2 big things I hate about digital:

1) Licensing Issues. There are some games now that you can't find on PSN/XBL anymore because of it and will forever be gone. (No more TMNT Turtles in Time remake, Marvel vs Capcom etc..)  You'd think with digital they'd be on there way longer than a physical game on shelf in a store, but not always the case.

2) I just don't care about my digital games even when I'm really trying to. I find it hard to care for a game when I can't physically see it. I've bought tons of digital games, games that I'm really excited for, on PSN and Steam. But I have trouble playing/finishing them because I don't physically see them I feel like I don't have this attachment to them.

Main reason I love physical is because I actually get to have it, I know I actually own it because I see it and I can do whatever I want with it (trade it, lend it, sell it, mainly display it etc..)

But when it comes to 'portable devices' I'm perfectly cool with digital because you're suppose to be on the go with a portable device so you don't want to carry alot of stuff (especially music of course). I still dont mind owning physical portable games (ie. 3DS/Vita)

One thing I do love about digital is PSN Flash Sale and Steam sales. Oh man I love those!

I still buy digital games when its cheap but recently it's also because I'm not too sure if I'll like it enough to have a physical copy that might not go well with my collection lol If it's good then ill end up buying the physical as well.
