When is microsoft going to get with the digital picture here? Digital licenses are suppose to be cheaper especially on barely AAA titles. You only have leasing rights...where do you think my money's going in this scenario?

Steam was built on 'Digital Rights Management' though, and that's the biggest reason you see the lower prices, console gamers wanted no part of this when M$ attempted to implement it and you can't have it both ways. You want a better deal on this game for
your console? Then go continue to support the used game market or wait for the Digital version to go down in price, something that has happened for all LEGO games in the past, you wanna play it on your console today? Then that's the price you pay, I have
it for Steam and I can tell you that it's one of the better LEGO games, but I wish that they'd go back to no dialogue by the characters though...

Also don't forget that there is more competition on the digital marketplace on the PC. Not to mention that publishers don't need to pay a license fee to publish games on the PC. Steam and Origin have no more DRM than a console does.

Those two thing will also increase the cost of digital games on the Xbox One.

So buy it on steam. I'll pay more just to have it on my system of choice.

But I have no interest in lego's anymore. Now if Lego did an open world sandbox type game somewhat similar to MineCraft! Then I would be all over it.

Remember when Legos came in a box with no instructions and it was up too you to build what you wanted.

Now you just get over priced Lego kits that have the exact parts needed to finish the piece.
