Maybe some people have ****ty internet? You never know when you may need to download a game again. **** happens.

I'm getting my physical copy a day early. Can't get digital early.

Would that fall under odd advantages as well?

I'm digitally downloading it (simply cause there's no way anything Dodgers can be in my room) my question is for it to fully pre load and be able to play at 9pm PST on 3/30 will it fully install in rest mode or does my console have to be on?

I've had a game where it will download in rest mode but wouldn't fully install until I had my console fully on. I believe it was Madden

(picture removed due to strong immaturity)

Definitely odd how getting it 1 day early is worth the 1 year wear & tear on your console from playing that CD over and over.. Not to mention switching the cd out if you own more than 1 game. Yeah totally worth it.

meanwhile the digital is playable at midnight and pre-loadable 2 days before. What more do you need?
The only thing it doesn't do is serve you tea in bed, but I hear they're working on that.

My understanding is it can install itself when in rest mode.

I know you just jabbing and being sarcastic.... but future reference, be careful how and what you say in sarcasm to Green, Purple, and Red named people.

duly noted, will do my best to color-profile responders from now on, just like a any good TSA agent.

Its odd how you think it would cause any wear and tear. The game fully installs and plays off the HD. It only spins when you first start it.
