How many times do you need to be proven wrong before you chill with this nonsense about the console industry morphing into steam? NPD already showed that 75% of core gamers PREFER physical. That's right... 75%. This means that your views on the issue are WAY out of touch with reality. 

You and anyone else can prefer digital. It's your money, and I don't care. But you have to understand that it's not the people buying phyiscal that is out of touch... it's you. 


The fact that it's only 75% of gamers on consoles proves my point if anything. 25% of people have already moved onto digital on consoles that are primerily physical consoles. 100% of people bought CDs until MP3 players, mainly the iPod, killed them. Once the first digital only console from one of the big three is released, which will be the NX, physical gaming will die on consoles just like it's died for over 125 million active Steam users who are digital only. And Gamestop will go out of business shortly after because it refused to adapt, just like Blockbuster before it.

Which, if it wasn't already obvious by my wording of "consoles," means that your "75% of core gamers" statistic is flat out wrong. I'm perfectly in touch. Get your facts straight.
