I've been hitting my local used game shops more looking for Xbox games & checking the few sites I know sell Xbox physicals. I'm also starting a stack of games I already have that aren't in the disc2digital program yet & watching for updates.

I wish we still had game stores here :(

We only have 2 used shops around where I live, & only 1 is worth going to. My local GameStop is just a Funko shop & places like Walmart don't even carry Xbox games anymore. It sucks.

As a Series S owner I hadn't purchased a physical disc for years, but with Disc To Digital I can buy a Series X disc, redeem the licence on my Xbox One, then install and play on the Series S. A handy option to have.

If you buy the Physical you get the benefits of both formats for the same price, stupid if you still buy digital.

Surprised that none of the forza horzion games haven't been added yet

Yeah hopefully they’re added soon

Absolutely true. I personally bought 4 Xbox Series X games on disk just this past month due to the disk to digital program.

I've bought a few more physical games for my Series X because of it.

Over the past month since the initial announcement for Xbox insiders, I purchased more than 20 titles that include this capability, and I appreciate that several support Xbox Play Anywhere so I can use the PC versions.

Is there a place they show what ones are compatible

100%. I’ve started collecting again. I want to support physical games

Same same. Ive now bought two in as many weeks (new) and am actively hunting used discs.

Recently traded my secondary PS5 Slim for an Xbox Series X. Collecting physical games for it so I can do the disc to digital as well. Love that I can play many games on my PC once I get the digital licenses. Hope Square Enix and Bandai Namco sign on with them soon!

I was surprised when i finally got my copy of Control Resonant and it was included. Now i don't need to swap in between Blood of Dawnwalker (finally finished the main story) and Control discs.

Unfortunately, it arrived at the wrong time. Consoles are crazy expensive now, due to AI hardware.

While still not doing it a lot I am doing it more as well. Especially if I can get my hands on steelbooks

Xbox is a failing brand. They wont do more than one more console

Funny because all my Xbox friends bought pcs.

Hmm, might do that myself.

It’s not being talked about enough, tbh. This is a huge W for gamers!

Yeah I drastically prefer buying Physical now. Hunting for deals on disc-to-digital play anywhere games is probably one of the most fun twists to my gaming habits ever. My physical collection is growing at an almost astonishing rate.

Ive been hitting retro game stores and slowly rebuilding my physical collection after years and years of digital only. Its wayyyy cheaper than the Xbox store, even when they have sales. That disk to digital thing is such a game changer.

I haven’t purchased a physical disk in (checks Amazon purchase history ) 9 years because I hate loading them, that changed last week

I bought my first physical game in 11 years because of this. Last physical games I bought were halo mcc and rock band 4.

Not sure if a side effect or intentional. People been buying used xbox one consoles and getting discs just to play on their PC's. Personally I've bought around 40 games (new and used) since the announcement and been jumping off between my pc and series x playing.

Will be covering this on my channel soon

I truly hope Xbox has an active & actual physical presence going forward. Not just Helix but with Series X until it's retired. I told Aaron Greenburg a couple of weeks ago, in person, us gamers REALLY want a physical option on X5. If new movies can get VHS, games can get discs!

Dude, same. Ive been collecting XB1 and Series games like I do with Xbox Original and Xbox 360 since there is a reason to now.

It almost makes me wish I didn't sell my Xbox Series X tbh Almost

We, really gamers, know what is good to us. Not like those....

I'm actually enjoying collecting xsx discs now because of the new disc to digital feature....gives me pokemon vibes 😆

All I see is the same xbot mouth pieces running the same stories to try to convince everyone otherwise. Performative shit use to be believable

The only thing it changed for me is for some games I can play online on PC and don't to pay game pass, other than that it didn't change the way I buy games since I prefer to get full game on disc something Xbox Series X doesn't always offer!

Yep, been out buying more discs. Getting that disc both physically in my collection but with the convenience of digital is brilliant. Big win for Xbox.

I think people are excited about the shiny new features 😂 But yeah it is a nice one.😉

If you only play on one console then this feature has no real benefits

That's you. fuck all counsels

You can’t read or spell. Go back to school
