CD's are collectors items. Holy relics of ancient times past.
I really don't like the fact we purchase the majority of our games online nowadays.
Surely someone else misses the fact that new game smell, reading the detailed manual whilst it installs to a cool ingame beat with ingame screenshots as you pet the work of art that is the cover? Just me?
With all these anti-piracy laws it also becomes tedious to loan, giveaway or sell games. I wonder if it has a lot of effect since I see a lot of people still pirate.
Not entirely though. Depending on the game, and assuming you have a powerful enough PC, you can have split screen on PC games too.
It does require running a 2nd, sandboxed instance of the game, so it's pretty heavy on system resources, only one player can use mouse+keyboard and you might find some sound conflicts.
But then again, granted your comp can take it, you can have 1080p split screen at 60fps (or even more if you have a 120Hz display, or a multi monitor setup, you name it).
BF4? Oh come on girl. Why not Dawn of War? Or if it has to be a recent game... I dunno... Wolfenstein The New Order.
Yeah, it should be a quality game, and not some re-release.
Wait, why is it a disc? Who still uses those!! It should just have a steam key on a piece of paper unless this guy is a console pleb...
If there's one thing consoles have over PCs, it's local multiplayer.
not on battlefield though :/

Sometimes Ill buy the disc just to have faster install speeds... And to add to my collection. ^.^
