Same. I don't remember when was the last tine I went and purchased game without buying it online (either physical or digital copy)

I don't buy digital games often, but I do ask my parents now and then to order physical games online.

Back in 2006 or so, I showed my father how cheaper the online purchases are and he was really impressed.

Hm, indeed, but without a capable system to run these purchases, they don't seem justified anyways. Most of my gaming is on consoles for the moment.

Same for me. Consoles are great. I buy physical copies online too on eBay

You've been making typos aplenty as of late, why?

Well, letter "d" is the letter next to "s" on iPhone, plus I think I am not getting enough sleep. I apologise and I will be more careful in future.

It's not a crime, to me at the least.
It just bugs me a little seeing it.

Digital copies are the best, I just wish they were cheaper, when I can either buy Bioshock Infinite on Xbox on demand for £50, or on amazon for £20, I just end up not buying it. I don't want to deal with a disc but it's not worth over twice the money. It's the same reason I haven't bought Rayman Legends yet.

I prefer to get physical copies since I'm a collector, and it always gives me extra security in case there's no internet connection. On the other hand, I only go for digital copies when it is exclusively available in digital mode, when it is a game I want to try out first, or when it is with a super tempting price when compared with the retail alternative.

Fair enough, although my downloaded Xbox games work fine when there's no internet connection, as long as I'm playing on the same box I bought them on, and it's so much easier to just go to the game rather than have to figure out where the disc is, get it, take it out of the box, pop it in the tray etc.

But I understand the collecting aspect, as I once felt the same way.

I'm not in the mood for misdirection, play pranks elsewhere.

so I have steam because a friend wanted me to play TF2, but are there any other exclusive games I could get? Because most of the games on there I already own.

I don't know if the community knows about the written Steam guide I've created since a while concerning Rayman Origins. It isn't complete yet but the feedback of other Steam users has been positive. I might also create a similar guide for Rayman Legends. :)

On the subject of Steam and RO, did you ever get that letterboxing issue fixed?

Ah, that's a pity, so you're forced to play at 800x600 as it's the only way it displays properly?
