It could otherwise have been really cool with the "Ultimate Ultimate BF2042 Limited Edition" diskset version, being a shiny platinum hard-case with stylish BF silk prints and platinum discs inside with the game and all documentaries and media files, music and all.
You are showing your age @CyberDyme ! I've ditched all my game CDs and Music CDs after copying them to drives. I'm guessing you're 50+. I'm in my mid 60's, you have to roll with the times, and hopefully I don't need a collection of plastic to prove I'm a real fan.
@ChugKendallAnd for some reason even PCs since 'Loss10' (windows) I had to do extraordinary stuff to have my CDs and DVDs work. So much better than constant 'Freedom'(TM/R) surveillance on the net.
There seems too much anti-competition going on under various nice narratives that make it look good or convenient. Getting something physical like CD/DVD back then even with occasional error/damage to the physical copy meant that you had to store it well. And it sometimes took up space like, once I had to throw out 300+CDs after that stuff was old and I decided that it was worthless and not going to return to it. But it was me who decided whether it became worthless or not, not some super-wealthy corp or some cartel that is out of touch with reality.
