| prayformojo said: Alot of people will give you good reasons for either but I like to simplfiy it. Buying physical means your games and console are seperate. This allows you both ownership of said games and freedom to do what you want with them. It also says that when your console dies, your games won't go with it. When the servers go offline down the road, they will remain yours, in full working order. There is safety in that. Really, the ONLY pro for digital is not having to drive to a store but, don't you do that anyway? As far as the 20 SECONDS of time it takes to put a disc in the console... come on. You know? If we're getting to the point were we can't even get OFF a couch, we are in more trouble as humans than we realize. haha |
Some other Pros:
- less Noise, A Disc Drive is louder than a HDD
- If you loose or break the Disc it's useless. If you accidentaly delete your digital game you can redownload it
- You can make legal Backups (At least on the WiiU). So if your HDD breaks and the Server is down, you can use your Backup-HDD
- Faster Loading Times
- Easier Transportation and Storage. 50 Digital Games are easier to transport or to store than 50 Retail Games.
Of course most if not all mentioned Cons in this thread are valid too. However I decided to go digital unless the retail copy is cheaper.
