Sure, for now. When games get bigger and bigger. You'll be deleting or changing out HDD. Same issues. Just different situation. Even when SDD becomes a norm, and you don't really have to worry about HDD failing from the mechnical parts. A SSD can still get corrupted and has to be reformated. Have fun downloading that 2TB of media. Again, rare. But you'll be cursing when it happens. I don't think any internet is gonna love 100 games being downloaded at the same time. If that happend with me. |
I largely agree with your other points, and I absolutely prefer having the physical disc over digital. That having been said, redownloading games isn't that much of a task anymore. My speeds on Steam and Origin are quite far beyond necessary, especially when you consider downloading 1 game, and then playing that while others download. It's not like you're going to play all 100 simultaneously.
