| daredevil.shark said: 1. I dont trust Sony / MS / Ninty with digital. Their price is not right compared to steam. Just look at them. 2. Still, in steam even if the hardware dies there is no tension. But in consoles its an issue despite having backup. This is why I havent purchased PS+ or digital stuffs from PSN. 3. I know many people who lost lots of digital games because their accounts were suspended because of hacking. Saw a guy who playfire who lost £2000 games because his account was compromised. 4. I am old fashioned. The appeal of owning retail copy is just awesome. None can replace it. |
2. and 3. I can't comment on. On 1., I do agree: they tend to overprice games, but there are times that they put right prices on digital-only games (think of exclusive-digital only games on each console, for example). It's either purchasing it them or no purchasing them at all.
And on 4., I am old fashioned too. I love retail; but what happens with these digital-exclusive only games? There's the problem :P
