PS: Internet, please stop saying digital distribution, all games are digitally distributed whether online or on discs.

 

No, they are not. Digital distributing is an industry accepted term which means providing content and information over the internet. This is like people claiming that games are all CG. While this is true, CG is accepted and understood as being pre-rendered in the context of games.

DVD, Blu-Ray, UMD etc. are all digital formats, so I don't really see how online distribution can be any more digital than that.

I realize it's probably too late, but somehow I still wish people would use a proper name for online distribution.

 

 

CG refers to computer graphics in general, yet in gaming people only use it to describe pre-rendered/cinematic scenes. Also, your logic is flawed, even though DVDs store digital data, the discs themselves are tangible objects, not digital. How the data on the disc is stored is completely irrelevent.



Good news Everyone!

I've invented a device which makes you read this in your head, in my voice!
