I want the digital destiny but don't want to pay $20 more

I really want to get the digital Limited edition for xbone but really don't want to be forced to pay at least a extra $20 more than the store price when they're already making extra profit by not having the over heads that the stores pay. I prefer not needing to change discs and like getting updates sooner with digital but paying more and being treated like a fool by Microsoft is just unacceptable! Not to mention that you can't resell or trade it either I was hoping the digital extras were going to be a bonus with the standard priced digital game to offset the lack of value for money but no such luck I don't blame bungie for this of course it's not there system it's microsofts

  • I can't speak for Xbone......but fully digital games on PS4 perform better than their disc-based counterparts. Loading screens....boot ups....texture fill....all of it is faster. And you aren't paying $20 more. You are paying $10 less. And if you point is that they don't have to pay for shipping, printing, packaging, etc.....then you need to get over that because it isn't changing any time soon. The cost savings is hardly noticeable in the broad scheme of things for the publishers...

      It includes 2 dlc's so it's actually cheaper than buying it all separately. But you do lose the trade in value if you buy it digitally. As far as changing disc, it's never coming out lol. Digital prices need to come down a lot to make it worthwhile to most gamers. Now if you are on the road all the time and don't want lug around disc then I see digital being a good choice. Otherwise it doesn't make sense $$ wise yet to go digital with trade ins.

    • Its a complete joke! ...Although be glad you're not paying an extra $30 dollars more than what people in the UK would need to pay to get it. I bought Assassin's creed black flag for £35. I completed it and one month later I sold it on Ebay for £30. The fact that you can't trade digital is a major thing, yet they still rip you off.

    • I'm a little sad the ghost edition has a disc. I wanted to go all digital with the Xbox one.

        To assume that you were going to receive 2 expansions for the game, as well as the limited edition ghost, emblem, and armory digital content, just because they save a little money on shipping is ridiculous.

      • If I could, I'd give you my PS3 Digital Ghost somehow magically transforming into whatever an Xbone is. (ಠ_ಠ) Bought mine while asleep. Legitimate story. Accident...
