Physical or Digital, what do you prefer?

Ano preference niyo?

Ako kasi mas gusto ko pa din ang physical. While I do get the advantages of having them digital like always having all the games you have on the go, I'd rather have an actual copy of the game sitting on my shelf than floating in my account. I dunno why, but I feel safer to have them there. :sweat:

Physical! Iba parin kapag physically nakikita at nahahawakan ko yung binili ko, tsaka yung excitement when opening/unsealing it. :2thumbs: :lol: :grin:

OT: This is also why I don't buy things online unless hindi available dito sa Pinas. When I pay for something, gusto ko nakukuha (as in nakikita/nahahawakan) ko agad.

physical, you can always install the game to another computer bar the activation code.
when your hard drive crashes you can still install them.

Isa pang ayaw ko sa digital is that most if not all have DRMs na minsan nakakahassle although some physical copy games I think have started using DRM protection na din.

But isa pa na ayaw ko is kailangan maging online pa kung sakali kailangan mo mag reinstall unlike kung ready on hand na ang physical copy ng game.

Mostly Physical pa rin ako, but lately I've been warming up to Digital na rin. Ganda kasi ng sales sa PS Store nakakasulit din. I'd say I'm 85% Physical 15% Digital

Hmm..yeah, I guess the sales really make up for the digital copies, lalo na kung PS+ subscriber ka. :agree:

But come to think of it, kapag physical copies naman, pwede din makabili ng used copies (madalas in like new condition pa) for cheaper din than regular retail price. Then of course there's the option to resell if ever matapos mo na yung game or hindi naman siya part ng collection mo. :sweat:

Tapos para sa mga collector din, I would say at least 8/10 times that limited edition or collectors edition are only available for physical copies. Parang wala pa akong nakita na digital copy lang that comes with all the nice bonuses. I don't think the Nintendo 3DS bundles count (like the Fire Emblem 3DS LE).

Physical. I like the cover art, the colored manual, the bonus items, posters, etc.

Digital. I like the convenience. Also, I hate clutter.

Kahit papano nagugulat ako na hindi din pala ganun ka-popular sa atin dito sa pps (at least so far) ang digital copies. Dito kasi sa US, parang mga 60% physical and the 40% prefer the digital. Siguro it has something to do na din with the faster and more reliable internet speeds and connection.

Dagdag pa yung convenience. Nung nasa US ako, ang lalayo ng Gamestop, Bestbuy, etc sa lugar namin. Nasa malayong city pa. :facepalm: :huh:
