I dont want games to be 100% digital. I like the physical copies to show off my collection.

LOL. I clicked through a few sites and they all seem to quote differently. WTF journalism. Do you know what quoting is?

Having options is great. DD is not gonna be a primary source of game usage for a while yet. Internet providers need to rid download caps and increase download /upload speeds across the networks. We have to wait for the countries we live in to invest in the technology for DD to be viable. Comparing this to Music industry is silly . Music files are typically Megabytes in size wheras games such as uncharted on PSN is 18GB ! downloading that corrupted music file again takes seconds. That's the level we need to get for DD to take primary position (and this is still talking developed countries )

The only thing I'll miss from EA would be SimCity, provided they're not screwing up the franchise like so many others with the new addition next year. Sadly, rumours seem to indicate they will, with all this online shit and stuff.
Anyway, I said it before already, I'll never buy any game digitally. So anyone who's going to do full digital distribution will lose my sale. Don't care about the 'option', I'll just ignore it.

I'm not comparing the shrinking of files, I'm comparing the size of HDD space. Within a few years, storage for the average consumer won't be a problem for anybody.

Yes, that is the biggest problem going forward. If there's a market for larger market caps, which downloadable games will provide, then there will be somebody willing to provide.

Ack! mnakes me puke they would use such a lame and kiss arse reason as "the ultimate relationship is the connection that we have with the gamer".

Now if they'd said something like wanting to reduce their envoronmental footprint and use less petrochemical products that would at least be a believable.

Of course the real reason is copy control.

Anyway they ain't going digital only for a long time, in fact they won't go digital only until console makers stop making consoles with disc slots / trays. So they'll be for sure be releasing all their WiiU, 720 and PS4 games on disc.

Sega should be the first one to go down. They have done nothing for gaming in recent past.

They just want their money now, and cut out the middle man. i.e retail stores like Gamestop.and Best Buy

Sega is publishing The Cave, which looks better than anything EA has made in...  ever.
