Disks vs Downloads?

[Progrumz]

Downloads are much better for me because I was always horrible at keeping my physical copies in pristine condition.

So keep the original for making the backups

The dreaded scratch on the CD's!

Used games suck. I can't tell you how many XBOX 360 and XBOX ONE games I had to resurface and repair over the years because people are unable to take care of their games before they trade them in.

Ever since digital downloads became a thing I have much preferred to go for that option over having a physical disc. With me not having a lot of space now to be able to store the games physically, knowing I have them and they are stored for me without needing space to do so in my home is something I prefer.

 

[Daltonio]

In theory, I prefer physical copies. In reality though I've almost entirely shifted over to digital which I never thought would happen since I was one of the ones arguing against it early on. It started with some games having exclusive items I wanted in digital versions, like Playstation avatars & themes or skins or whatever. Then the sales are always much better on digital games these days. And then somewhere around the way I realized I was buying way more digital than not.

They don't take up that much space though.

Sounds like you didn't have a choice.

It's an expensive buffing system that movie rentals like Movie Gallery and Game Stop use to have for DVDs.

I’m honestly fine with either. I download most games now, except for a select few from stuff I’m a big fan of.

 

[Ravenfreak]

I prefer physical copies myself, especially if it's a game in my favorite gaming franchises. I don't mind buying digital games here and there though too.
