Do you think you need to be so toxic? Genuine question.
Digital games are cheaper for people buying them because it is cheaper to produce and distribute than a disc, that's a basic law of economics.
85% of console game buyers agree.
Keep digging, bud.
What is that random percentage claimed? What's the source? What numbers is it conflating? And how would it change anything I said about the economies of scale and the fact that these companies have been working to engineer a slant to digital only for years?
92.4% of dentists agree that your random percentage expecting some kind of appeal to perceived authority is ineffective... And, my percentage here is actually higher than yours, so that's pretty embarassing for you.
I'm waiting for your apology.
Non-response just raises the percentage - you're up to 96.5% now...
I've spelled it out to you and provided sources. Where you so resistant to evidence?
Are you a bigot?
What an odd thing to say.
If you are going to have a conversation about it at least do some research.

Those Stats end in q42025 but this year's stats are widely reported to be 85% digital. Any disagreement that can be solved with a 15 second internet search doesn't sit well with the person that started it (you).
I think you need to reflect on your attitude.
I've given you all the stats but you obviously aren't reading them. Or do you not understand?
Now you have a choice. Be a better person and apologize or continue to be a toxic fuck.
