    If you want digital sales to be viable...you HAVE to do better than this


    First time buying a digital copy at launch and have to say I am not impressed. Microsoft is obviously pushing gamers I'm this direction. If this is the way it is..no thanks. I could have been back from midnight launch, installed and four or five matches
    deep by now.

    Pre-loading is a must. I am at 30 percent an hour and a half after purchase. Now instead of playing my game I'm going to bed and wishing I had gone to launch. If you are going to lift a business model (steam) then take the good parts too. I will be sticking
    to disc's regardless of the benefits until this gets sorted.

    :)

    Anyone else going all Digital?

    Seems to be a UK problem.

    In US and the rest of Europe,disc and digital are at the same price.

    After that,if digital sales starts to get bigger,we will see digital price drops and better deals too.

    This is what happen with digital sales on PC vs physical sales.

    You can't ask for better deals if you don't show your support.

    Please bring back sharing with a family!

    Why? What makes it the perfect feature? I can lend my 360 games to whomever I want with no restrictions so what makes it better by limiting your options? If you want to be able to play off the hdd with no disc they still have day one digital downloads so
    that option remains viable.

    here is a question, how many people do you loan games to?

    ever have a game come back less than perfect or not at all?

    Digitally loaning someone a game, means not having to worry if you'll get it back or in what condition.
