Question: is the Augmented Edition extra content worth the extra $7? And Amazon rep, be warned: there are a lot of idiots here. But if you're familiar with the internet at all, that's probably not a surprise... :lol:

You guys still HAVE Blockbuster stores? Most of the ones in my area have closed by now. As far as Netflix goes, I'm probably going to keep the streaming and ditch the discs. Right now, I'm still plenty happy with what Netflix has on streaming. I'm using it for TV shows primarily at the...

Well, the 40% / 50% split is better than the usual individual game / pack discount differential they have... Too broke for these right now, though. Oh well.

That's what I'm hoping for, but until there's more info on what the pack IS and if it's any different from the old one I'm not buying.

Steam has the Oddboxx - all four titles in the Oddworld series - for $14.99. During the summer sale, I got it for a little over $5.00, and the bundle should hit that price again during their next sale. Unless you're REALLY against getting the game on Steam, it's probably a better option given...

TF2 is going on four years (came out fall 2007), and still has a thriving, active community even before the free to play change. I can almost guarantee that none of the 360 / PS3 games the guy you quoted listed off will last as long as TF2 has (and will). This guy gets it. One of the best...

Yeah, clearly I'm a noob. :roll: The hats haven't changed a single goddamn thing about the servers I've played on. Personal experience tells me you're wrong, because NOBODY PLAYS A VIDEO GAME FOR HATS. As far as the griefing and cheating goes, there are already server plugins to ban free...

You two are fucking idiots. THE HATS DON'T AFFECT GAMEPLAY. NEITHER DOES THE STORE. And if you're playing on a server where trading disrupts gameplay, then you're on the wrong server. Seriously, I don't understand the argument that cosmetic items ruin a game somehow, or that having the...

Figure it out yourself. There's 25+ games on sale - we're not going to do the research for you.

Flat discount instead of pack discount is good. I'm going to hold off for a bit to make sure that Steam or anyone else doesn't run a more pressing sale, but bare minimum I'm getting Fallout 1 and 2, and probably the Earthworm Jim games. And maybe Descent. And I always thought Evolva sounded...

After DJ Hero showed up at Big Lots, I guess we have proof that Activision's hardware bundles bombed a few Christmases ago... Even for $20, it's not worth it.

Not that this means anything substantial, but my roommate has a Vader Mimobot drive and seems happy with it. No idea how it compares to this one, though.

TF2 has NEVER really been updated beyond the bug fixes. The PC version has a thriving community and a ton of official updates that added new weapons, cosmetic items, and even a few new modes of play to the game. The console version is TF2 frozen at launch, and there's not much reason to play...

Just to reiterate: You're both wrong. You buy the pass, you get all of the DLC. End of story.

Based on the community reaction, I wouldn't count on it - the Rock Band fans almost rioted when Harmonix rereleased Bon Jovi and Queen tracks as "RB3 versions" (with keys, harmonies, and Pro Mode support). So, four extra cases and more goodies on top of that? I guess I'm in. :)
