They are.

The idea is to get the consumer to then sell the physical copy to them used, which they will turn a profit on.

I'm giving them till black friday before they overturn it.. People will see 2, maybe even 3, games (Digital) vs 1 free game (Physical) at gamestop for the same price bundled with a console. Its a no brainer what the general public would buy..

The lost sales to the competition Will force them to go back on this

Too many other options out there now. I think the only thing I have bought from Gamestop this year was a rechargeable pack for my Xbox One controller.

You have an immigration problem, I say we should kill all the muslims, win win.

Imagine, if you will, that Gamestop could simply be a better company, and then everyone could win.

gross. i'm in the market for a second ps4 but i refuse to buy any bundle that has a physical version of a game. that shit is just trash for the landfill.

Guess GameStop needs some way to help start a used game market.

Good for them, would never buy a bundle with a digital game

This will have very little impact on where people buy their consoles. People will generally buy from their prefered retailer if they can; if not, they'll go with the best value.

This is completely an attempt to increase used game sales and to keep people on the trade-in roller coaster.

It's going to be interesting to see if GameStop is able to keep up if their bundles end up being more expensive. They would probably eat the cost themselves but they still might struggle to reach the initial value to consumers that we see with digital bundles.

Great news, though I wish they had done this before I bought my Wii U.

Digi is growing. Which is a great thing. I'm almost 100% digital now. Gamestop with their crazy ass prices should've been put out to pasture
