Damn why didn't they have that in the conference? That's big news.

Its a great feature but I doubt the pricing will ever be competitive enough to save you buying the disc and then having re-sale value on the disc.

ignore

The most new feature packed E3 from microsoft I think. The xbox 360 certainly is not ending its life span!

EDIT: Acording to engadgets photos of games on demand, it seems that mass effect is selling for $20 so I would say thats cheaper than normal discs? Although im open to be proven wrong!

RoachycaL · 1 Jun 2009 at 21:03

I prefer to have a physical box and disk myself

i-bert · 1 Jun 2009 at 21:06

I thought it was a great show by microsoft.

Really want CD2 and Forza3. I can't belive i will be playing it this year. :eek:

The trouble is that tends to convert to £19.99(not in exchange rate they just change the $ for £). Even at a Tenner the ***** that I am I would buy the disc second hand a play it to sell if I didn't want to keep it.

I prefer to have something to sell on should I decide. £10 for a new title and I'd consider it

Good news about the digital distribution. That would certainly alleviate disc swapping on FFXIII.

TurnipHead · 1 Jun 2009 at 21:13

I missed it all, what happened with MGS?

Is mgs4 on 360?
Is mgs5 on 360?
Is it exclusive?

ic1male · 1 Jun 2009 at 21:14

It's not MGS4, it's a new game with Raiden. But there was no mention as to a PS3 version, of course.

But then so would just installing it from disc, the multiple discs thing was never an issue.

Demon · 1 Jun 2009 at 21:16

For me, the Full Game download is perfect!.. on O2, so no caps, I'd much prefer to not have to keep messing with the discs, but only for games that I know I won't want to trade, like FM3!!

Not a bad conference, a bit underwhelming, but then, I don't know what they could have done to make it really landmark..
I enjoyed Natal.. I'll be interested to see how it pans out with the behind doors journo's..

I'll await all the official videos before judging the sill statements like FM3 is graphically the best... BS.. I just want it to look decent and I'll be happy if they deliver on features.. full damage/flipping cars.. that's a welcome and unexpected twist!

I'll watch Sony tomorrow, be interesting to see if they aren't just re-hashing all the media thats leaked so much over the last week.. but I'll wait and see!

They will probably require disk swapping anyway, otherwise you could share as many copies as there are disks with mates

Edit: Nevermind, obvious solution, just require Disk 1 to be in all the time
