Also, Spider-Man.
People simply do not get that it is far more appealing for kids and teenagers to imagine themselves as the hero rather than as the hero’s sidekick,
Spider-Man just made Robin largely redundant.
I completely understand where you’re coming from, but for a lot of gamers physical discs are the only way they could afford to play games because they could get them secondhand. You can also give games to your younger siblings Which is a great way to introduce them to the games you were playing.
Most importantly though, as we saw from PlayStation this past week, if the media we buy is only digital, it can be taken away from us at a moment’s notice with no recourse. Imagine that, one day your entire library of games could be deleted overnight because technically you don’t own it.
If your "worst comic book movies" list is all only superhero adaptations from post-2000 you really haven't seen the depths. This isn't even tip of the iceberg stuff, this is floating above the iceberg in a hot air balloon compared to the worst of the worst. Stare into the abyss.
Without physical games:
- Midnight launches are dead
- Collectors Editions lose half of their value
- You can’t share, trade, or sell your games
- You can’t buy used games
- If there’s a server outage, you’re shit out of luck
- YOU OWN NOTHING
