Sony has stated that the access time will be close to zero, as if you are playing on a cartridge.

LMAO

That bold faced lie stood out to me, as well!

Honestly, it was arguably blazing fast, for what was accomplished.

I know because I had a lot of time to meditate on how fast it was while I waited at loading screens.

Ah, babbages, and Software Ect. I remember when video game stores had more competition than just Walmart/Target/Gamestop.

Honestly with how bad Gamestop is doing, it wouldn’t surprise me to see Walmart buy gamestop, and remodel the inside of their stores. So it’s like a store within a store. Kind of like how Walmart has Subway, and Target has Starbucks.

Except Walmart would also OWN the store within a store.

And they could move the freestanding gamestops to always be near Target. I mean I guess you could place them near Best Buy…but thats kind of like kicking an elderly woman with a walker. That is to say, no need to do anything. They’ll die soon enough.

Uhhhh…Best Buy I mean.
