    what takes up less space? buying the disc or buying on demand?


    I know this probably got asked alot already but I'm new to all of this since 360 you didn't have to install the disc but now for xbox one your required too. I also purchased a terabyte for more space and it'snot letting me use it for game saves on xbox one.

    :)

    What's Up With All The Hate?

    I'm cautiously optimistic, But Having No beta, and Other things is Keeping me From buying this game Day one. I Will wait for Reviews to see if its Worth buying or Not.

    Ive both bought physical copies and digital and I can say from my experiences that if you dont have good internet by physical copies. I have good internet and it still took me almost 3 days to download and install a digital copy of GTA 5 with all its online
    updates. Installs from disks can be a little faster then downloading simply because its all there and there's now fluctuation in install time vs with download speeds going up and down.

  7. If you have more than one xbox it's cheaper to by the digital version. You can play the same game with someone in the household without having to purchase 2 physical copies.

    Missing Games on Demand

    It is definitely an EA thing. I bought Dead Space a few years ago on demand and was shocked I couldn't also buy DS2, so I wound up picking it up on disc for like 10 bucks.
