With the recent rumors (now confirmed) of Patapon 2 being available only through download, it seems this is possibly a test to see how well a future of digital downloads will withstand if that is your only option. What does "digital only" mean for you? Most people have access to the internet now, but do you prefer hard copies of your games? I personally do. I don't trade in my games, but I do buy used games and this will most likely affect retailers that depend on trade-ins for profit.

There are pros and cons for almost every situation (helping developers vs. helping retailers), but as for me personally if they go completely digital with the PSP2, I'll be somewhat disappointed. I will always choose a disc over a download if the option is available.

I believe there is supposed to be a new entry for Patapon 2 today on the Playstation Blog which I've been following pretty closely lately.
