Whats the point of buying physical games?
Another big plus: There are no subscriptions needed for physical games; they're always yours. What's more, unlike digital games, physical games have a resale value. This value can even rise above the original purchase price if the game becomes a collector's item.

Do physical games download faster than digital?
It installs faster because you no longer have to download the main game files, since they're already on physical media. When you buy a game digitally the main game files are downloaded and then installed; with a physical disc you already have the main game files on the disc so you only need to install them.
