Game Disc or game download.... is it worth it? and if so then is the downloaded downgraded from the disc?

The Don · 02-12-2008, 08:29 PM

only difference is you don't get a headset with the download...

iNCREDiPiNOY · 02-12-2008, 08:29 PM

I say Game Disc! If you're sticking with Download then you're supporting Micro$oft. So stick with Game Disc anyway.

I personally would say go with the disc. They are the same game quality wise but with the disc you can sell it if you don't like it, you can also easily use it on multiple machines, say a friends machine. Also if there will be multiple users each playing it under their own account on the same PS3 then definitely go with disc. The headset that comes with the disc version is nice too.

Not true, the disc allows multiple users on the same machine each with their own PS3 network ID. Since the download is linked to the master account the sub accounts won't work.

I got the game last weekend, it rocks. Get it one way or the other! I recommend the disc though.

You can resell a game. You can't do that with a download.

johnno1986 · 02-12-2008, 08:37 PM

I bought this yesterday. It is awesome. The best. This is the first game I've ever played online and love it. I'd buy the disc version because you get the headset with it and, as mentioned, if you don't like it you can return it.

X-Ninja · 02-12-2008, 08:39 PM

haha. The reason i got the downloadable version was because i wasnt willing to wait the 3 more hours for it to be released in stores...

If i could change it, i wouldnt. Having it run off the hard drive is awsome simply because you dont need to get up, find the case, take out the Uncharted disc

, find the Uncharted case, put the Warhawk disc in, and THEN sit down to play.

You know? Im a pretty impatient guy...

I thought the same thing. Since when does downloading support Microsoft?

+1. Just buy it. It's the best exclusive title for any console and you'll have a hard copy of it.

As for the headset, I've yet to really use mine. Wish I didn't pay extra for it.

I heard the disc also has some extra special features that arn't on the download. I still want the disc over the download though.

chnandler_bong · 02-12-2008, 10:08 PM

Is OOD just a download? If so, does that hamper the ability to play the expansion when you have Warhawk on disc?

OOD is a download but it does not hamper the ability to play if you have the disc.

I like having it on my hard drive. But I am the only gamer in my house and like that I can jump in real quick after watching a movie or playing another game with out getting up. Yup, I am lazy.

Rike255 · 02-13-2008, 03:34 AM

I like having a disc copy of my stuff so I recommend the disc version. Plus you get a pretty nice headset. Even if you don't use it at least you have it. Can never have too many toys!

Invincible0427 · 02-13-2008, 03:42 AM

Pm me. I have this game and will trade it for another game or even blu ray movies. I dont play it anymore which is why im willing to part ways with it.

CYMBOL · 02-13-2008, 10:14 AM

I downloaded cause I couldn't wait for it to hit stores - one of my favorite games of all time.

I ended up buying the headset later - which I use often, however, if you're not social or don't have buddies with the game (I suggest joining a decent clan) - then don't bother. You can always buy on later.

Besides, the headset will work with your other games as well - so, it's a good investment.

The only drawback to having the downloaded version is - if you get a second PS3 or go to a friends house - you can't bring the game with you.

But I sure like being able to fire the game up without switching discs out.

dk3dknight · 02-13-2008, 02:20 PM

If you plan on ever playing it on a pals machine or taking it over somewhere, or have multiple accounts on your ps3 go buy it in stores.

The download is for a single license, you will not be able to take it to a friends house unless you bring your ps3.

The special features on the disc are just some trailers for games that are already out, and a few dev interviews.
