That's pretty much why I think it's obseletePretty much. Permanent games that only you can play? Yes please! No more having to share games when you don't want to, no more trying to trade games for a small percentage of their overall price for a loss. It's a lot more convenient since you can simply sign in to an account and download games you already own on any PC. It's that simple, and that's why I don't look anywhere else for games. No more physical copies for me.
