Alright lads, long time Flight Simmer, IL-2 and FS9, going to go into the briney deep with SH3 then SH4.

Your, opinion DVD or DL? Does the DL have SF on it....why would it? Newbie questions. Great forum and great information...you guys are awesome!

Both have SF. You should probably get the DVD, you can install the game as much as you want.

DVD is always better. Then you always have a copy ready to go, without the worry if it has been installed to many times.

Welcome, Wilcke!

With respect to your question, I have the DVD, but would just as readily purchased the DL version. I preferred to have a the printed material, so I went with the former. If you purchase the D2D DL version, you're not limited to a specified number of downloads, so that shouldn't weigh into your decision. Not to mention you can always backup your DL to a DVD.
