Swag Saturday: Final Fantasy spinoff pack (PSP)

If you're like us, you're ready for The Future of Digital Entertainment™ and want to get rid of all that silly, antiquated physical media still laying around the house. We're using some for coasters (something's gotta hold our Zima!), some for Halloween treats later this month, and some for Swag Saturday giveaways.

We're hoping that you're not like us and are instead hungrily searching for your chance to win a copy of both Dissidia Final Fantasy and Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (on UMD, of course). Leave a comment below letting us what you're going to do with your physical media when the future is upon us and there's no turning back. We'll choose one winner at random after the comments are closed 24 hours from now. See you in the future!

At that time, we'll randomly select one winner to receive Dissidia Final Fantasy ($40 ARV) and Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII ($20 ARV)

a nice shiny wind chime type thingy

I will likely throw old media at the kids on my lawn. Damn kids!!

Use them for coasters like I do with old hard drive platters.

give them to my kids

I'll keep them for the nerd cred, and then when we're out of fossil fuels, I'll burn them for heat.

Use my game discs to make sophisticated wall art to sell and pay for all the games I'll have to rebuy as digital copies.

Build a shelter

Continue to play them until they stop. Because that's what they are made for.

I will use it to feed my robot army

I'd be damn crazy If I didn't keep it. Back when I was younger, I'd save up my lunch money to buy DC games. I'd never dispose of my DC collection.

I'll just continue to play my physical media even when the future is here :P
I still play my nes, snes, gensis games even though I could go digital on them... It's just so much more satisfying to have to blow in the game over and over until it works and finally get it to work then just have it work :P

Frisbees

I'm going to keep them in brown, cardboard boxes for easy storage. I will open those boxes up occasionally say 'oh yeah, that was awesome' then close never to be seen again.

I will use them to create a weapon of unimaginable destructive power

use it for bedding

keep as tokens

Planning on being "that guy" who never gives up his 8-tracks or his Laserdisc player, except with UMD's and Memory Stick Pro Duo's

I will hold my physical media and laugh when everyones digital media is destryed due to a freak EMP accident.

Well Im going to keep all my physical discs and keep them in a safe, and when the end of the world comes and all the internet gets shut down, I'll get out my safe and start playing my physical copies cause you know I cant download my digital games anymore.

Teach them to reproduce, of course.

burninate them, those foul relics

Honestly, I already use CDs from old computer games as coasters...

Keep it. I like to collect games in their original form and play them that way.

Build a fort for sure! I'm ready for the all digital future myself...

I'll make Castle out of them. Seems fun.

Play them while I can

Into a trash compactor!

Solace (3rd main post) and I are going to have it for dinner.

I am going to take it all to a compactor and have it made into Walle.

I'll probably still keep em.
I like the looks of UMDs

Bury it

Keep it, duh...

Mod like there is no tomorrow.

I plan to take my physical media and make a collection of fine hats of them. I will strut about town wearing my fine physical media hats and nothing else, extolling the virtues of my new "digitally downloaded" clothes while also pointing out the vintage quality of my hats.

IT SHALL BE A BRAVE NEW WORLD!

I'm donating all my stuff to charity.

make a library

I will still be using it.

I'm going to pack it up and put it in my closet to pull out on a rainy day when I'm feeling nostalgic.

I would put all of my physical media in a time capsule and bury it in my backyard where I would then dig it up 50 years later for my kids to experience.

I will build a fort out of my physical media...a fort of memories.

Display them on the wall like trophies.

Create a disk launcher and infuse them with different elements based on numbers...

wait, Bionicles?

Physical media may take up room in my house, however I think it's nice to keep around as more of a collectors reasoning. It is nice to pick up the case and look at some classic games every once in a while.

microwave them!! yum~ =P

probably just put it in a glass case

I'll store them somewhere safely and forget them. One day I'll be pleasantly surprised at these fossils.

Keep it close so that when I die someone has to pry it out of my cold dead hands. You hear me? COLD DEAD HANDS!

Im going to keep it and pass it all down to my kids.

the less junk coaster the better

Keep them..they might be worth something someday....
