I was always a fan of consoles, everything is packaged nicely and you only had to worry about buying the game itself.
Eventually I ran into the problem where Sony prevented me from starting a DLC I bought and downloaded simply because the base game is validated for a different region. Umm I'm sorry I live in a different country now?? Couldn't get their AI chatbot to help with refunds either (but honestly shouldn't they prevent purchasing in the first place...)
