Are We Truly Ready for the Digital Distribution of Video Games

With the upcoming release of the PSP Go, Microsoft launching their Games on Demand service, the Steam service on the PC, the continuous release of downloadable games on both PSN and Xbox Live - are we bringing in the digital age of gaming? TripleChat takes a look into how digital distribution might be upon us for the next generation and how it affects you the customers, retailers, and the distributors. Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for each segment? Does it make economic sense for us to go all digital? After all the digital age has taken over the music industry with services such as iTunes and Amazon's MP3 service.

See what we have to say and what we think of the possibility of full retail console games going digital. More after the jump.
