Lately a new trend has begun to pop up in the video game industry, and it’s not a positive trend according to many.
The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.
It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did
They included physical disc back then
I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot
Getting free games is never a bad thing and Amazon Luna has new offerings for Fallout fans looking for free adventures in the Wasteland.
Trevor Walker said: Fighting games have always been able to simultaneously experiment and innovate while staying true to their roots in the best of ways. Mechanics change, crossovers take place, and evolution occurs. One of the best examples of all three can be seen in the coveted guest character.
so people will buy it from their stores and make the company money, derp
I hate these retailer exclusivities
This might be the worst thing this gen has brought us, even worse than the continuous patching of unfinished games
Sometimes the codes for retail exclusive are reusable. Two worlds two and operation flashpoint dragon rising have exclusive pre order codes and they are accessible by anyone no matter the games purchase source. So it isn't all bad nor suprising. Money is the goal not gamers opinion of the practice.
I find myself this sort of thing is a bit irritating. I can't even say how many different options you had for LittleBigPlanet (and LBP2) when deciding where to pre-order from. It's a bit of an odd choice, although the example used of the AC:B beta being an exclusive part of the pre-order to Gamestop (I wouldn't know, in the UK) was a good one especially since you can guess how much money GS got from the people that otherwise wouldn't have pre-ordered from them.
There are so many different editions to games nowadays. Standard, "collectors", "limited" (which rarely is limited), "special", and then other editions (like with AC:B the "codex" edition, among others). I mean I like special editions and whatnot as much as the next guy when we're not getting ripped off (I'm looking at you EU LBP2 collectors edition) but do we really need all of these editions? I like some special editions but it was much easier when we just had the old simple style of the standard version of a game which had all you need.
As long as they go on the marketplace after a while I don't have a problem with these
