For the past few days I've been thinking about the performance of PS4 games. So I have a question for everyone. Do PS4 disc games have better performance than PS4 digital games?

Nope. Digital games have faster load times, and produce less heat and noise when run on the ps4 onsole

It's the same... only difference is loading times.

So the loading time is different.. what about the graphics? Back when I had a PS3, I had Resident Evil 6 on it, both a disc and digital. I noticed the graphics looked a little different.

Graphics should be the same. After all the game was programmed before it was stored in the disc or made into a file for digital distribution. Physical discs and digital copies of games only differ in terms of distribution method, but they are programmed the same.

If there is any difference then it likely comes from a bug in the digital copy file or a damaged disc.

If digital games on PS4 have grapical bugs, etc, will they be pached? I plan on getting Resident Evil 5 for PS4, but idk if I'll go disc or digital.

For games like GTA the digital and disk have the same load time. Like once finish with a heist it loads for a long ass time.
