Dodge 7,248 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I'm ready to make the preorder, but I'm not sure which to order. Physical or Digital? Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jjss924 576 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I'm getting the physical copy. My net is slow, so dl is a pain. Also, when I'm finished with the game or if I don't like it, I can still sell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinister 2,578 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I bought digital version. I started out against them but I buy everything digital these days. No piles of boxes/cases laying around. AS JJ mentioned, the only reason to buy physical is the ability to sell them afterwards. I've been playing GTA for 5 years now, and expect RDR2 to provide a lot of entertainment as well. I know that some people like to collect the steelbooks and stuff so there is that to consider as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeGreenLegend 4,176 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I’d go digital, embrace the future. Even with bad net you’ll still download it in a week. The 150GB download size is actually 92, but for some reason the PS4 needs an extra 50GB to download stuff, that won’t factor into the eventual file size.

Sinister 2,578 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Word has it the extra space will be needed for the day one patch. My copy is 98.15 GB. with 3 things waiting to be downloaded. The Treasure Map and ultimate edition stuff.

Fido_le_muet 5,197 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Preordered physical cause it was less expensive. And I love the maps that come with Rockstar Games. Edited October 20, 2018 by Fido_le_muet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 All of my games are digital, 100+ of them. I hate swapping the discs. Digital is more expensive and has no resale value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lann 10,838 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Digital, for me, dont want a disc. Edited October 20, 2018 by Lann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protocawl 2,971 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 I buy everything digital these days. A lot faster, no switching discs, makes for a quieter console, no need to worry about the blu-ray getting broken, no chance of scratching/breaking the discs... the list goes on a bit. There's definitely a lot of risks in only having a digital version, but I personally prefer it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danielle 3,007 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Always physical, don't really have a reason why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb76 3,951 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I like having an actual physical game. I do actually like changing discs. (I miss blowing in snes cartridges too) 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinister 2,578 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I don't miss that at all. Still have my SNES but the original was tossed because of that annoyance, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beez 5,091 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Digital. I was so sick of hearing the constant disc noise from my PS3 GTAV copy so I got digital for the PS4 version and never regretted it. I might buy a game guide to have something physical, we'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinister 2,578 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Game guides are like games these days, I go digital, lol. Everything is online. I still have some of my old school GTA guides though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con 5,703 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I'm guessing I will be getting the physical copy since i think that is the version that comes in the PS4Pro RDR2 bundle im looking to get at the moment. 1 Quote RSC FILM CLUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge 7,248 Posted October 25, 2018 Author Share Posted October 25, 2018 Its preordered as of last night. Went with a physical copy from Best Buy. Hopefully I'll get to play it this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FragTrap666 104 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Only reason I bought the physical copy of the Ultimate ed. was so I can trade a bunch of old dusty games and pay only 12 $ for RDR 2. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're getting a second PS4 soon so it will be a good way for 2 of us to play the same game at the same time 1 Quote Crew Policies and Vetting Procedure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
