This video is my opinion what I prefer and why. Doesn’t mean that if you prefer digital games that you are any less of a person so don’t get this video out of context.

I used to love buying games at my local game store but many reasons why I switched to all digital. First reason started to switched is when they got rid of manuals. I used to love to take the manual out and read about the game and check out the art work. Second reason having kids. I remember my kids taking all the discs out and leaving them on the floor and broke so many of my games. Right now i been going to more physical for things like music and movies but games not so much games because of day 1patches, games not even being on the disc and still having to download the rest of the game and games coming out now not complete.

Great video. I have thought a lot about digital vs physical. If you have console digital and your account gets hacked now you had better hope you have all your games downloaded. Then what if your console breaks? All your games will be lost if you can't get back into the account to change your primary console. I think digital Steam games are great because you can back them up and if your pc breaks you can play them on any pc. You can also run a mod that will allow them to run wihtout internet or Steam connection. Steam games are probably the safest because I have seen a few disk crack at the center and would no longer work. Xbox 360 game boxes were bad to crack game disks so I would use a different storage case for those. I can burn Steam games to blue ray disks and print out a box cover so that they are now physical copies. They sure run better than console versions if you have a high end pc. Lately I am collecting physical Switch games, its cool to see them on my shelf so I see what you mean.

I used to collect and horde everything from games, comics and dvds. I would buy every game on every console if it received a review of at least 7/10 even if I had no immediate plan to play them. Likewise with movies and comics. I have a big house and have a dedicated cinema/games room and library to store everything in. However, as I got older, these things just became a waste of space. I am unlikely to play my old games and watch my old DVDs as newer graphics and tech just render these less appealing. In recent yearss I have sold everything and moved to digital. I still have multiple consoles in different rooms and going digital makes playing games and watching movies so much more convenient. Digital is great. My rooms also look sleeker without the clutter. The worst thing about owning a collection is the time wasted when trying to sell everything. So many DVDs were worth 1p or 10p and so many games were worth £1. Of course some appreciated in value and sold for multiple hundreds but the time needed to sort everything out and wait for it to sell was horrendous. This alone makes me never want to collect anything ever again. I thought I would keep my collection forever but I guess life makes you change.

My biggest issue with digital is the threat of them removing something from a game. For example the music from GTA 4, and MJ from the trilogy.

I am not someone to throw stones at the digital marketplace with over 200 games on my steam account but there is something so much better about opening up that packaging and getting the little handbook for the games and the advertisements of the other games and upcoming games...Nintendo always was the best at this IMO.

the biggest problem with this argument is that there are sales on digital games literally all the time. you just have to be patient and play your backlog and wait for the next sale.

@@socalju2447 I never said in this video digital never has sales I said the sales on physical comes up quicker than digital because it does. It also depends on the games too more popular games stay at retail price longer than physical because retailers control the sale prices not Sony.

dont waste your space and time, physical games are incomplete on disc anyway, you collecting broken version that must be connected to online to be updated anyway, last physical games to collect was ps3 games and maybe select japanese ps4 ps5 titles

When it comes to physical I’m really directing towards retro not modern. Full games on PlayStation and Nintendo systems.
