Poll: Pre-order Incentives (Physical vs. Digital)

[manythings]

Just saw another post about L.A. Noire's multiple special preorders (depending on who you preorder with) and it reminded me that we've seen, or at least I believe there's been, a decline in preorder bonuses that are real-life in favour of digital incentives.

I'm of the opinion that digital incentives are better since they can (or should) bring greater value to the game experience and greater replayability. Physical incentives look cool and are kind of interesting but after about 20 mins most of them are, at best, an ornament or just plain clutter taking space.

What does everyone else think? Good change? Bad change? Irrelevant change?

Thing is, on PC (of which are the only pre-orders I'd care about) digital incentives are pretty easy to download just as mods. Hence why I prefer physical incentives.

That glowing Alma figurine is better than any reskin, you know?

To you, to me it's cool until it's in my way which is mostly my own fault I'll admit but it's what goes into making my decision.
