(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

My issue is I'd get online, and once it loaded a map, like at the intermission screens it would just stop working lol

That happens to some games that are over used.

Physical copy. Something tangible. Always nice to touch things Headbang

Physical copies are the best.

The only positive aspect of going digital is that you can access it away from home and it saves shelf space, plus you can "share" it.

Has anyone mentioned that you can only download your games a certain number of times before the license expires? The same is with a lot of digital products, Windows etc. Your license or key only has a limited amount of download associated with it. After that you have to buy another key.

Having a disc means you can use it whenever you want, uninstall/reinstall any number of times, plus you don't have to be online to use it. It's not associated with a PSN account. What if you get banned? Do you lose all of your digital access?
