I'm not so sure, I know that most publishers and developers reckon it'll happen and they're obviously all for it. But I just can't see them cutting out physical discs entirely in favour of digital media because of the simple fact that not everyone has online.
I think it might get to a stage where online digital downloads are commonplace over second hand retail stores maybe, but I just can't see it.
I think if anyone's going to lead the way on this one it could well be Microsoft, looking already on Xbox Live Marketplace a lot of their best games are on there for purchase and download. But it's feasible for their games because their games are only 8gb on average, not anywhere from 17gb-50gb found on Sony's games.
The next wave of consoles will be very interesting to see what's tried out and what directions they all go in, personally I think we'll also have a new competitor as well in Apple. And if they do jump in then I think they'd do very well this time.
