Forums - Gaming Discussion - Petition to stop digital distribution from taking over

I dont like the digital distribution either. I like to have a collection and to know its always there. With digital distribution i cant bring the hottest new game to a friends how to play but i'd have to bring the whole system.

Im sure if say you have a PSN account, Sony knows on your record what game you've bought and will be allowed to redownload them anytime. However if you have to keep redownloading I just feel thats a waste of time, the need of internet connection, and if its a big game costing you your bandwidth cap.

If anything, digitial distribution should always go hand-in hand with a physical copy.

OOh Sony Sony rootkit rootkit. IF ANYONE HAS ANY SENSE THEY WOULDNT FOLLOW EITHER SONY OR M$ BOTH OF THEM ARE HELL BENT ON CRUSHING YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER

Bill Gates had Mac prototypes to work from, and he was known to be obsessed with trying to make Windows as good as SAND (Steve's Amazing New Device), as a Microsoft exec named it. It was the Mac that Microsoft took for its blueprint on how to make a GUI.
