QUOTE(bananajoe @ Jun 5 2012, 04:10 PM) This is the pro and cons i can think of Reply to your notes.Pro 1.No need to go and queue to buy the game. 2. less worry of loosing the disk. 3. i can redownload all my game copy if my hd crashed. 4. CD key is preserved and get streamline patch update. 5. just downloadn and put on queue overnight (since using unifi) 6. Go Green. (they dont need to make a dvd for me  )7. Can get promo online. (like BF 3 now priced at 32.50 SGD instead of 60 SGD. 8. super cheap when its sales time cheaper than cpt jack dvd (courtesy of JinXXX) 9. save space (courtesy of advocado) 10.No need to worry disc scratch til cannot read. (courtesy of advocado) Cons. 1. Download sometime slow but today i checked my download speed is a 700 - 800 kbps (for origin) 2. Take bigger chunk on hd space (but i can opt remove the installation files) 3. cannot sell to others (courtesy of streme21) 4. If you loose your account, you loose all you stuff. (courtesy of advocado)  how about u guys ?Pro 1. Never been an issue for me since not many people in Malaysia buy ori. Can simply walk-in. 2. 90% of physical purchase nowadays also can be linked to cloud copies. Such as with Origins, Steam etc. At the same price summore. 3. Refer 2. 4. Refer 2. 5. Refer 2, you can still buy physical and install online by using your serial to link to their online service. 6. Okay. 7. Same promos also happened in game stores. 8. Okay. 9. Okay. 10. Refer 2. Cons 1. Okay. 2. Okay. 3. Physical also cannot sell nowadays (PC games) because of registration and linked serials. 4. Same for both physical and virtual. For me, I buy and linked them to their service immediately. Buy them for shelve collection and emergency installation. Like that can still install online and play without CD.  |

QUOTE(ico12 @ Jun 5 2012, 04:17 PM) physical DVDs can be put on your shelf. dunno why but it looks damn nice and after few years when you want to do spring cleaning, you'd stumble upon the DVD and then you will go like "man I finished this game few years back. it was awesome". it's part of the fun owning the game, like when you found your old gameboy cartridge and went all nostalgic. the capitalist scums don't care about the nostalgic value, they just want to maximize profit hence the downloading scheme Already done that when i saw all my PS2 games and had shed my manly tearskthxbai |

anyway do u guys realize games nowadays a "Buy and Buy" principle? You get to buy a game with limited mode and have to buy more when DLC coming in or to unlock another mode.
