Should PURCHASED digital games count in your collection?

This. Some of those games get retail releases occasionaly though.

EX: Xbox Triple Pack with Splosion Man, Trials HD, and Limbo. I got it just for Splosion Man... lol

As far as Backloggery-ness goes... I do count them, as I did pay for them... (or someone else did)
However, I much, much, MUCH, rather have a physical copy over digital.
Mostly because I tend to forget about my games if they aren't proudly displayed on a shelf, (I'm just forgetful in general...) but also because I tend to want to play a game more if I can look at the back of the game, crack open the case, and maybe sift through the manual a bit. (my boyfriend doesn't understand this though XD)
Not to mention how gorgeous some covers can be D:
But as much as I like physical copies, making cases for digital-only games seems a little too OCD for me ><;
But I am thinking of purchasing some physical copies of games that I already own digitally... but only the ones I really like :>
(and plus I've heard that the controls for the first Assassin's Creed are waaay better on the XBox/Ps3...)

On the side note, I'm very glad that I'm not the only one who prefers their games cased :>

How does this relate to my question?

There was a steady stream of spam, and the last post cut it off and thought it was funny.
I also posted that at 4 AM during a heat wave and I have no AC.

But back on topic, before when I was talking about my digital games, my 3 Wiiware games and Minecraft and Portal on the PC, and I completely forgot about other games i got from steam, indie game bundles, and Virtual Console. So a advantage is you know what you have.

And at Staf - Angry Birds is a game, If it is not, than Tetris, Space Invaders, Dr. Mario, Donkey Kong, Arkanoid/ Brake Out, Pong and any basic game from early in game history is not a game. Sure its not the best game, and it completely rips off another, and the company is merchandising it to hell for no reason, but it can be played. Its a game.
