I respect Scott for rerendering Season 1 episodes with the slimmer border. Nice touch
Season 1 Remastered
the definitive edition lmao@@mr.stuffdoer8483
its a neat touch, but its not re-rendered or anything, its just the episode, assumedly downloaded from youtube, but zoomed in so it's slightly (but un-noticably) lower quality than the original
@@chao2battle I don't see why he'd download the videos from youtube, he has all the original project files so it would only make sense to be rerendered (could also be zoomed, but by using the already-exported projects to save on time)
@@AONKthat is unreasonable. These videos take up alot of room... I could easily see one video being upwards of 100gigs of footage... easily
Seeing the last video be his earliest is like playing the Legend of Zelda games chronologically and realizing the 1st NES game is near the end of one of the split timelines.
That's why you always win on the pc. The games i care about I'll back up, and crack so i can play anywhere if i need to. And hell if launcher XY goes under tomorrow and i can't download the game anymore? That's fine gives me moral license to torrent it, then store it. As long as you have some control digital ain't all bad.
@@bastardgoosewtf are you talking about?
@@KoenDoesThingslet him cook
There is no timeline
@@rootyThere is no brain in your skull
Someone needs to tell Scott that 55 minutes is not a "snippet"
It's the only snippet I care about
Scott can show me his snippets any day
So 3 hours, got it
You're a snippet.
It's multiple snippets.
Just remember, if something "makes sense on paper", paper is an age-old physical media
The japan physical copy thing, i think it’s because japan has a law where if you sell physical copies it has to be complete on disc and cannot require internet download
Oh, thats kinda counterproductive.
What if the game's too big to fit on it.
2 disks. Red Dead Redemption 2 and The Last of Us 2 did it.@@icravedeath.1200
@@icravedeath.1200Then learn how to compress your files better buster.
@@LampHatScott maybe I'd shell out extra money to make it a limited edition physical print so I can charge for 100 gig discs with the game being 99 gig just just for lols.

Thanks bro!
This channel is basically akin to when we’d watch TV shows on cable; we’d watch reruns of our favorite shows on TV during the week while we waited for the next new episode to air on Friday or the weekend.
Or next day/week. Xmen was my most anticipate show for me.
"So naturally, Wario's next" still one of the best lines in his videos
I'm never getting a digital only console. They say the cloud is the future? Count me out of that, man.
next gen will be no choice, count my words the new future consoles will not have a disc drive
Nintendo will probably to at least one more console that supports physical media after that who knows? @@HUYI1
@@HUYI1this aged like fine wine 😂
@@HUYI1
Right exactly
That's the future whether we like it or not
Only way to avoid it is just keep playing the older consoles
@@HUYI1eh I don’t know. I don’t know if Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo would want to fully make that change and make physical gaming (aka another way to put money in their pockets) obsolete. I could definitely see the digital versions becoming the new “default” version though.
You forgot to mention Sony's worst example of digital stores, PS Mobile, which was shut down in such a way that rendered the games you downloaded and paid for, unplayable.
Was that for the Xperia Play?
don't be so soft on Nintendo they screwed over Wii owners in the same way with virtual console, gamers lost hundreds, if not thousands of dollars due to Nintendo's greed and choices, i will never ever buy digital from Nintendo, no matter what
@@occono3543 yes correct, thankfully the library has been preserved, but with cloud gaming it will far more impossible to do so in the future
@@HUYI1You can still download anything from the Wii Shop Channel that you already own to this day.
"Man, remember when things were worse? I miss that."
When is the digital gaming industry gonna realise that Scott just wants a box with Mario on it?! When will the tyranny end?!
when you stop voting for government
To be honest, from a retro gaming perspective, I'd rather see the entire game on the cart or no cart at all.
AMEN!!!
Fr, I HATE seeing a new Nintendo Switch game announced, and in ALL the promo box art, there's no "download required" sticker, until the game comes out and unboxing reviews show that dreaded "surgeons general warning: game requires download" sticker on the bottom. I absolutely hate that.
