No. What happens if my Internet crashed for more than 12 hours or let's say I have a slow connection due to my Broadband package? A digital console wouldn't work out so well as there would be no ability to play offline. My personal preference is Physical Copies of computer games anyway, so I'd rather have a normal console as then I can have the best of both.

killamch89 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I wouldn't be to be honest because as others have said here, what happens if your internet connection goes...then you will have to go outside. Nobody wants to go outside! - Nobody! 🤣 DylanC and StaceyPowers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palemidnight25 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 No, I prefer physical copies and console games. If I wanted to play digital games I'd play pinball, Checkers, Sims or a card game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the reason Microsoft is making that new Xbox One which is essentially an underpowered gaming PC with no drive at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heatman Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Yes of course, personally I wouldn't think that twice and I had bought it already. I believe it's definitely worth it and would give a far more better gaming experience than what we used to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UleTheVee Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I would because I almost see no point on having the disc drive anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyPowers Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Nope. What everyone said about "what if the internet crashes" is a valid point. But for me it's also about ownership and consumer empowerment. Once things are totally digital, they turn into subscription services. I really like to just ... buy a thing, and then own it, and play it whenever I want for however long I want as often as I want with no continuous drain of money.

Fair point there but gaming is heading in a digital direction(which I don't support either but the train has already been set in motion...). 9 hours ago, UleTheVee said: I would because I almost see no point on having the disc drive anymore. A driveless Xbox is just a ridiculously underpowered, overpriced PC and nobody will by that. You might as well get a gaming PC - even a budget gaming PC runs circles around any console.

That may be true, but it’s not going to stop me from complaining about it. I can still oppose the train in a paltry attempt to slow it down or stop it. @LadyDay @SpaceExplorer @The Blackangel Where do you weigh in on this topic?
