You have a point there on the PC scene but I have never been a PC gamer so I wouldn't know.  All I know is that I love the feeling of holding a physical copy and keeping it for collecting purposes especially JRPGs. Also my 20 meg internet is not a fun way to download PS4 titles. Even updated take long.

Oh I'm totally with you on holding a disk over digital. I'm even resorting to ordering a couple of titles from USA amazon because they only did they digital over here :(

I love collecting games (maybe too much lol).

I have 70+mb internet but I still dont want to buy a digital game and then download it, just feels wrong to me, I am old school on that, just a shame the boxes arnt as fun as they used to be.

I mean for movies and music I've changed my mind a bit, over the years I had purchased many a dvd/music cd.... I've converted dvd movies to Plex, and music I'll only get it from amazon and it's mp3 playable on any device. Still buy blu-rays though. So yeah movies/music dont hold that value in terms of boxes, but for games Im still 100% behind boxed copies. I dont mind buying old games from GOG... moved away from steam services (again non drm)

Agreed ...and yeah instruction booklets and decent packaging are a thing of the past for the most part. BotW the 59.99 version has no booklet just the pedestrian switch plastic case and the game card....gone are the days of the golden cartridges and color booklets with character and story descriptions ...oh I miss the 90s