@@fearlesswee5036Then there's Star Ocean Second Story R where the NA copy says download required when it actually isn't.
I always prefer full carts but honestly having a cart means people without accounts can play too and that's crucial most often, It sucks It eats so much space and happens so often but It's needed because you can't use codes at all without accounts
I’m not giving up my physical media till they take it from my cold dead hands
Not only was this VERY entertaining, but it should open ALOT of eyes to what gamers would be losing if they embrace and adopt this "Digital Only" future. VERY well done, sir! Physical for life!!!
🤓
I may very well do in some cases. Prices for some physical copies has only been increasing over the months on Amazon rather than decreasing.
I think the idea of the physical release for online games is so parents/grandparents have something other than a piece of cardboard with a code printed on it to give their kids. For example, I don't know if an elderly grandparent would understand how a download code for a game works, but if there's a physical game case next to all the other game cases, the grandparent will understand it's the complete "thing" you need to play the game.
When I was a kid, my parents got my brother a preorder of Pokemon Moon for his birthday and the Gamestop employee gave her one of their extra advertisement boxes for the game for her to put the receipt in.
The “Stadia 🤮“ deserves a Tony Award.

scott the woz is a musical
PSP leg is an all time favorite moment for me 😂
Great video, if we summarise everything:
Pros:
+ digital sales are great for small indie companies, it means more games available for players
+ it is very easy and convenient
Cons
- for some stupid reason (aka greed) digital downloads are usually more expensive than physical ones.
- server support will eventually end and you will lose your access to your downloads forever, so technically you do not own the game.
- downloading big games can take hours to finish depending on server speed
- refunds are very hard to get (except steam)
- you cannot give your games to others or resell them
So, yeah, physical is still much better
Actually I still have my 3DS and Wii U eshop downloads. You sure about that?
@@M00nlightOfficial you can do it for now but Nintendo said it will be like this "for the foreseeable future". So, this "support" will end eventually. It is up to them.
@@M00nlightOfficial Only for the stuff you already purchased in the past when the eshops were open. You could redownload games you deleted some time after you purchased it but that's it.
Anyone who says digital is better is lying to themselves and are begging for big corporations to take their digital stuff away.
The kicker for me is the "you won't have access for very long" part. I can go get a bunch of Atari carts from like 38 years ago for a dollar or less. A bunch of digital-only games barely existed for a year or two. Existed...because they were deleted from the only form they existed in. No benefit matters for a product you don't have at all, period. Like "Oh it's convenient" to have what? thin air?
Is it too much to ask for a future where I can store all my games and consoles in a box to be opened and played 40 years later just as I did when I was a kid? I don’t think so, but the way gaming’s headed is preventing this, unfortunately.
Worse part, it's entirely triple a developers refusing to minimize the size of their games files. I can fit over 40 indie games on my switch, but oh, the Xbox can't fit call of duty and the next one? NOT EVEN JUST A COMPETITOR, TWO GAMES THEY MADE BACK TO BACK? it's rediclous and half the reason I've given up on them. They'd rather attempt a hostage negotiation to make sure you're not playing a game that competes with them through sheer file space rather than through quality. It's disgraceful to think I ever spent money on them if they treat me and my file space as the enemy
@@shadowsnake5133its not that they want huge file sizes. Its that games just get bigger and bigger as devs get more and more skilled. While some projects (FNAF SB. Cyberpunk. Etc) are corner cut to get it out by the time it needs to be. Those are less common than youd thing. They dont treat your file size like the enemy. They just are making bigger games. Which can be annoying. But it also means that the game usually has alot of detail. And that usually means its a good game. With some admittedly annoying exceptions
@@shadowsnake5133 just untrue, i have 48 games on my xbox including call of duty and gta5, and im constantly trying to make space with the maybe 32 gigs you get with a switch. microsoft has been one of the biggest supporters of playing their games on other consoles and playing other consoles' games on theirs.
