Nope $38.98. Not much of a discount.

The downloadable content compiled in the GOTY edition is hit-and-miss (mostly very good), but the Broken Steel add-on essentially makes it so you can explore the "desert" and achieve added missions afterwards. That's something you can't do with the core game, so you can plan on spending an extra $10 if you're going to want to meander around and barrel through the extra quests after you finish the game.

$27.99 for Fallout 3 and Broken Steel alone is well worth it. But again, who knows when the GOTY edition will trickle down in price.

Was expecting (hoping?) ACII to be $30, which was what I paid for #1 in the GB. Pass.

Thanks, I think I'll hold out a bit longer. Since I'm dual-console, I have a better chance at a deal. :)

If you are dual console, you NEED to get Fallout 3 on the 360. It's pretty buggy on PS3.

In other news, Critter Crunch for PSN is $3.49 on Amazon right now.

You'd have to be fucking stupid to not pick it up for $3. ;)

I'm kidding...but really....fucking stupid.

Critter Crunch is one of the best puzzle games of the last few years. Worth $7, definitely worth $3.50.

Apparently, everyone agrees. Two hours later and it's standing at "15% claimed".

Was just about to post that. I was going to consider biting on it if the price was right. It was not.

3 hours, 19%. :lol:

I wonder if that number has any affect on future deals pricing?

The world's most useless GOTY edition ever since all included bonus content is available as free DLC already.

Of course, if you're not online, there's no reason on earth to buy this game.

If it's set up like it should be then the addon content will run from the disc thereby saving you the hard drive space of installing those updates which would be pretty useful for someone with a 20 gb hard drive
