Xbox 360 Compilation Discs

Post by h8b1llg8ts »

I've seen some of those Xbox Live Arcade Compilation discs like:

Arcade Compilation Disc
Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged
Namco Musuem Virtual Arcade

Are these games the actual ones you can download from XBLA? Such as Texas Hold 'Em, can you play these online with other players?

You could do the whole hard drive copy thing. You'd need to have the disc in the drive whenever you wanted to play them though. Which kind of defeats the object somewhat.

But it seems like there cheaper then buying them individually. The disc is cheaper used then buy Texas Hold 'EM alone ...

yeah...that's just how the market is for it...i guess people rather have a digital download as a digital download instead of a bargain disk....their loss is your gain if you get it

touche...i really didnt think about that...but its just not the same as having them and selecting them separately from the dashboard
