Wonder how long they were working on it? Was it on the backburner too long, and they want to try and recover their money?

I wish they would jump in the Sega Steam bandwagon and do a PC/Steam release.


Looks like this is getting a release in the US and they're putting it on PS4 as well.

I got my copy in 2009 for $20 new and stayed at that price level as late as last year from what I've seen.

Great set of games all in one!

So how are we doing with last gen collecting?

Almost 2 years into the 8th gen consoles and more than six month from last post. Has the field changed? Now that Xbox One is backwards compatible with the list growing I see prices moving.

I didn't follow anything that was being re-released with all DLC. I don't know when but borderlands 2 got a GOTY edition (not sure how much contente there is inside and if there's even MORE dlc for that game not included on the two disc set)

Just checking amazon you can find more of these:

I forgot that thing even existed.

There's also a somewhat new remaster of PS2 hitman games. (includes 2-3-4)

I have that copy of Borderlands 2 in a guide that is linked in my signature. I was given advice from CRTGAMER to make it an bit more cohesive but I haven't had the time. I have listed what it comes with. It is missing the 2nd level cap and the 5 mini campaigns that corresponds to certain holidays.

I didn't notice your guide until now, looks cool!

I notice that some games that are both avaible for the PS3/360 are only listed on the 360 section, maybe you can add a line that says "Avaible on:" and if there's a diference list it like "360 has two disc's, one for install other for playing. PS3 Comes in a single bluray"

I have more knowlegde of PS3 games since is the console i play the most and ALL the stores around here are build to sell PS3 games, so i can check them once in a while to see if they have new compilations/re-releases.

I planned on doing the platforms seperately at first because, as noted, the PS3 has the game and DLC on one disc while the Xbox 360 has the DLC on a second disc. That second disc is sharable for the most part. That's the key advantage.

Edit: When I have a moment I will devote some more time and flesh out the list a bit more. Having the PS3/360 under one list is better after some thought. Damm: I will ask you for some help in the future.
