Internet access!!!

[Statyk]

I honestly prefer buying games online. It's instant, and sometimes cheaper. Plus, you don't have to worry about losing the disc. I can't comprehend why people prefer the retail box purchases in my opinion =\

Anyway, you'll need an internet connection to install the game when purchased online, no matter where it is from. But you CAN play the game perfectly fine offline. This goes with a majority of games, even on Steam. I don't understand why people say they don't like buying games on steam because you need an internet connection to play on steam... No you don't. You just play in offline mode. I've done it before. Only thing is you don't have access to multiplayer or leaderboards (obviously). Other than that, you can play the games just fine offline once they are installed completely. Whether it be purchased through Steam, or their online store, or anywhere else like Amazon digital download.