@@pg28 Well I don't think everyone is asking for details in video game graphics to be one for one super realistic like the real world nor should they add too much to a game, we don't want things to be too big. What developers should be doing is just making the game simply fun to play.
@@AutZentus who the fuck is we
No way do you think you are some champion that speaks for all "gamers"
"This kinda stuff gets me off and I don't care!"
It's the occasional Scott "Are you paying attention?" lines that get me every time. No, I was not paying attention lmao
Yeah and now I can literally get a 12 year old game for full price digitally or go buy a disc for $1.99. This is Satan, you’re right Scott.
Love the chef hat since it has the continuity of older episodes
I hope that if Scott hasn't retired by 2027 that he wears the chef's hat in every episode for like a year.
What's with this Looney-Tunes ass pfp I've seeing everywhere

I am surprised someone in the US has a Zeebo haha. In my home country (Brazil) that was a perfect gift to give to a cousin that you only like ~67% of the time.
kkkk
I mained Onlive the entire time it was available. Even purchasing a console. Where I was located, the input lag actually felt negligible. The community features were really well done and joining someone immediately by watching them for a bit and then just hitting the button and joining them was incredible.The UI was some of the best Ive seen on a console in a long while and it also had the ability to clip the last bit of your gameplay, which at the time was a pretty unique experience. I cherish my time with it and the fact that I still have yet to play a service that feels as fluid as that was, makes me sad but hopeful for the future of Cloud gaming. The UI was also some of the best Ive seen on a console in a long while. I just wish I had an Onlive controller compatible with my PC so I can at least kinda relive the experience.
I have Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris on PS4 disc here in Europe. It is so weird to me why companies decide that this continent needs a disc and this continent doesn't
Interesting. Probably has to do with your Laws about the content within the game.
@@adrnacad3434 One of the reasons is the absolutely massive difference in buying power between European countries. You have some of the world's richest countries in terms of GDP per capita on the one hand vs. (extremely) poor ones like Ukraine, Moldova, several former Yugoslavian countries, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland, Greece, ... on the other. The EU made matters worse and banned geo-blocking, making it impossible for e.g. Steam to use it as a means to offer digital games at significantly lower prices in poorer EU countries. 😑

This has to be one of the best videos called "The Horrors Of Digital Gaming - Scott The Woz Compilation" ever made
I hope they remaster it at some point!
In my opinion, this is THE WORST video called "The Horrors of Digital Gaming - Scott The Woz Compilation" ever made
It’s crazy that Scott has an entire channel banking on the fact that his episodes are super rewatchable
God bless this man
scott half the time: i dont like digital but its the way of the future so i wont fight it
also scott:
2:39 you have enough knowledge to say this to somebody?
I do
That right I'm a virgin
Scott firing at all cylinders on this video. Spitting straight up facts.
Digital has some upsides and some flaws. For pros: less required space, no need to switch discs. Cons: nasty DRM, needing an account, needing an internet connection (back to DRM), can be revoked (again, DRM), and you can’t physically hold it and admire it. GOG only really has the downside of not having the game tangibly. There’s also the fact it’s Scott’s worst f**king nightmare.
GoG is digital gaming done right. You can download a completely offline installer so you technically have a physical copy if you burn it to a disc or even keep it on a large storage drive, but you can also use their launcher and have the convenience of installing and playing it directly from there.
I don't get why people are willingly choosing less.
How is needing an account a con? It takes like 3 minutes.
@@samuelsanchez6082 Because some people aren't too keen on handing corporations a bunch of personal info so they can better track and advertise to you.
With physical game releases all you need is to go into a store, pay cash and play the game offline. So it's not about convenience, it's about privacy.
Plus, the account serves to keep you in a closed ecosystem. An account requirement exists specifically to take power and control away from the customer.
Yup U basically trade ownership for convenience .
