    I don’t really understand preordering digital products. They’re not going to run out of stock. At least with physical games, you can get limited edition physical goodies with it.

      They give you limited edition digital goodies I think

      Not that that’s worth paying double for a product you haven’t even seen yet

      I’m probably going to pre-order GTA 6 sometime this week because preloading is already available and I don’t want to be trying to download the same 200gb game at the same time as hundreds of millions of other people. I’m sure the servers can handle it, but I’d still feel better just downloading earlier. I’d like to be completely sure that I’ll be ready to start playing after work on Thursday, and I’ll feel more confident in that if I already have it downloaded in advance.
