Is this ready to pre-download on xbox? It did install like a 10MB file but I was under the impression I could start the download?

Phantasmagoria from '95 had 7 or 8 discs, it was ludcrious relative to the time.

Why don't they let people install the game files and patches, who want to buy the disc version?

I'd like the option at least

Thank you. I KNEW there was one with 7, just couldn't remember it.

Yeah FF9 has 4 discs.

No wonder they're charging 60 quid for 2 discs ...we're practically getting two games!

Happy I'll be getting this on download. Who wants discs in this day and age?

because you can trade them in for cash

Just reading this is on 2 disks I’m thinking I will cancel that Smith’s disk preorder and grab from PSN I’m not planning to trade it in anyways.

It’s only an extra 10euros compared to smiths so not to bad

€15 no?

Smyths is €55 if you collect in store.

The place that normally sends me games a day early sent out an email today saying they can't with RDR2. Cancelled pre-order, gonna get from PSN. Travelling on Sunday abroad for work so need to maximise game time or I can't use the internet for a week

Varik

The C&C game had the best multi disc setup.

The right answer is get the one your friends play on . If you have no console playing friends either one is fine for RDR2. I thought I saw the Xbox has some early access although only 7 days and presumably some extras.

PS4 has got the time DLC for this, only a month later on Xbox.

It's the only single advantage and you don't get that much.

Much prefer not having discs lying around and ability to seamlessly switch games.

Yeah I used to always buy disks but between moving somewhere with great internet, and XtraVision closing (which would mean I'd have to go out of my way to get to a Smyths/Argos/Gamestop), I much prefer just downloading the games these days. And RDR2 is one I can't imagine I would be trading in until such a time as the money I'd get for it would be a pittance (like it isn't already most of the time).

I beg to differ I paid 52 for Spider-Man and sold it for 40euros I paid only 12 euros for it in the end you can’t do that with digital

I paid 45 for farcry 4 and sold it for 40 I only paid 5euros in the end so it’s much more in the interest of us the customers than digital where publishers rule the day and that’s that I would absolutely hate that

Did the same with spiderman but RDR2 has a ridiculously huge single player and online element. Can’t see myself trading it in

Zero-Cool

I got Spider-Man for 36 euros (2 games that cost 35 plus 1 euro to Gamestop) and sold to Cex for 48. 12 euro profit for playing one of the best games this year. Then I got stuck with fallout 4 digitally which I wish I never bought so physical definitely has its perks but red dead does seem like a game where it will be worth having it digital.

How do you cancel a smyths pre order? no mention of it on the email confirmation I got. (Apologies slightly off topic)

go into your smyths account online and click on Cancel Pre-order under Orders.

Sad Professor

I always end up with physical for games I'll never trade-in and digital for games that I would have traded in. The market seems to be designed to ensure this.

Anyway to cancel it if you pre-ordered it without creating an account?
