It’s called taking advantage of lazy bastards.I just preordered Red Dead 2, which is the first time I've preordered a game probably in a decade.
It was 749kr for a digital download, in comparison to 549 for a physical copy. In English money thats give or take £15 cheaper to actually get a disc.
Why is this?
It’s called taking advantage of lazy bastards.
I know. Some people can’t be arsed to even do that. Or trade/sell it afterwards.Aye but I'm still a lazy bastard. I ordered it to be mailed to my house.
People who want to play them as soon as they’re released? It’s hardly rocket science is it?Whee preorders new games? Prices are an absolute piss-take. Wait until the sales and they're at least 25% off.
Because you can’t snap a digital copy
Most likely for midnight download on day of release. No waiting for the postman etc.
Personally I prefer a physical copy as there's resale value.
Not even kidding, I bought PES this year on digital download because last year I did snap the disc.
I also went through about two pads.
Digital download was great for me this year and cheaper than the shops. 49.99 on PSN, 54.99 in GAME. I also logged into my PS4 on my phone and told it to download whilst I was at work
It usually gets worse the older a game gets. Me and @Snappy got a physical copy of Ark for £20 when it was about 1 year old but still £45.99 on the store. We actually made a profit flogging it. Same with 7 days to die.Not even kidding, I bought PES this year on digital download because last year I did snap the disc.

No brainer when this is your situation.I only buy digital nowadays cause I gameshare with my 11 year old and it’s much cheaper than buying two physical copies.
Everyone knows GAME charges full rrp. Everywhere else will be selling the same game for £45.Not even kidding, I bought PES this year on digital download because last year I did snap the disc.
