Become a star
Get the app
PlayStation
The majority of PS5 users don’t use PlayStation Stars, but that’s a big mistake. It’s a simple rewards program that allows you to earn at best certain games, and at worst store credits. Not a bad deal, right? If you have the PlayStation app, all you have to do is go to the Stars page and check out the different campaigns you can complete each month. Most just reward you with digital collectibles, but look for the ones that have coins as a reward. Some will ask you to buy games, at least you’ll get rewards for games you were going to buy anyway, but quite a few can be done for free. Usually, you’ll be asked to play certain games on PS+ that month. It may take some time, but if you save up the coins, you can make the price of the games a little cheaper.

If you wait for someone to sell the specific game you’re looking for, it’ll take a little more effort, but the price of the game could drop by half or more. However, there’s a risk of damage, so test the game before buying if possible.

Do you prefer to buy games physically or digitally?
Buying a game used to be an event. You had to save up money or wait for your parents to agree to buy the game, then get dragged to five other errands before you could get home and start playing. Thankfully, there were great game manuals to read in the car while you waited to insert the game into your console and play. We went from cartridges to discs, but now games are primarily sold digitally. PC gamers have primarily downloaded games for decades, but it wasn’t until the 360 and PS3 era that consoles allowed you to download complete games. What started as a novelty is now the primary way games are sold and bought. The benefits of digital games are clear: you can download and play them without leaving the house, they take up no space, and they can’t be lost or damaged. But there is significant resistance to this fully digital future of gaming. Issues of preservation and ownership are the main issues.
