Are you guys preordering the digital from the PSN store or a hard copy? I normally prefer discs but I gave my brother my old Ps4. As I understand it he will have access to any digital games I buy also right since I left him on my account?

The way it works is that you log into his account on your PS4, then activate it as your primary console. Then he logs into your account on his console and activates it as his, you will both get access to both libraries. Games he buys, you can use and vice versa.

To download their games, you just make sure they are offline then log into their account, go into their library and activate the download for anything they have that you want, then log off and go back to your account. Game will now be available to you.

Thing to note is that if you pre-order, since "your" account is on his console, the option where it will automatically pre-download 48 hours before (usual time, RDR2 is available now 7 days prior to launch probably due to size) will activate on his console, not yours. So you need to manually go into your library and activate the download if you buy it as a pre-order.

I can't remember the last time a game had so much universal pre-launch anticipation and hype. Is this the console generation's defining game?

It kind of skews the reviews already imo, people are so excited for it that they will really try to find a positive spin on everything questionable about it.

I have no idea why I thought this game was releasing on the 21st... I requested the damn wrong week off. FAIL

I like this kind of game anyways, but half the reason I'm excited and preordered when I normally don't os because I trust Rockstar not to inject a ton of SJW bullshit into their games. They're irreverent to -everything-.

Bestbuy just sent me an email that my preorder isn't showing up until fucking Dec. 31 lol. What in the mother of fuck.

And they followed up quickly that it's back to Oct. 26. Good prank, fuckers.

one nice thing about going physical on xbox one is you can load from disc (whatever happens to install) and play off that, and later when the game goes on sale digitally you can flip to digital and it'll preserve the install and just update the status flags from disc to digital. PS4 still requires you to UNINSTALL and REINSTALL, its fucking retarded.

i prefer physical for SP games because I tend to play them a lot for a short window, then I am done. So I'll trade it back in, even a 50% back isn't too bad. I limit myself to just 1-2 physical games too per system, so I "force" myself to play/finish the game. I always feel like digital games are ones I will "get to some day" but end up fucking around with other stuff, still haven't finished AC Origins (DLC), Far Cry 5, FF15, and a bunch of other games I own digitally but games I buy on disc (God of War, Spider-Man, Tomb Raider, etc) I tend to play and finish and trade since its a good $$ incentive to trade in while trade values are high.

multiplayer games tho are 100% digital, since I play for 1-2 hours in random spurts like COD, Destiny, etc and fuck swapping discs.

and yeah I got that msg on RDR 2 as well. I double dipped, have it both on X and PS4 and i'll fuck around with MP on both systems, hopefully some big money exploits are open the first few weeks.

Pre-ordered the basic digital option for Xbox one on my phone via Microsoft.com, and was able to preload it without even turning on the Xbox.

I nearly had a heart attack reading your post. It's a good thing I was able to get to the second line.

man can you just imagine the shockwave that'll go through the gaming community if RDR 2 somehow ends up being utter trash like mass effect andromeda

I was very #triggered for a minute there. Especially when the preview on my phone didn't give a date, so I was expecting a week or less delay. Saw Dec. 31 and about shit myself.

Grabbed the One X digital ultimate version, pre loaded and ready to go. Still have the physical PS4 ultimate on order and not sure if i'll keep it or not.
