General Videogame Thread

[hello]

The beauty of me being able to shareplay with my son. Buy on store it installs 3 days before release.

Can you send me details of how this works, never brought online but as I got the lad a ps4 for his birthday, it might be an idea to link them if thats possible.

I imagine ISPs all over the world will be ruing the day RDR2 comes out - besides, I prefer physically having the disk.

I don't think it will be too big an issue. Most people who get it on day one will have pre-ordered anyway, so most people who are digital downloads will have pre-loaded the game in advance. My copy is already downloaded and ready to go. For those who aren't pre-loaded digitals, the day 1 patch is the equivalent of something like 20 minutes of Netflix streaming in UHD.

I did too until I realized you can create two copies on the x box with the downloaded versions.Also with the pc the downloaded versions are for absolute pennies with cd-keys.

I like how I can decide to buy a game as an impulse buy and it is ready to play before I could have even left the house to go buy it from a shop. Or how I don't have to swap disks to jump between games. It's just a better user experience all around.

And no scratches.

Thinking of buying a Nintendo Switch for the 8 year old boy. Worth it? I never liked the Wii all that much but it isnt for me

Digital copies should be cheaper than physical and yet they are more expensive, I try to buy from USA account as it works out cheaper

I buy keys off certain sites online, often get good deals and never had any problems. Got Fifa 19 the day after release for £35 and you get the key instantly.

 

[hello]

that's a decent price, we've got 18 I tend to only do even years due to cost, is 19 much improved?
