    Then there are games from devs like ubisoft and EA Who like to charge extra for story dlc whether on disc or not. Thats not the full game. Hell, even square Enix does it. But I guess that's the the same thing as my original argument.
    Well, I guess cases like that are very rare, but you have a point.
    As for DLCs or downloadable games, it depends. If I didn't like very much the game, or I know I'm not gonna play it for a very long time (or never again), I delete it even if it came with free DLC. I tend to not buy DLCs at all.

    Yep. I generally prefer buying physical. I choose the downloadable version only if the price is very advantageous.

    Yeah I generally prefer physical too. There are a few times where I have both physical and digital, but only if the digital version was super cheap on sale.

    Actually, me too. I have Tomb Raider Legend both physical and digital, being the physical one the PS2 version and the digital one the Xbox360 version (which I paid around 2 $ lol). Then I have Life is Strange (its limited edition was a must buy)and Portal (my favourite game, which I bought on 360 with The Orange Box the first time and as the digital stand alone the second time).

    Yeah even if I have the physical version, if I can get the digital version super cheap and I really like the game, then I might pick it up digitally. On another note, I'm debating with myself if I should keep going at my seasonal job.
