Digital or physical?

Retail.

Often cheaper than digital. And makes you a more selective purchaser, so none of this buying stuff you'll never play just because it was cheap in a sale.
 
Seeing as games seem to be ~30GB these days and I'm currently stuck with a 3mb line I prefer physical discs, but the prices of keys and steam sales means that most of my games aren't.
 
Since getting fibre i've been buying digital more and more, but will get the occasional physical game depending on special edition or price.
 
Unless its a rare or collectable box or disk set I'll take digital everytime. Takes up no space on my bookshelf for a start I used to have racks of them. I was looking for an old game the other day couldn't find the disc anywhere, probably lost in a house move or perhaps in my mum's attic somewhere.

I bought the first 6 original Tomb Raider games in the steam sale lately for 99p each. I got given an old laptop recently so just install the steam client and they're ready to play, something to do while on the train etc. Probably about the only games it will play I've got the original discs lying around somewhere but this is much easier and no need to have discs in the drive for game's CD check, etc.
 
Digital. Much more convenient, no chance of losing anything (especially games on Steam - I can download them all as many times as I need to), and accessible from anywhere.
 
Whichever was DRM Free.

Physical ties into digital nowadays anyway so all depends how fast your internet connection is.
