That’s right, a flat 20% off all physical media for games for all consoles, handhelds, and PC.

The move most likely is meant to bring players back to the physical model for gaming as services like Steam from Valve have converted most sales to a digital means where players simply download the game directly to their local hard drives or consoles.
