Xbox Live Day One Subscription Steelbook

[rasmusvn]

I don't have a problem with DLC like the two add-ons for GTA IV, but there are many cases where DLC is wrong in some way.

In terms of owning it physically, it doesn't matter that much to me.

Every time I insert a disc I'm reminded of how noisy the disc drive is. It's a very serious problem for 10-15 seconds

It's nice to hear other people's perspectives

Keeps me grounded a bit more

Suppose we all have our own opinions on everything

I know I'll thoroughly enjoy the virtual "Day one" T-shirt I will be getting for my avatar. Oh, and my virtual clothes selection is bigger than my physical one.

Well spent MS-points.

@ Cosmic

Content being removed like that is certainly troublesome, same goes for servers going offline. That being said I haven't had any problems of that sort.

Hopefully, they'll get better at that in a more digital age.

The issue with not having DLC on a physical disk is, say the Xbox for example, years down the line, DLCs and game updates will stop beig hosted on their servers anymore and access to this content will be impossible for legitimate customers. I use the Xbox as an example as there have been various DLC removed from the XBL server. One I can think of off the top of my head is the DLC for Naruto Rise of a Ninja. The DLC for that game can no longer be downloaded. Even from your purchase history. So if your HDD packed in and you decide to get all nostalgic down the line, you'll still be able to play the original Unpatched version of a game, but DLC is a no go and if the original version is pretty much unplayable without the patch, what can you do then?

This is why I am against DLCs and other digital content which aren't available on disks. Including patches. Atleast with GOTY or complete editions, I will always be able to play the games without the worry of patches and such.

This is the reason I searched high and low for the version of Borderlands 1 GOTY that came with the DLC on disk

For whatever reason I got Borderlands for Xbox and some GOTY just came with DLC codes

hmmm dlc i would rather play the long game and wait for goty editions unless it is something i cant wait to pla and a goty looks unlikely

EB have this available to preorder for $88, but doesn't mention anything about a steelbook case.

Knowing the way we get ripped off here in Australia, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a piece of cardboard.

Steelbook holding a dlc code. MS is trying way too hard to get your money. Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[web_slinger_62]

To be fair, it doesn't cost anymore than the code itself, so we're getting a limited edition steelbook for free

there is a bit of a difference between a bug and an unfinished game, as a lot of the time bugs happen at random, i had one that left me unable to finish the new tombraider without restarting, its different from an incomplete game though
