Yeah, one year ago, for a non first party game, at a time when Play Anywhere was only a thought... 

Also, it takes around 60 dollars to find a one TB external (proof, I own one). In between this and obtaining what's in a way two games for the price of one, it makes more sense to buy the digital version instead. There's less incentive to buy physical when digital downloads are half the cost. The reason behind my predictions lies in how MS has actively promoted digital sales over physical ones. Third party devs are not as lucky. After all, omitting third party games which aren't selling a lot, why the hell, for some odd reason, might this console still be outselling it's multimillion selling system? How are the guys at Redmond selling less games than before yet more consoles for some odd reason? 

Besides, considering this GoW was a lot better than the previous ones in some ways, I find it incredibly weird the game hasn't sold an awful lot. Because you know, this drop seems too sharp to be a decline in prominence. 

And for some reason does it cost a lot more to find a internal drive?

No it isn't two games for the price of one, sorry. But having the same game available in two systems doesn't magically turn it in 2 for 1, unless you want to count PS4 games 3 for the price of one since you can stream to PSVita and PSTV.

Half the cost where? I'm yet to find a new release that were any cheaper digitally than physical.

MS actively promote it because they cut the middleman and get more profits and lot less costs.

Now X1 is outselling which multimillion selling system? There is like 2 years since the last formal update MS gave on the numbers.

Halo and GoW have had a very sharp drop, and it makes little sense saying "ow it actually sold more than the previous version, because trust me the digital ratio is 70%"

No, there's no incentive to fill up a hard drive... Because you know, you'd only have one... I save my games on external HDDs and then use them like game cartridges. 

Really, as far as I know that was the very definition of 2 on 1. As far as I know if you want a Skyrim on PC and PS4, you have to buy two copies. Streaming doesn't compare to actually running the bloody game. 

You obtain two games and it costs one. Half the price. 

We are not discussing their financial reasons, only why people might prefer it (at this point, if it's an exclusive with Play Anywhere, it's a no brainer unless your internet connection's slow or your PC cannot run it anyways). 

The Xbox 360. NPD alone tells us this console has not stopped outperforming it's very successful predecessor. It's been doing this since it was released. It literally makes no sense whatsoever that more people buy an Xbox One yet they are playing less exclusives than the 360. Hence why I insist the digital attach rates must be higher. Make sense of the contrast between higher console sales and less disc sales and you'll realize either a lot of people bought their Xbox One for aesthetic purposes or they are buying these games digitally. There literally was no other reason.
