Which side are you on: Digital or Physical?

Anyway long tangent, still no wiser on what percentage of AAA console games are bought digitally vs physical. One thing physical has on digital, is gifting games. I'm quite sure Santa doesn't put a voucher under the tree for dad to enter his credit card details and download Jimmie's new game ;) Although perhaps I'm old fashioned and that's what parents do nowadays.

 

I hate to tell you, but for the past few years, I've been asking mates and family to gift me Steam credit vouchers, both physical and digital codes. That and I've got friends who gift me games via Steam, humble bundle (Basil even gifted me a game just a few hrs ago), GMG etc. As long as you haven't used the code, you can gift it to someone else.

In this day and age, gifting games digitally via codes or via the stores themselves has been made that much easier than a decade ago.
