I've gotten pretty good trade in deals ..especially when I started dealing with BB and their 100% extra deals.
Add that to the fact I can get the disk copy for 48.00 (or collectors ed for 55.00) and no way I go digital.
I will never go digital for sports games anyways and won't go many digital until there's a financial gain to do so to offset the lack of trade in ability.

It's fine for those that say they never trade game's in though..

I can vouch for this. I have Cox internet and when my download starts to slow down, I pause it for a few seconds then restart it and it really speeds up.

Might be completely due to their silly "Powerboost" thing (speeds up the first 90 seconds of a big download) and I'm just fooling it, but it works.

Can we get the special edition via digital? Of course this is assuming we won't get that special steel book and cover. I'd like to play at midnight and avoid the hassle of changing discs, but I still think the perks of the special edition is worth the extra 10 bucks.

Yes... in case I didn't make it clear enough in my OP... I pre ordered the special edition digitally.

I still haven't bought into the whole digital delivery system yet. Developers are differently milking that path for extra profits. If I was still in high school or college, maybe I'd go with it because of the whole midnight thing. That being said, these games are never discounted. There are so many games, especially sports, where any Gamestop or Target sells it for $40 already and digitally it's still $60.

Also, has it been confirmed that it's midnight per your location? If it is midnight pacific, there will be a lot of unhappy east coast people. Also, there was no technical issues last year. PSN just doesn't update its store until later in the day.

It's Midnight your time. (Or even Midnight Eastern so West Coast people luck out). I will say my confirmation email for this said the expected play start time was 3/30 at 10PM.

actually it was technical problems because Sony admitted it and apologized and gave us all a $10 gift, which was great from them.
