No it doesn't.

And also the difference is i can simply redownload if there's any problems. With a disc you'd need to buy another one.
It does install the full game from disc.

And yes, you can always redownload a digital copy as opposed to a broken disc.

Yes it does, all games on disc have to be fully installed on PS4, after that the disc is just used for authentication. The PS4 starts installing the game automatically as soon as you insert the disc.

As has already been said, disc games take up just as much hard drive space as digital games.

Because the whole game is installed to the HDD, the disc is only used to check you actually own the game. Any damage to the disc is much less likely to cause an issue than the previous generation.

It's a simple choice of cost Vs convenience. Worth it for some people, not for others.

Others have already said it, but yes it does.

Good thing with disc is you can sell them once you're down with it, but I like digital copies because of the ease of switching to a different game.

The other advantage of digital is I can play any game remotely when I'm away from home

I completed this around an hour ago, it's a good game, i think you'll all enjoy it. I'll probably play Minecraft again for a few hours.

I wouldn't have thought so. They are all great games in their own right, even if you don't know the back story.

You probably don't have to but it's better if you have just to have better understanding of the characters and their relationships.

Game Collection have ballsed up for me, came home to be greeted with

PAYMENT PROCESSING ISSUE - Unfortunately, we’ve had to cancel your order as we’ve had trouble when trying to process your chosen payment method. Your payment was declined by your bank. We’re not sure exactly why as they don’t tell us that sort of information. We’re sure it’s nothing to worry about but please contact them to find out what the problem was and to get it resolved as quickly as possible. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Rang Barclaycard to find out whats going on, they (TGC) haven't even attempted to take a payment.

Last time I'll be using TGC.

Ouch. Hope you manage to get a copy from somewhere else soon.

How long ago did you order? They said something on Teitter about some orders/payments expiring. Have you had a new card between ordering the game and today? Might explain why they weren't able to take a payment if they still had the old card's details.

I was referring to YouTube reviews. I noticed the regulars aren't uploading their videos.

Just played the prologue and.... Wow. Just wow.

Not saying anything else until after Tuesday when everyone else gets the game. Wouldn't want to spoil anything. But you're in for a treat guys.

Note - there's a 5GB update for the Multiplayer and a stack of other bonus features. But the single player game is playable without it.
