I truly hope we keep things on physical formats. Going to all digital distribution worries me because not only will I never own the game, bring it a friend's house, sell it, etc... but I doubt these companies would even lower their asking price.

I feel it will end up as a "Pay more, get less" scenario.

If they do this and games like Final Fantasy release for $35 however, that's a bit different, but everyone with an idea of how this has been going so far knows full well the games will release at $50-60, just as they do now.

Only difference will be that this time you don't really "own" what you paid for.

Steam has sales all the time.
