which came out when I was in high school (about 10 years or so ago).

Guess what game it is.

what what's the last game that you preordered?

edit: blazblue calamty trigger came out in north america almost exactly ten years ago from today ( 11-20-18).

time flies

is that your guess for me, or is that the last game you pre-ordered? If the former, nope, not it.

I can see why you'd think I'd be a weeb by preordering BBCT, though

I pre-order a lot. I know my tastes well enough to not regret it. Just did it for Soul Calibur VI.

I'm guessing you pre-ordered that new Jump game.

I don't preorder because I figure most of the games will be in stock or I just by digitally.

I kinda want that jump game because it's jump, but nah, i think I wait on it until the price drops.

I haven't preordered anything since the PS2. Well that's not fully true if you count buying a copy of a limited edition physical game made to order.

my bad, my post was meant to say "i've never had issues buying digital". I kinda get where you're coming from, and this is the first generation where I've bought mostly digital games. It's just more convenient for me. I've been mostly a pc gamer the past few years, so obviously I've been buying digital. I got a ps4 a year ago, and only have 1 physical game and maybe 4 digital games (while the rest of my games are from ps+).

With the wii u, I bought mostly digital, which I honestly do regret because the majority of wiiu games came out on switch. so i could've probably made some money back to buy the games on switch (I did end up double dipping on a few games-bayo 1 and 2, and botw, which i bought used).

Overall though, the benefits of buying digital have outweighed the negatives. I don't consider it pissing away money because I get enjoyment out of the games. ask me in about 4-5 years if I regret buying digital.

I remember going out and buying Calamity Trigger on release day purely on a whim because I liked Guilty Gear, and that game blew me away. Probably my favorite fighting game series to come out of last gen.

Ok will do lol. In my case 4-5 years I'd lose around $5000 in games if I went digital so I'll be sticking with physical until physical is gone. And when all game systems are digital only I can only see physical games spike up in value.

why exactly would you lose money? Are you saying that since you don't physically have the game that they don't have value?

If so, yeah, I get that. But honestly, I'm thinking about the last time I've played a physical ps2 or gamecube game. and yeah, I have played GCN and PS2 games recently, just on my pc, lol.... I have access to all the games I've ever purchased.

I also never resell games

Yes lose money on not being able to sell or trade them. Also after the service is over and not supported anymore you can't re download digital either. It's kinda like renting your home or buying your home.

Digital for consoles is kinda shitty. I can see peoples qualms with supporting it. On pc though, it makes a lot more sense.

Digital games are shitty period. Over priced in most cases, can't lend people, can't sell or trade and can be taken away at the drop of a hat. I also love game cases. Still each to their own I suppose. As for the pre order thing I've done that at times sure. If I know I'm buying a game anyway then why not?

this is the answer. gotta get the piranha plant for free haha. I'm probably gonna get the season pass as well, which is the first time I'll be buying dlc before it's been released or revealed.

I've gotten so many discounted games on steam that it's not even funny. In most cases less than what the physical copy.

I can share games on my ps4 and pc easily. on ps4 I can only share with 1 person, and under certain cercumstances, but on pc I can share my entire library with 10 people (and I can change those people easily) any where in the world.

This year soaked me for new games, man. Black Ops, Soul Calibur, Dragon Quest, TWO Monster Hunters, Tetris, and now Smash and Katamari around the corner too.

Usually like 80% of my purchases are at least two gens old. My N64 and Gamecube collection is getting massive.

Can you say the same about PS4 though? I mean I can't recall the last time I seen a physical copy of a PC game in the stores so.

Yet with physical no limitations are in place period. I admit I do like "share play" though. Basically you can let someone play a game you own without them having to buy it. Granted it's in one hour sessions but still.

Distance. I've shared my account with trusted friends in the US. Sending them a physical game is expensive and typically one way. :P

-friends can ruin/lose games
-can only lend games to friends that are close (or pay to mail them the game)
-cant play the game while it's in their possession

Just a few off the top of my head. I'm not saying digital is perfect, I'm saying there are merits to both

Idk. I was comparing digital PC games to their physical counter parts on ps or xbox, which may not be a fair comparison, but it works for me since I have PC and ps4

Well that certainly is a unique situation but not impossible to do.

Oh physical certainly has some negatives and digital has some pros. Physical is much better than digital though for me personally for many reasons.

Fair enough. Everytime I look on the PS store the prices are a fucking joke over here.