@@spectrexr1 Plus, they can permanently ban you if you do something wrong or think you did something wrong. Then its good bye games, good bye money spent on said games.
51:58 He even got rid of the outlet covers LMAO
I really hope Scott wears a chef hat in 2027…
The choice between physical and digital for me comes down solely to which is cheaper at the time. Other than sales this is usually physical.
That's true. Most physical games go down in price over the months (with some exceptions). With digital games, the sales may not be as low as you want them to be, but could be cheaper than their physical counterparts. For instance, I just brought the digital LEGO Harry Potter game for the PS4 on sale for $2.99 instead of $19.99.
Digital only: "You will own nothing and you will accept it. And we're cheap jerks."
I appreciate Scott releasing this right after the Xbox leak with the all digital Series X and cloud focused next gen ideas
what?
@@Zordyn MS uploaded a bunch of confidential documents to a public FTC portal and so people could see their plans for the next 10 years, which is a new Series X with no disc drive (but same price) and planning to have next gen be about cloud powered gaming experiences.
You are one of my favorite CZcamsrs of all time! Keep up the great work!❤
I really appreciate that Scott puts his compilations to an other channel
I don't look how generic games look. Games with "realistic" graphics all look the same. Older games were better because of their simplicity.
I think it depends on art direction. Elden ring isn’t particularly stylized it’s photorealistic but the character designs and environments are memorable and stunning despite have graphics that are far from cutting edge
Fun fact: That wasn't even the first time Sony had tried an online gaming service named PS Now. PlayStation Broadband Navigator on the PS2 had a service called Playstation Now as well, with a different logo.

Without a connection you don't play... I like the old times.
keep retro games alive is what i say 👍👍
@@HUYI1 Based, old is still gold
Seeing physical vs. digital with a thinner border makes me want a remaster of all the season 1 episodes.
Companies really have done a great job of removing fun from video games. I don't even feel like I'm missing anything anymore.
So sad you are limiting yourself. There are so many great experiences you will miss.
Backing up digital DRM-free PC games to local storage is kind of like owning a collection of physical games IMO
Just pirate every games
i love crime
Well, if the future is digital streaming gaming only, and you will never own this actual game then I will just quit gaming
we say it, but will we act upon it?
@@HUYI1I emulate and pirate so I'm definitely doing that if comes to that point
@@HUYI1prob not
@@HUYI1 I mean, I already have years worth of physical backlog for PS1 to PS5, Vita, GBA, DS, 3DS and Wii to Switch. Not considering all the Steam stuff that I never touched yet, so yeah, I am set for life at this point.
@@artur24able me and you both the same LOL
Hot take: Digital is so much worse than physical every way. For multiple reasons. If you hate the game you bought you can get your money back; if you bought it physically.
For preservation to be a consideration, you first need to have something worth preserving as a physical item. The move to digital feels... actually pretty timely, in that sense.🤔
Digital goods hold no value because you can't sell them. Its nice to be able to sell games I no longer play to use that money towards a new game.
My friend in middle school had a psp go and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. I wanted one so bad, but my parents wouldn’t let me upgrade from my flip phone. Compared to my flip phone it was mind boggling cool
I heavily considered getting one back in the day but aside from having a built in controller, it was actually a very crappy Android phone. The hardware was very outdated and the screen was poor quality among other issues. So I ended up just getting a nice Galaxy Nexus and stuck with my actual PSP for handheld gaming instead. My main reason for wanting it was for emulators but in reality, I probably wouldn't have played it that much compared to other games.
Another very topical compilation hahaha
How so?
@@Sonen10 New Xbox console will be digital only, no disc option at all
@@Cybercymbre That leak really was something.
@@Cybercymbrei think we need to let them know we dont want digital games
"Disk free gaming" is a really funny tagline because like, 50% of Nintendo consoles qualify.
Should rephrase to, "disc/cartridge/card free gaming."
