Xbox 360 Fanboy

Ugh. No sale then. Looks like I won't be picking up that elite after all.

Now we know there's absolutely no reason to buy these titles, as you can get almost any of 'em brand new for less than 15$ (except psychonauts) and save some HDD sapce...

Xbox Originals
Achievement Unloc (Wait - How did you do that, expect me to actually produce something good?)

Come on do they really expect people to pay $$ for a game that is no different than buying the $2 version at gamestop? I don't think they grasp the number of people who would shell out $20+ dollars if they could play Halo1 online.

This just keeps getting better and better!

Yeah, I would rather pay less, have a game on disc, and save hard drive space. I'm not sure what they were thinking here.

not a smart move. alot of people wont get them if they dont have achievements

They want me to buy buggy (they are buggy, they have the exact same BC problems the disk ones do, they don't even bother to fix those errors), none-dashboard supported (again, you can't access FL and things, exactly like the disk versions.)over priced ports of there old games when i can buy them cheaper and get more for my money in a store?

LOL.

seriously, achievements are addictive. We all know that. Some like to say "it's supposed to be about the game!". I have to admit that cheevos are and awesome thing, and make a game more fun for me. Speaking of that... just hit 10 grand last night with Assassin's Creed! w00t!

Yea, these WILL sell , but not as widely as they would have if they would have enhanced them.

Sorry to be off-topic but is anyone else not able to sign into live? I was looking forwrad to my free game download and I cant get in, needless to say if this carries on for the rest of the day i'm gonna be PISSED!!!!

Well it saves me money so I'm okay with no cheevos. I will just not buy any of them. Oh well, but it's good for people who never played these games the first time around and can't find them.

I mean, you can find them used everywhere but when you want it NOW...well downloads are sweet...

Well then I'll just keep my money, the achievements were the only reason why I was thinking about getting some of the old games.

Microsoft, you're not Nintendo, you can't pull stuff like this and make it work.

Well, I guess I won't be buying ANY of these. If they were enhanced, with achievements and such, I would consider buying them in the future (Jan-Feb) but since they DON'T have this, I'll save my cash-strapped ass and not buy ANY of them.

They're going to take away backward compatibility because of this, aren't they?

So go buy them cheaper at the store. What's changed? I still don't understand what the problem is. It's essentially a completely optional alternative.

@btex, I didn't like the word 'cheevos' either the first time I used it, but it's really grown on me.

try it out sometime.
