If I understood correctly at launch they did not manage, but later managed to compress it better.
This was comparing the size of the full digital version at launch and currently.

I guess that makes sense. I was thinking that by making at least one of the games digital, it forces you to go to the online store, where you can't avoid seeing the advertisements for other games. Therefore, while you are downloading your "free" game you might see other stuff you want to buy.

In this game you just pop in the disc/cart and it autodownloads the 2nd and 3rd game, no need to go to the e-shop/store

True that is what they want but when they move to all Digital the price does not drop and my paycheck does not get bigger. so for me, it will decrease the number of games I can buy.

But the way they see it is if you buy a used physical game they don't get that profit a 2nd time. 2 people got to play their game and they only got paid once for it. They'd rather have the money than let more people play their game for less $. That is truely why they are trying to kill the physical market and that is why I buy physical as much as I am able.

Arseen:
Yep.
Only digital -> I not paying for downloads.
