    The digital version of Lost Odyssey dropped to free when it picked up BC a couple years ago (I think the physical version shot up to $50 then too). This is why it's handy to always grab digital freebies whenever they pop, never know if you'll wanna try it later.

    Yeah I read it was free with Gold the month it became BC think it was December 2016.

    Fairly sure it wasn't Gold, just straight up free. I grabbed it even though I have the physical game, and haven't turned on my 360 in years.

The RRoD issue was definitely an embarrassment, but otherwise it was arguably quite a bit better than the PS3 until a fair ways into the latter console's life. Most of the games on both consoles during the early days of that generation played better on the 360 (many substantially so), it had a debatably better lineup of exclusives for a good while, and while I think the PS3 definitely wound up as the better console by the end, and while I was particularly disappointed with how much Microsoft pulled out of Japan after what looked to be a promising new start with Japanese developers, I think the console was a really solid showing for Microsoft on the whole. I came within a whisker of buying one at multiple times throughout that generation, and even now, there are quite a few 360 exclusives that I'd still really like to go back and play.

    Also, I think the OG XBox is tons of fun too, even as someone who plays mostly Japanese games, and who has little interest in the FPS games that it was best known for. ._. I bought one to play Panzer Dragoon Orta years after the console was retired, and was surprised at how many other interesting games there were on the console. It wound up being a really neat purchase.
    I think you can get a Xbox 360 for not too much. Though I'm not sure how expensive exclusive titles would be. I know a lot of old PS3 and Xbox 360 games can be bought for fairly cheap now. Are the PS3 and Xbox 360 on the verge of becoming considered retro? Since the new Playstation and Xbox are set to arrive sometime within the next couple of years? Or does a game console have to be three generations or so behind before it becomes considered retro? Just a thought I had. I guess it is subjective as well.

    On another note, when I went to turn on my PC this morning, I had to push the power button multiple times. I did all kinds of tests and checked the hardware and software checks. Temps are fine, it booted into Windows after it turned on with no issue. I'm hoping its not the mobo or power supply. I just built this thing in 2015 with all new parts! Hopefully its just the power button getting old. Then again I did try different outlets and it turned on after I plugged it into a different outlet, so maybe that's it? Its not re-booting or shutting itself down, so hopefully all is well.

    It's free if you have it physical.

    Found Tomb Raider Underworld the other day, so another BC title crossed off my list. Also got Zombi for xbone.

    Underworld was alright. Guess it must have been the last one before the new strain of games.

    Apparently EB should be getting rid of 360/PS3 titles before the end of this year, so there might be some cool harder to find stuff that will hit the bargain bin.

    I walked into the Richmond one the other day. They were doing buy-1-get-2-free on their PS3/360 games. I was horrified to see they gutted the games, took the box insert and shoved the manual and disc into it, then taped the 3 sides of the cover insert down to hold everything together.

    Is it any good? The best part of Zombi U is that they made the distracting tablet useful.
