Well it wouldn't be free to begin with, and tell me do you download any old 2 year content for $?
Sure with Fallout and some of the Oblivion stuff it was big and worth some cash, but how many are downloading it now?
On the other subject I really hope they don't make the next round of consoles digital download only. No competition on prices would suck and games would never get cheaper, not just the DLC.
I doubt they would offer older games, but their content they should!
Forza 3 is one of the best racing games I've played.
I mostly just use XBLA to download extra multi levels.
Does PSN or Wii have any decent downloadable games on them? I've heard of Flower, but not much else.... besides rehashed old games.
I don't mind achievement points for finding things, but I do then tend to use a 'faq' list to find them...just to get the achievement and so I don't have to redo the game because I've missed one somewhere.
That kind of defeats the purpose...I admit.
I really didn't like the whole Prince of Persia need to collect so many orbs to unlock the next bit of play. I know they were trying to give you a reason to do the section again now that it is "freed" and lush and beautiful, but it was a chore.
In fact most treasure hunting is a chore to extend gameplay, unless you get something...and I don't mean "getting" to go to next level.
Totally agree...they sit there and tempt you to die to get something...how does that help gameplay?
Those flags in Assassin's Creed were a bit much! How many of you got them all? or wanted to?
How does a 3D game work? Is it just like a 3D movie where you wear eye glasses...like with the Shrek one? Why do you need a special Tv...wón't it reduce sales if you need the latest tv?
I just think it's funny that Sam is clean shaven and now Max Payne looks like the bum....
I'm glad they aren't releasing Splinter Cell yet...too many great games coming!
I think Assassin's Creed would make a great series of movies.
Is it true Venetica isn't coming out on PS3?
I know we will have the usual PS3 vs. 360 screen and vid comparisons for Assassins C2, and the PS3 version will link to the PSP game with extra weapons etc., but I think only the 360 and PC get Venetica?
Can you imagine missing out on Pink Floyd by one day? Poor guy!
Still he got to see Venice...that's more than I have so far. I guess I'll have to pretend when I'm playing those games (though the locals will all be trying to kill me!)
@ Chris339
Isn't that the truth every end of year? Way too many games to buy!!
Venetica looks really good but yeah may be overshadowed despite coming up with Venice first (at least publically)!
I'll try to get both, but there are so many good games. I'm personally glad they delayed a lot for next year.
Man that's a good deal...free Halo ODST and $100 off...it's almost a shame I got mine earlier..but it was a refab and was really cheap, so I can't complain.
Is this deal for US or UK too?
Is the Elite still only going to come in black?
OMG go crawl under a rock
I love strategy type games and the Wii doesn't have a lot of them...I'll have to have a look at this. Great review.
Hey bud the rating system for games was in before the current Labor government was....You think Howard if he was still in or TurnBULL now would change it?
Lol...better blacklist most opinion/commentary sites then. Then newspapers that have a variety of writers. And mags. Most sites not run by one person have a variety of opinions on them. Some opinions other authors on the same site will share and some they won't.
I don't think it's just an MS thing,though paying for Gold is a sticking point...maybe they should give the free content for Gold members...
