Digital (Steam-PC).

I also buy by delivery for 3DS, but right now I'm waiting until things calm down in order to buy anything again.

Digital, but that's just because I just bought a gaming PC so it goes hand in hand at this point really. I'll be picking up FF7 remake physically.



After winning Xbox One from Taco Bell last year, I have been getting most of my games for free (both xbox one and surprisingly also PC) as part of the xbox one live subscription that came with it.

I think I might continue with that after it runs out. I picked other. Although it's digital, it's not really the same because it's more like renting than buying. After subscription service, digital is probably my second most, then delivery. Would normally include in store, probably before delivery, but less likely during COV19.



I have a few physical games coming in for pre-order, but things have gotten so bad I haven't even thought about them until I saw this thread. Last physical game I bought was the Yakuza Collection. Since then it's just been a selection of digital games that were on sale.

Always physical but delivered. New games Amazon. Other stuff with eBay or other Japanese import places some not so well known. I do some LRG or limited run stuff.



Bite my shiny metal cockpit!

Physical. Walmart and Target have both groceries and electronics, and I still gotta eat.



My backlog is big enough to keep me entertained for at least 6 month.
That and FF14 which feeds me with updates regulary.



The same way that i have been. Physical and delivered.



I'm not buying anything right now, but if I did I would get them delivered.
I always go for physical games when I have the option.
