(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); What's up.. Would you guys prefer store bought games or downloads for the store of your gaming media's. I like store-bought because I think it's more safer as in if I ever get banned I still would have them. What your opinion on this? I would love to hear it

I prefer disk. I dont have great internet so download speed isn't good. I like having the physical collection as well

Disk, because of all of the stuff said above and generally its cheaper. But I'm a bit of a hypocrite because the last 3 games I bought have been digital because I am too lazy to switch out the disks and its faster.

I dont have a data cap but downloads take a lot of time, I just do it when I am not home or sleeping, in terms of getting banned, doubt this would happen on my XB1 but that is a risk.

True. I do also Download when I'm not at home. The lazy part is true but I sit close to my console anyways so it's easy ¯\_(ツWinky Winky_/¯

Digital. I bought myself a 2Tb HDD a while ago for my PS4 so I have a lot of free space (over 1.4Tb).
Also, I always buy PSN cards for 50% off, and gameshare all my games with my irl friend.
And I only buy games when they're on sale in the PS Store.

In other words, my games barely cost me anything, they load faster with my new HDD, and being as lazy as I am, I don't have to switch CDs when I'm bored of a game.

You can go up to 6 TB now.

Yeah I think that was the case before as well, you're talking about that Nyko adapter to put 3.5" drives in the ps4?
IMHO, anything over 2TB is an overkill because you'll never be playing ALL of your games on that drive, let's say every game is ~30Gb, you'll never play more than 60 games simultaneously, you can always delete stuff to clear your space.

Hey it's just a thought. And it's worth it.
