Recently it was reported that one of the versions of the Xbox One was potentially not going to have a Blu-Ray drive in it and was going to go digital-only as Microsoft wanted to make a device for the future – forward thinking.
Prototype footage from several of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed titles has leaked, revealing early stages of their development.
Blindfolding myself and clicking a Steam page at random would serve me better recommendations than Steam’s algorithm
Hmm, not sure I agree with that. The recommendations I get are usually pretty good, but then again I have pretty large library of games on Steam and hundreds of them in my wish list, along with lots of curators I follow for it to build recommendations off of. On occasion it will throw me a random FIFA game or something I've never bought or shown interest in, but mostly its decent IMO.

Have there been any reports about offline XB1 owners? What their experiences have been like?
is it known how many consoles are offline?
I keep hearing the mantra that the all digital future is coming. I quite frankly think it's absurd. While Internet speeds will incrementally improve over the next 5 to 7 years, the game sizes for next-gen will double. As long as that disparity exists, and I see no reason to beleive it won't, physical media is going to be here to stay. #deal with it
My digital future has already started. I haven't bought a single disc and I'm loving it. Being able to instantly switch between all my games and having the progress pause and be ready for when I go back to it is amazing. The only problem I can see is lack of storage space, but once they patch in the external hard drives a TB or 2 should take care of that.
I'll probably give up gaming if and when it becomes all digital.
