If there any developers out there that has not considered this already, they are not worth mentioning. This does not mean there will be no disc. In fact it is impossible, If PS3 games now take up almost all of the Blu-ray disc space. i.e 40 GB+ how will digital be able to cope with more than that. The Same with Xbox, it's guaranteed that the next Xbox will have games that take considerably more space.

One top of that Blu-rays in 3D sometime require 2 disc. Hard drive space would need to be huge.

Also as Sirren has stated, No one is going to wait several days to download a game, in my case 2 weeks. They will simply not bother and it would kill sales.

The News story has been fabricated simply for the Fan boys/girls.

I have never heard so much rubbish in my life.
I never said it was fact,thats why i have asked if anyones got concrete proof &/or thoughts on this. Personally,i dont think it will happen(yet anyway) for various reasons. MCV was one source i know of,albeit not always a reliable one.
