Those days are mostly gone, but gamers have, up to now, usually been able to rely on one thing they could literally get their hands on - a disc. But when pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto 6 went live on Wednesday, developer Rockstar said customers who opted for the physical edition would get a box that just contained a code for a digital download instead. It's not the first time a physical edition has launched this way. But if the makers of one of the biggest franchises in entertainment history has decided to follow suit, does that mean the disc is dead?

How to See the Giant Asteroid That Will Pass by Earth This Weekend
The asteroid will be visible for several nights from different parts of the world. We'll tell you when and where to look, and what equipment you'll need to spot it.