I feel digital games would be better if they were packaged with physical games. Sort of like how they do it with movies. I wouldn’t mind buying a special collectors edition if it came with a digital version along with the physical copy.
This feels even more useless tbh

I LOVE SCOTT THE WOZ!!
Man, there are a lot of videos out there complaining about this stuff, but they tend to go a bit psycho in their ranting. This video lays out the shady practices of the games companies without getting dragged down to their level. Good stuff
That intro gives me cyber awareness training vibes. If you're currently in the military or were in you know what i'm talking about.
Absolutely hate digital gaming and gaming from last gen onwards to be honest. The fact that even my physical PS4 and XB1 games aren’t even full games from the beginning is annoying as hell. Eventually when servers closes down and the games are no longer able to be updated, I’ll end up with hundreds of glorified paperweights on my shelves. Hell, I’ve already got a bunch of PS3 games that I’m no longer able to update due to the updates being removed from Sonys servers. Even last week, I go to play my purchased digital copy of Twisted Metal on my PS3 and get a message about the license being expired. I paid for the full game Sony ya pricks! 🤦🏻♂️
Wow whaaaaaaaaa that's so fcn wack man
They basically saying "Sorry even though you paid for the game in full you are only allowed to play it for a few years"!?!?
@@GORILLA_PIMP exactly right man! Was so annoyed. Had to purchase it again physically at an inflated price just to play it again. I recently put in 84 PS3 games to update them all and around 30% had no updates meaning that their updates had been removed so it’s already started. Also found another game with its license expired.
@@AB_883
Wow wtf that's an outrage!!
You should make a video about this
Criticize Nintendo all you want, but you can still play every game they made for Wii U and 3DS (minus the online features) with zero problem, even if they had content updates that you never downloaded.
You really gotta admire the man's commitment to his bits... the guy literally took of his outlet covers just for a segment LMFAO
The chef hat consistency never ceases to impress me
Online multiplayer, Microtransactions, and Cloud streaming have essentially destroyed gaming.
was the start and now is the catalyst of disaster, game companies are in the now and have no intention of ever preserving current gaming media like past generations have done
Digital downloads are often critized for taking forever but strangely it takes longer for me to install a game from a PS5 disc than downloading the digital version, of course it's because of my fast internet connection but I just wanted to point it out.
Digital management is your next problem.
Let say 10/15 years from now, you want to play a specific game on that console. The online store is close and that game is exclusive on a limited time frame. Ex Simpson and Xmen arcade on 360/ps3. Can you play it or purchase it? You can try it and those games have been delisted due to Rights.
@@tr1bes delisting usually doesn't affect your purchases. I have some delisted games (The Lost Child, God Wars, Demon Gaze, Fifa18) and I can redownload them with no problem. The only exception is P.T. but it was a free demo and not a purchase anyway. As long as the servers are running there shouldn't be a problem and even about that I'm not really worried. I buy games all the time and if I really lose access some day I probably don't care that much. I expect servers for a system to run at least 20 years, if not longer. I mean I can still redownload all my Wii PSP and DSi digital games even though the shops are closed for years.
But I agree that it is a major disadvantage that you can't buy delisted games anymore but for that I still have my disc drive so I'm not missing out unless the game is digital only but like I said, I buy games all the time and I can live with not getting every game in the world.
I love steaming and was a huge proponent of Stadia and was sad when it ended.

Anytime I need a reminder of the pitfalls of modern gaming, I think back to _Chrome_ _Hounds_ , a promising near-launch title that became nothing more than a goddamn tutorial *within* its own console generation (*six* *full* *years* *prior* to end of life). 😥
Digital Gaming: Nobody wins, except for Satan.
I like digital only for small indie titles and triple A games physical it more practical that way
First the little booklets in game cases go. Now they sell cases without games. Before you know it, they will send you a letter or email saying "f*** you, pay me".......
There are like 4 games I regret not keeping physical copies of but other than that, all digital is so nice.
