Weird to think how the Xbox 360 will turn 18 in November this year.

    This is my biggest reason for not buying the latest gen consoles. They lean heavily towards digital downloads, and I want to be able to unpack the console in 20 years for nostalgia and play a game without worrying if the game store is still available to download it.

    There are physical disc versions, but I get the feeling even there the games won’t work out of the box without and internet connection to the online server/store

      in my experience the “physical” copy of a game now, only gives access to installing a game. But I dont really use consoles so maybe I am misunderstanding how it works.
