Even with tactics like that, Blockbuster still went bankrupt.

Never even thought something like that was possible. Nearly ended up NOT getting a hard copy of the CD because 2 Blockbuster employee asshats decided they wanted to buy up Skyrim in bulk volume and charge their customers premium price Thankfully, the lynch mob mentality of customers like myself in the line behind them convinced the sales clerk to limit them to one a piece. Got burned this way when Skyrim came out. And have been playing non stop rave session since 9:01pm PST yesterday. Not to rub it in, but I pre-loaded to avoid this very issue. The FedEx/UPS arrangement setup svcks even more. There's this erroneous assumption that all PC gamers around the world have excellent, unmetered broadband.Ĭat Haines Posts: 3385 Joined: Fri 9:27 am Nowadays a retail copy can have everything from the complete install (GTA5) to an empty disc apart from a Steam link. If you wanted the inevitable Day One patches etc then you'd at least have an option in your client. The pattern used to be: the complete install would be in the box, and it would be playable. Given that GTA5 retail actually did ship with a bunch of DVDs, it's bad that Bethesda did this. Online retailers didn't put up a warning and there was nothing on the official Bethesda portal or the box.

There might have been the odd article on the net but unless you were buying a physical copy from a retailer and actively googled 'what's the size of the install' (and who does unless you're getting a key), you wouldn't have been told. My point was rather for the poor sods languishing on rubbish broadband with severe caps who have posted elsewhere. Yeah, agreed on the two hours thing, I have to say.
