I think whats amazing is the digital sales, which looks like is starting to be very important in online MP games. I think Destiny was around 50% on digital at launch. But yeah, not sure I would get a boxed copy if the code is in a box, doesn't seem worth getting it from a collectors point of view. I dont really know why they did a physical version. Anyway, its sold amazing, and looks like a good deal by MS to get in there first. Not sure it'll push/sell more consoles but from a high profile title, its a good move. |
Yep, destiny had a 50% digital attach ratio...
And about the box for the code, allows the game some shelf exposition so it may push a little more sales. Those 70k sales even if low is added profit.
