God Of War (2018) physical PS5 version? Needs to sit next to God Of War: Ragnarok & the rest of PS5 collection.
 
Got just this one this week. Played the first two missions and I'm enjoying it so far. The only issue I have is with the audio mix, it's pretty bad.

Looks like VGP will be one of the international retailers who will carry the Asian physical release of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black. I'll probably go with them if no local video game store will show up with a pre-order listing for this PlayAsia SKU.

Was on my way home and decided to stop by a nearby pawnshop to see if they had any interesting games for sale. Noticed they had a copy of Mortal Shell for a tenner, so I decided to snag it.

So it looks like Gris is finally getting a retail version for PS5 this spring. There was a limited release for PS4 years ago through LRG and then a wide retail release for Switch in 2021, I think. I loved this game, and I already have it both digitally on PSN and physically on the Switch, but I think I'll double (triple?) dip for this Deluxe version. Pre-orders are already up on Amazon, and this deluxe SKU is coming to Switch as well.

Going to double dip if there is a retailer that is not Amazon

Edit: Nice!
Edit#2: sold out :-/
Edit#3: Nice!
Don't know the shop yet, but they ship to Europe for 50€ including shipping which seems reasonable.

I was just out and only got the notification that it had arrived.
Now that I see it, the package is huge, it barely fits on my desk.

Sorry for the potato quality. This is the best pic I can take right now.

Does it come with a steelbook or one of them maps? (semi OT, but I wish they would just make some mouse pad out of em as I never hang up those map posters lol)

No steelbook but at least it comes with the standard physical disc gold edition.



There has been some confusion on the part of retailers, as some retailers, at least where I order, have labeled the CE as a "download code" version, while others have not. I asked the retailer explicitly, who in turn asked the manufacturer, and all CE's come with disc, no idea why some retailers sold the CE as download code version.

For the steelbook I had to order the gold edition + steelbook separately, but it's not arrived yet.

I got Dynasty Warriors origins for ps5.
Unless there will be another print run I think it will be difficult to find it soon.
Only one retailer has it in my country at very limited quantities. I can find the most obscure physical releases without issues, don't know what has happened with this one.
 
Any news about Onimusha 2 getting a physical version for PS4, along with the Okami HD & Onimusha Warlords reprints?
 
i might be the only one buying xbox physical games. If i search a multi platform game on mercari or ebay only ps5 copies exist. :(
 
My Asia imported copy of Ender Magnolia finally arrived yesterday, and I also snagged a cheap SW Outlaws copy since it was on clearance at a local retailer.

Not only is Grounded an amazing game it also has a fantastic special physical edition. LRG put a lot of effort into this one, glad i have this in my collection now/
