Gonna shave every RDR2 morning to keep my beard right.

[In reality ends up with a massive beard as I stop caring]

I can't believe that's only a 4/10 level beard. A 10/10 beard is going to be ridiculous.

Yes, this makes perfect sense as we all know it's more expensive to upload files to a server than to press a disc and print a booklet/map/sleeve cover, ship to a store, and employ people at the store to sell the game.

I don't understand either. If they made the digital price significantly lower I would be more likely to buy in the PS Store. Now I usually buy the physical disc because it's cheaper and I can even lend the game to friends or sell it once I'm done.

Why would they want you to pay less for anything?

The whole console pricing situation is hosed up. Sony and co. want everyone to go digital. The best way to do this would be to price downloads sensibly but they can't do that because they still rely a lot on brick and mortar stores who wouldn't put up with it. Sony also hate the second hand market, which a lot of brick and mortars rely on.

Steam took off partly because it coincided with shops pretty much stopping selling PC games anyway. That's not going to happen with consoles.

Ahh rats. Pre-ordered. Tried playing RDR a couple of times and got bogged down in Must Collect All The Things. Gave it another go with PSNow's week-long free trial and had a good time.

1: It is gorgeous

How do EB stay in business when they’re the worst price by $20 or more for every new game?

I agree digital costs are a joke. I’d go 100% digital for new games if they matched store discounts.

But sometimes your horse gets injured and can't stand up and the only way to help it is to put it out of its misery :( There's even a dedicated animation for doing it.

I traded in BLOPS4 towards my EB Games price-matched to JB preorder (Only had to pay an extra $3.50 I actually made a profit on BLOPS4) and as I was still talking to the lady about Midnight launches, she was already putting a Pre-Owned on the game I traded in a minute ago.
Or Sony wants me to pay $99 for a digital copy :lol:

What's the bet that the base xbone version will be at 900p like a lot of other games this gen? I have both bone and ps4 but I prefer the xbone controller. If the resolution is going to be worse on the bone though, I'll go for ps4 because I'd rather crisper visuals than a more comfortable controller. If it turns out that the bone version will be 1080p I'll get that, but I just don't know if (probably not) there will be any comparisons on that tomorrow!

I pre-ordered RDR2 two e3s ago for $50 CDN. I’m seriously considering pre-ordering the digital version so I can play right away on Thursday and then selling the physical when it finally arrives.
