I haven't had one issue with the original or the GOTY edition on the 360.

Fallout 3 has to be one of the best games ever made but probably the worst functioning game I've played since playing games on the Tandy 1000.

Those were some great games but 8500 is just about 500 too much for such a sweet system. Throw in some of those 5" discs and I might reconsider.

I have the Xbox 360 version and believe me, it's not perfect either. But yeah, after more than 200 hours spent in the game I can't add too much.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Fallout is a mess on PS3...playable but fairly unstable. I find myself avoiding sidekicks and certain weapons because they seem to be freeze prone.

The 360 being more like a PC makes the porting simpler, I would think.

Hmm. I definitely don't need any of the games on that list that I don't already have, but I could certainly see the logic in finally picking up Ratchet and Clank: TOD for essentially $7 since I'll spend $20 on RB DLC anyway.

Re: Amazon Video Game Deal Thread .

Thinking about the GoW Collection, but I literally have no interest in the $20 PSN credit, and I looked.

Would anybody be interested in purchasing that $20 credit off of me?

Is there Rock Band DLC in the Amazon PSN store? I couldn't find any.

Anyway, this deal is matching a Best Buy Cyber Monday deal, where you buy from a list of select games and get a $20 PSN card (which gives you a lot more buying options than the amazon store does).

Foiled. I had it in my head that they'd be giving me a PSN code and not a credit to their store.

I may have to peruse the BB list.

Same exact thing here. I even have my MW2 $20 GC waiting to be used which would sweeten the deal even more for me...but I would never use that $20 PSN credit.

Yeah, I have $40 credit from the "Spend $80" deal last month, so it's free but it's still not good enough for me. I'm so spoiled by deals

I was planning on buying Pixeljunk Shooter and Monsters, so I might as well do it this way.

Picked up LBP GOTY at $50 and will sell off my old copy to recoup a chunk of the cost.

Want to get Monsters Deluxe for the PSP and am hoping there will be some kind of sale when Shooter is released.

Weird. At Amazon, found the PS3 Network $20 deal, added Resistance to my cart. Went back to the PS3 page to confirm details, and now can't find any mention of the promotion.
