| CrazyGamer2017 said: Rise of the Tomb Raider costs 16 euros on the PSN, so why should I pay 29,99 or 39,99 in a store? If a game is the same price on both digital and physical copies I'm going with physical of course but this happens less and less frequently. Digital sales offer better prices than physical sales. And true that you don't own a digital game but these days you don't really own a physical game either. Most physical games are now incomplete and you must download day one patches to make them work properly. |
Pay attention man: Rise of the Tomb Raider IT'S NOT cheaper on the PSN than retail, it's AT THE MOMENT cheaper on the PSN than on retail, but the standard price is 59,99 € (if you see, it's the crossed price written) on the PS STORE, while in shops you can ALWAYS at any moment, find it at 29,99 euros, and the special edition with artbook and some download codes.
It's important because you have to consider the standard retail price and not a standard price with a momentary special prices that will last some days.
And all this without considering the used market: for example I could Purchase Ni No Kuni II PS4 at my local store for just 39,99 € or, yesterday, I bought Yakuza 6 preowned at 39,99 € (essential art edition). And I can still resell them if I want (but are great games so I will keep them). So, really, digital has sense only with 75% discount off (like Rise of the Tomb Raider that you mentioned) :)
