not a problem for me too.

since every game on the PSN can still be downloaded if ur prev copy is gone. Of course, if u think u have to dload ALL AT ONCE...I would be really time consuming. But if u dload 1 games at at time n then play n then dload, then it wouldn't be such a big deal if ur HD is damage n u lost all ur games in it.

I'm all for the thought of paying only what we want. For instance, maybe like one of the article said, u pay only a small amount for a basic game, then pay to dload the upgrades or extra characters u'd like to use in the game or mp. It's not like we're going to use all the extra things in one game.

Heck maybe we could even sell upgrades, mods, extra weapons, customized characters etc if we'd like to in the future..then gaming can in fact be a part time or full time income for certain people.

the writer of the article is not from our country too

i don't think the disc base game will die, i just think there will be more alternative to how u purchase ur games.

the situation of selling only basic features for a game can work for disc based too. For example, u buy a basic edition street fighter game and on the disc u will get only 4 player to use, later if u're bored u can buy separate dlc to purchase just the characters u're interested in. Premium edition u got all on the fly.

i don't see a big problem there. can still be an alternative for ppl who'd want to save more but still get the game the way they want it.
