So If Consoles Went All Digital What Would You Do?

Well for me:

1. I can`t resell my games

2. If my console breaks after they shut down the servers then I just lost all my games and have no way to get them back and lets be honest its not like consoles are getting more dependable...

3. I tend to buy a lot of games like I have around 40-50 for my 360 and PS3 each, so I`m sure I would run out of memory and have to delete a game to download another, and when the servers go down all the games I have no room for are gone.  Ofc I can buy an external HDD, but that just adds another $100 to what I already have to pay.

4. I`m a collector and you can`t add digital games to a collection and put them on your shelf.

There might be something I`m forgetting, I feel like I am, but that`s the main things off the top of my head.

1. True, still may happen on the Xbox One, but current trends killed or delayed that option.  But if they are lower in price, might not be as crucial if they are not $60 game.

2. True, but if your Disk Breaks or is lost you have the same problem.  Or if your, no longer being made, console breaks, you're out of luck too. Plus you can't lose your digital games, or have to go find it to play it. (Now if companies would make statements like Amazon, that they would keep the games up forever, it would alleviate this stress.  I can't imagine a bunch of old games take that many servers.  Seems like a cost of business to me. )

With digital, your console breaks, you can just download them all again. You could also get a nice USB Flash drive and backup your games on there. 

3.  You must have awesome parties with all those games! Yes, extra hard drive for the WiiU and later the Xbox One.

4.  No contest there.  There are some pretty cool made statues/accessories.  I really like the stuff McFarland makes.  Like this 2 foot Sauron statue from Lord of the Rings.

You should make some pictures of your collections!
