So Digital Buyers get Screwed?

Both PS4 and XboneONE will allow you to trade in physical games towards another one. But what if you prefer to buy digital? What incentives are they giving those people?

Huh? You've never been able to trade in digital games. Why would you expect that?

Either I don't understand your question, or I don't understand your confusion.

Technically you don't burn gas or time going to a location to buy the game. That might offset the trade in perks.

There is your perk digital man!

Th incentive is you get to sit on your *** while you switch to another game. Maybe a cheaper price?

Re: So Digital Buyers get Screwed?

ive always thought when games started hitting digital download on launch days that they should be 10 or 15 bucks cheaper.

Probably would be if they didn't have to pay MS or Sony a licensing fee.

I think this as well...I'd buy digitally if it was cheaper. As it is I get too much money back from Gamestop for a used game to not go that route.
