    It's a good idea but the prices of games are always stupidly higher when buying it on the consoles though from what I have noticed.

    I know it's Xbox but Ghosts on the Xbox Store is about £55 but you can buy it brand new on disc for £35 from places, and to be honest I can handle waiting a day or two if required in order to not over pay for games.

    The console game price mark-up is borderline obscene...

    I worked it out a while ago that assuming my entire Steam library was purchased at full release-day price (it wasn't) and that the Steam price is £10 cheaper than the boxed release price of the console equivalent, then I have saved more than £1000 before factoring in sale prices etc. which actually offsets the cost of my decent spec rig in the first place....

    Might just be me, but the Transformers font on that picture had me scratching my head for a few seconds, wondering what exactly happens when a Dark Spank Rises.

    Nice, i wonder if Microsoft will do something similar on Xbox, i know a few people with slow connections having to wait upwards of 24h just to download a game.
