Do you prefer buying physical or digital games? Why is that? This week on the GoGCast, we take a look at a survey done by GameIndustry.biz, ISFE and Ipsos Mori's GameTrack consumer asking buyers of physical games why they choose boxes over downloads. We break down the stats and share our insights. Plus, Catherine gives her first impressions of Forza Horizon 4 and Leah has all the highlights from Minecon Earth 2018.
