What's the last physical copy PC game you bought?

The Orange Box, I think, since it was cheaper than buying it digitally. Not really any difference in that case since it's basically just a Steam code in a box.
 
I bought the Collector's Edition of Reaper Of Souls.

Other than that? Dunno, it's probably been over ten years.... Star Wars: Empire at War maybe?
 
i bought divinity original sin for like $15 at best buy a few months ago, it was on clearance. basically just a steam key in a box (had a disc too, threw that away) but I still haven't played :(
 
WoW: WotLK.

Apparently it was released in 2008. I may not have remembered the date, but I can remember the last few hours of that night pretty well.
 
GTA5.

Currently wondering whether to buy MGS5 or a new GPU which would include the game anyway. At €45, buying a physical copy is currently the cheapest way to get MGS5 PC if buying an Nvidia code from someone doesn't count. Digital game prices are ridiculous in Europe.
 
Skyrim and it came with the hardback official strategy book too for free. Book alone was worth the cost of the retail game imo so it was a win/win.
 
I bought Assassin's Creed 1 and Borderlands for some strange reason in June 2011. They were pretty cheap and are still sitting on my game shelf. I played Assassin's Creed for all of five minutes.
 
Last one I bought was a CD Jewel case for Terra Nova Strike Force Centauri that I ordered online. This was in fall of 2013, so the GOG version wasn't out at that point and back then I had little faith it would ever find its way there.

Pretty much my only reason for getting physical copies of PC games at this point is if that they're old titles that I cannot get anywhere else.
 
Bought the wife the elder scrolls anthology thing for her Alienware Alpha, earlier this year. Of course the discs will probably never see the insides of a drive thanks to the steam keys in the package.
 
Definitely a Blizzard game, because I like their special editions
sucker on forehead
so I guess Reaper of Souls?
Well that's an expansion, so I guess Heart of the Swarm?
Oh wait... I guess Wings of Liberty, then.
 
Skyrim, but i just used steam-key anyway.
Still map and soundtrack was nice addition, i never used.
It was cheaper than any digital option, so thats that.