If we are going "digital-only', I would like to see consoles coming out with more than 1TB. Or at least a true 1TB-2TB at least
I blame Microsoft, I feel like that's the company that's pushed hard for digital gaming, and also blame them for wanting to buy out companies.
Some once commented to me, saying Xbox is like a cancer and needs dying off.
No blame the consumers who are lazy and want instant gratification with games releasing day 1.
@@adrnacad3434 I have leant one thing, when reading the terms and conditions of going all digital, the company a person is signing up to, have the ability to terminate that persons account at any time, with or without any notice, it tends to be worded that way. All those digital games lost forever.
I watched this while streaming Starfield on GeForce Now
From New Location McGee to New Locationer McGee back to New Location McGee and ending with Old Location McGee. I swear, these compilations are getting wackier by the minute!
I despise how much of an impact all this has on game preservation. Even when they started with digital games, you could by a physical copy and have the game. Now, you buy a physical copy, and you're STILL at the mercy of console makers and IP holders, because huge chunks of the games aren't ON the disc, and whatever IS on the disc is probably buggy as hell because it doesn't have the "day one patch" is is just short hand for "the stuff we should have fixed before shipping the game."
every medium has its benefits, however its when we are restricted to just a few for no other reason than monopolistic profit, we simply won't be part of it. There needs to be options, even if the options overwhelm....
NAH BRO THAT F-ZERO MUSIC HITS DIFFERENT NOW
That digital-only physical edition of Ducktales on PS3 is a piece of videogame history.
A point in history where they didn't really know what they were doing with digital releases.
The thing is, while not exactly can be compared, PCs are already been digital only for ages now, but of course, you can play around with files and keep everything forever(not even considering all the ROMs and pirated stuff).
Gfn with an Ethernet connection is so underrated.
I’m surprised Microconsoles didn’t make the cut
"Horrors" fits.
I'm still mad at Microsoft for stealing Minecraft from me, because I didn't migrate.
And for taking CoD: Black Ops Cold War from me for no reason at all.
Physical disc 4life!!!
as long as they are available, yeah, for now anyway
AD right after the gunshot at 28:41was perfect
0:17 me when i buy retro titles
You need more subscribers! Love your content!
21:30 games have been installing to the hardrives since the Xbox Era. Once the ps4 amd Xbox one came around, basically all games fully install to the hardrive before you get to play. Physical disks save no storage space on the console
I buy everything physical on consoles, but on PC we’re kinda screwed? I have a massive Steam library and it makes me wonder if a majority of my games will be playable a decade from now? That’s the downfall of digital. Steam has AMAZING weekly sales and we’re loving it, but do we actually own the game or the license? We shouldn’t have to question if a purchase is future proof in ownership 🤷🏽♂️. It’s a double edged sword.
I got stadia for free and couldn't get it to work. Before I knew it, the service was canceled
Nothing wrong with going all digital these days. You never receive the full game buying a disc these days anyway and, in the end, just acts as proof of purchase for loading the game up which most if not all, was downloaded in an update. The PROBLEM is not having older games available to purchase if playing old games is what you're into. I mainly just play the new stuff and if you paid for a game online, whether they keep or remove it from their digital store, you still own it and can re-download at any time. I own some 550+ games on the switch digitally and not a problem with any of them. As far as cloud gaming goes, yeah, we're nowhere close to that yet.
This is the reason I moved back to, and support even more so, piracy.
Scott predicted the future with the ps5 disc drive add on
When i was a kid i had a white darth vader psp that i got mad at while playing snd shot point blank with a airsoft gun and broke the screen and cried.
💀💀💀
the google stadia word throw up with water gets me everytime
My girlfriend, now wife bought me Luigis Mansion 3 a few years ago for Christmas. I didn't think she would get the digital code, or even know what that is. She got me the digital version and I went to Best Buy 3 days later and bought the physical copy.
It really doesn't feel the same to gift a digital game
How tf did she became your wife
