Yeah, but why not? I enjoy having access to the game within the same 10 minutes I buy it...

Now downloading, that's a different story.

I also enjoy having access to the game as soon as I buy it, that's why I download. Having to order and wait for shipment or going to the store takes considerably more time.

How many modern 3d games are there that fit on a reasonable amount of disks? Don't you usually have to download shit either way?

When was the last time you bought a game on some physical storage and did not have to download etc. things anyway?
