Why am I so scared of preordering digitally?!

What happens if your internet goes down? Or PSN and XBL go down? That means you can't play your digital copy, correct?

You can...it's on your hard drive, not the cloud.

Only until your bluray drive fails. Happened with my ps3 (after 5 years of intensive (2-3 hours a day) use, so it's pretty durable), i fixed it myself and the used drive i bought was 85€ i believe.

With that said, i still buy physical as well. Even though i probably should just buy digital from the us store. I pay 70€ which is 79$ while i could get it for 60$ on psn. That's 19$ (about 17€) which is basically what i get for selling 2k15. Maybe i'll just go digital next year, especially if i want to buy vc as well.

Edit: This was just a tip for myself and other non-us users. Not sure if it's completely legal though.

The Benefits of buying it digitally outweighs the negatives

1. You don't have to go to the store and leave the comfort of your house
2. You get the game early
3. You don't have to get up to change the discs


The only downside is you can't resell the game but 9 times out of 10 your going to sell it 1-2 months before 2K17 comes out. Which means you will only get like $12-$20 bucks for it , which is pointless . Your better off just keeping the game .

This is only the case if you're system isn't activated as the primary system (PS4).
