    EA isn't giving any of that to you for FREE though. It's via the paid subscription. If you don't have that subscription, none of that applies. Adding games to their vault six months after release when sales are pretty much done anyway isn't exactly giving you something. Giving you the game for half price at launch would be a deal. 10 hour demo isn't.

    When gaming eventually goes all digital and what I have said happens, just remember who said it.

      Or your kid wants the same game so instead of buying 2 copies you buy digital and game share.

          Uh yeah I do, they have to have a certain level of stock on advertised sales and they do just the bare minimum. Also, are you capable of having a civil discussion without being insulting in every comment you type?

          And just for your information, I have written to my attorney general about issues of concern. Not all of us only use our eloquent writing skills for snarky comments on video game chat boards

              Because of the shelf or that I don't think digital is cool?

              Either way, 27.

Majority of stores offer these options so you can avoid the really bad stores, the long lines and getting there at whatever time they open on Thursday.



                  I know majority will argue and disagree with me but even if discs become obsolete, digital prices will not decrease from $60 at launch. Sales are rare now and would be even more rare if there's no discs simply because there's no competition for your money. You either spend $60 on the game digitally or you simply don't buy it.



                  I don't see any publisher giving consumers any kind of discount or sale at all. This includes Sony, Microsoft, EA, Activision, Ubisoft, Bethesda, etc. All of these publishers want to give you less for more money. In the age of season passes, pre-order bonuses, micro-transactions, etc., does anyone truly believe that any of these publishers which all have investors are going to give the consumers a discount/cheaper price?



                  If anything, discs still existing is what's even getting PSN/XBLA to give you sales in the first place. Think about it, no competition, no refunds, no playable demos, etc. No publisher is going to give you a sale/cheaper price when you have no alternative to play the game. It will either be pay $60 to play the game or don't buy the game and thus, don't play. In the end, there's simply no incentive for any publisher to give you a sale/cheaper price when they know that you have no other options and most likely, would give in anyway.


                  Guess that would work but I'm not sure door buster deals are available online...... I could be wrong though

                  I always thought those were in store only other wise why do people bother to even go in store?

                    I can see consoles being a door buster but software wise, pretty sure none of the games are door busters. You can always check cheapassgamer.com for all the Black Thursday/Friday/Weekend sales. I didn't notice any games being a door buster.

                    If you're looking for expensive items like a 4K TV or something like that, then yeah, you would probably have to get to the store when it opens on Thanksgiving.

                              What are you picking up? Nba 2k has that deal every black Friday and they usually have a decent amount. At Best Buy last year they had nba 2k in at least four different areas and that was around noon.

                                We always just go to Walmart because it close by .... They usually have a decent amount of those games

                                But when you have that many people they still go very fast
