Can't believe I overlooked this one for so long.. The Outfit, it's a MUST PLAY!

I really need to swap out my PS3 HDD too sometime soon, pretty sick of deleting things for space. I imagine the 500GB I have for my slim 360 won't be filled up, so that's what I'll upgrade to for my PS3.

The PS4/XO definitely needed more than 500GB out the door though.
I love sales for digital only stuff. Anything I can buy physically, I make the utmost effort to do so. However, for stuff that likely wouldn't have gotten a publisher if it hadn't been only digital (BOXBOY!, OctoDad, Battleblock Theater, Trials HD, etc.) I'm very grateful for the strength of the digital distribution systems we currently have.

Well I obviously agree on that point, I was mainly just talking about physical games that are also on the digital stores getting those sales. Even if the sales are amazing, I kind of bite my tongue because I'd rather have a physical copy.

Digital only games though, yes I'd never complain about discounts hehe.

I install all of my games to the HDD so my 250GB drive went quick. I also have a lot of DLC as either add-ons or actual games. I went and got myself a Seagate 1TB external drive. They are the little ones that don't need a power source. It was $55 on Amazon so now I can install practically everything to it. I want to say that the 360 supports up to 4TB.

Ohhh, I getcha in that case. I was SO tempted on the Nintendo sale a few weeks back when Paper Jam was like half off. But I wanted to own it physically, so I had to pass :/

I had an xbox 360 collection for quite some time. (Since it came out) Gamestop had half-off most sports games at one point, so I picked up about 30 games there one time for like 30-40 bucks. I had a collection of good games and crappy games alike, but when Xbox One came out, I sold it to start anew. I have heard for some time now that they were supposed to come out with skate 3 for Xbox one backwards compatibility. Personally Skate 2 was my favorite, but I'll settle for Skate 3. Other than that, selling my collection hasn't killed me too much except for wanting to go back and play PSO Universe, and Skate 2.

This was one "Complete Edition" I never grabbed, looking to get now.

Saw earlier where they noted the PS3 version was the lead. I'm curious how the DLC worked. With Xbox its usually always on disc whereas PS3 uses codes more.

The Xbox 360 version is on four discs. All of the DLC is integrated within the story. The save file from the vanilla game is not compatible with the re-release.

Interesting. I have found the opposite. In any event, the "complete" version on the PS3 should have all of the DLC on the disc.

^ I've found the opposite also but a couple pages back it was mentioned that it may be better on the PS3.
