You need a more current console. And how do you not have more PS2 games?

You can't enjoy having lots of games without physical copies. A big file folder is just silly.

Nope, it's not fulfilling unless it can look like a library.

I'm not, I seriously see no point in buying digital. I won't buy any game I can't touch with my hands. Plus, library effect.

unlimited copies
often cheaper
often no drm (not with steam obviously)
you can actually buy games from three years ago and also small titles

@previous (dreamworks !AUIkTW/L46)
But you can't look at it on your shelf and think "I own that". Plus those little instruction booklets <3
I know I pay more, but I'm content to, because I can actually feel it. Remember saving up money, taking it to the shop, and going home with game in hand to enjoy it for hours? I still get that feeling. Buying digital is not the same.

I hope I'm not alive to see the sale of the last disk.

Data on a hard drive. That's nice. Enjoy it.

Pirates are getting exactly what you have, minus the DRM, free of charge.

What if the Steam servers go down indefinitely?

Regardless, you're entitled to digital games all you like, but I still much prefer having a physical copy.

It's not legal if it's a choice, but if they went bankrupt, then it would probably be shut off, right?

If I stopped liking what you dislike, I'm sure I'd become a model citizen, but alas, fuck you.

In that case, don't you think Valve would strip the games from the client and let you use them without having to use steam?

Bad Company 2 is just about the only one I play now.
Garry's Mod is pretty good, but I can't be arsed to relearn everything because I haven't touched it in years.

Valve has come out and said this over and over; If they go under, they unlock the games first.
Of course, you have to be willing to trust Valve, but to me their word is as good as gold.

I have more PS2 games but they're stored because I don't play/like them (holiday gifts like Singstar and Ford Racing)

Also I bought MGS2 and 3 used so they aren't displayed until I print their boxart (I'm vain like that)
