DMeister. Not everyone wants to drive 2 hours, waste $10 in gas (the cost of the game), just to find a game they can start downloading in 5 seconds from XBLM. Your really stupid to think otherwise. Downloading games is the future.
2. It'll happen. We can already do it with oh-so many PC games. Oblivion was available for download the day it came out on Steam. Why not do it for the X360? I mean, the X360s as of April have 120gb HDDs. That's enough for about 10 uber-sized games (and more likely, 20 games).
Given a year, we'll probably be seeing 250gb HDDs for the X360.
Again, downloading last-gen, or any-gen games is the most important aspect of the future economy of gaming. We've already seen the fact that on XBLA, even old games continue to sell well (Pinball FX was like #6 last week on the sales charts, despite the fact the game is about 6 months old).
It makes too much financial sence not to do, and Microsoft will make millions from this decision. Lets just hope Nintendo and Sony get on board too.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
