Digital or Disk?

[NYGiants4Natic]

It might not be a hack directed at PSN and it is Ddos attack but bottom line is that it has gone on all day and most likely PSN will be down tomorrow for maintenance

So 2 days of no PSN?

Regardless of hack or not the attackers are picking on Sony like they always do and right now MS is working fine as I am finishing my early access

Wanted to jump on BF4 on PS4 and get ready for Madden tomorrow as I am getting copy early in morning but this is upsetting to say the least

I was flip flopping between xbox 1 and ps4 version big time but finally decided on ps4 digital. not to get into a console debate just bottom line was madden 25 was crisper on ps4 and I really wanted to be safe not sorry.
Now all this has gone down with psn im thinking maybe just go with xbox 1. I dunno I guess I can give it a while yet and see if its resolved.

And **** like this is why I go disk. PSN down today and scheduled maintenance tomorrow is going to make it pretty tough to download the game and have it ready for midnight play tomorrow night.

DoS literally means Denial of Service - single system

DDoS literally means Distributed Denial of Service - multiple systems doing the attack

I've never purchased a digital download of a game before. I purchased EA Access, and already have the game downloaded, so does that mean at 3:00 AM EST i just have to go to my games and its going to automatically have te full game there?

obviously you have to buy the game but from what I understand you dont have to download anything on xbox 1 if you already downloaded ea access. it should just work at midnight or whatever time.

Once 3AM strikes, your game will be available. The early preview wasn't basically the pre-download.

Gonna go disk this time. I fell like disk as better frame rate than digital for some reason. Plus I always enjoy unwrapping and opening the game after I buy it.
