Kinda hope @IGN realizes that people watch, listen, and read because of the personalities that are there, not that it's just got the IGN name slapped on it.
The purchasing trend is clear because I can no longer go to the store to pick up a game. When I head to Gamestop to pick up a game, they just hand me a download code. No release events at midnight, and guaranteed delivered on launch day shows up 3 days late.
82% of games purchased are digital? Wow, that’s very high.
I recall when I was in the business, we passed by 50% which was a huge milestone.
I wish physical media was here to stay, but the purchasing trend from consumers is clear. I really hope we see a digital promise of trust, transparency, and clarity soon (across all media!).
