      Hard copies are pretty useless for sports games, you never play them again after a year. and as for trading I refuse to trade in games and let Eb games make money from me and ripping me off.

      hard copy is only useful if 5 years later I decide to get the game out again. how many of you get out MLB the show 2015?

        Some of us like having a collection of the series on our shelf. Especially those steel books.

          Digital copy vs Hard Copy

          To me physical copies of sports games makes little sense. Annual releases lose their value so quickly. I have 80% of my library digitally. For me it makes sense because every game I buy I can download on my sons ps4 for free. You can't do that with a physical copy, and lastly, I like just being able to switch between games with my controller.

            Going hard copy this year strictly due to the Griffey cover.

            Otherwise, the people caping for digital make a lot of sense as it applies to sports games.

              Ramon's mentioned it during one of the streams. I believe it was the graphics one. If I recall right, it was in the 44-48GB range.

                So what if (god forbid) I buy the digital download, and my PS4 crashes and burns..... that would mean I would have to buy the game again, correct? (along with another PS4)

                  No. Once you buy it, you can re-download it as many times as you like. If you go to PS store and look under download list(drop down list under your PSN name), you will see every game you can download to your PS4.

                  Edit: I should clarify that this can be done from your computer or PlayStation app.

                    To be fair not everyone buying the game is a hardcore baseball fan that's going to play the game for 12 months.

                    For instance buying the game for 6 months(half the year) then trading it in for $25 at gamestop for RDR, could be a common theme for some people. RDR is now $35.

                      No, games are bought with your PSN. If your PS4 crashes and burns, when you log into your new PS4 with the same PSN, you can re download all of your purchases.

                      I just did this when I upgraded to the PS4 Pro. I have 5 digitally downloaded games and re downloaded them all.

                          Not only do you not have to buy the game again, as others have pointed out, but if you decide to buy another PS4 sans the first one crashing and burning you can still load it twice so you actually get two copies for the price of one.

                              Getting Digital this year and have for the past 2 years. Pre-loading is nice, Although for the past five months I've gotten the infamous WS-37397-9 error about 5 times. For those who don't know it's where PSN randomly blocks your IP. It's fixable, by manually changing MAC address which changes dynamic IP, just hoping it doesn't strike while downloading the game.

                                Why would PSN randomly block your MAC address unless you've been banned for doing something?
