Minor convenience. (Destiny)

But if you buy digital there is zero reason to preorder. You can't preload games like you can on steam. There is zero benefit to buying the game before it launches.

Both XB1 and PS4 support preloading.

I don't think I'm even ordering far enough in advance to get much advantage of preloading; I just like having the game in the "ready to install" queue when I'm ready to start.

I usually only "pre" order by a couple days. It's a really minor advantage in convenience.
