Are you also aware that physical discs are nothing more than license keys?

Quote:
The notion of "owning" a game in a physical format has also deteriorated over the years. Most physical games serve as license keys that still need to occasionally check in with a remote server. Unless you're buying a PC game without DRM (like games from GOG), or physical games for legacy consoles, you don't really own your own games.

Oh yeah, almost forgot 100% digital.

I preordered the NCAA/Madden digital bundle.

I saw Walmart is going to be selling an exclusive Steel Book so I'll probably pick that up too.

Re: Physical vs Digital Copy

I've been Digital for 10+ years now. just prefer having all my games ready without having to swap disc. on my PC I have a 8TB SSD that has all my games installed on so i never have to re-download them. my Xbox, I have a 4TB external drive, and recently got the 2TB SSD external drive for the Series X.

Physical. I love having the case and everything. That way I can trade it in to put down on next years installment.

Re: Physical vs Digital Copy

Likely a digital copy on Series X and physical on PS5. I want a physical version mostly because of the significance of college football being back. I want this in my collection. This is my most anticipated game sense probably RDR2

I’ve never had an incentive to preorder but will be picking it up on digital probably the week of release. Gave up on physical games last generation.

What do you do if your system totally crashes? I’m guessing you can sign on to a new device and redownload your games?

Definitely going with a physical copy. I want to have this one in the collection as it seem it's going to be an absolute modern classic.
