As fans around the world are gearing up to enter a new era of combat this November, we have great news for those of you who plan to secure your copy of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare digitally.

that's pretty cool that they are doing that

This might get me to buy the game sooner rather than later

I completely forgot to do this for Destiny. Stupid ass impulse buys

Wait, you bought Destiny?

This is only really cool if it works like Destiny does. Play for a little while on the X1, get some achievements, open the 360 version and immediately get all those achievements...

I hate that that they are limiting that to digital download only, it's like they are forcing digital download age on us. They should at least give massive discounts to those that buy a hard copy and want to buy a second copy for the next Gen systems.

It is because there is so much less cost associated with digital. Giving two copies of a digital game for the price of one can actually be MORE profitable than selling two physical discs at full price. So, yes, they are forcing the extremely wonderful digital age upon us by giving us more for less in many ways.

As a guy that's 100% digital (cept f'n Skylanders), I'm not at all worried about it. Out of curiosity, do you have the same worries about all your iTunes music or your Kindle books? We're talking about Apple, MS, and Amazon. If I bought my games on GoG I would be worried, even if I bought them on Steam I'd have some concern, but not the others.

If I had held off my Destiny preorder for a day to take advantage of the dual offer, I would have easily made this my 3rd $60 digital purchase for the Xbox rewards offer. But since I didn't, I'll wait and see if the digital price drops before march 2015

I prefer having a disk version as well, but this seems like a pretty good deal

@Fshguy: Yes, I'm a collector and as long as there is a good game to play I will go back and play it. That's what I have a substantial original X-Box games collection.

@futiles: Yes I know.. like I said I know the arguments and your probably 100% dead on right with your reasoning but we collectors can hope and stick together..

Heck we have Flashback Intellivision now!! There is hope in 40 years there will be Flashback 360's...lol.. I'm like one of those radicals though so I know my argument is like throwing a pebble at brick wall.

Of course there will be plenty of rereleases. I think eventually remote game streaming will be feasible and probably more cost effective to get you that "fix" of nostalgia.
