Micro-soft is retarted.

XBOX ORIGINAL??.... original? Microsoft is pissing me off

Do you even know what the fuck you're talking about, josef? It's just a title they give to Xbox 1 games available for download. The "original" refers to the original Xbox.

On topic, I couldn't really care. If I wanted to play SA, I'd just grab my physical copy on pop that into my 360.

Says the man who can't spell...

josef you clearly don't own a 360. No need to comment when you've got no idea what you're talking about.

I'm sure there are quite a few 360 users who are new to the GTA series with GTA IV and would like to play San Andreas. Simple when they can legally download it on their console for a small price. Having said that it appears they've priced it higher than the current retail value of the physical game... so it may not be all that popular.

Ahh, not to sound like the "kid that hasn't touched a nexgen system yet" type of guy( even though I am )but what's a physical copy? O.o

I hardly matters actually, Its been what 4 years since the release, The only people to buy it, Like Chris said will be people new to the series who Don't want the go to the store and but their copy.

@Nate: Physical Copy = The game disk which is inserted in the system. The ones which the xbox originals provide are downloaded the the Hard disk and playable from there.

Are these downloadable games popular? Like, more popular than the sale of the physical copy? I suppose it could be useful for really old games (like how wii has virtual console) which you can't buy anymore but I would've thought people would prefer having a physical copy. I suppose a downloaded copy is unscratchable though so that is a plus.

This is strange. Wasn't GTA SA retrocompatible?

Yes it is actually.

@WRX22B1998:

The advantages are that it's permanently stored on your hard drive, so the 3 main advantages are:

No disc that can get scratched

Faster load times

Quieter - everyone knows just how unbelievably noisy the 360's DVD drive is.

yeah i know eh 360 is so noisy...you reckon its on par with or louder than a laptop cd drive? cos thats pretty noisy lol.

yeah true, the faster load times from HD, but one disadvantage: you cant take it to a friends house and play XD

Get the HD out of the XBox.

as SV sed, detach the HDD, thats y 360s own (fanboyism lol)

on-topic - why SA it takes like half of a 20 GB HDD, wtf is the point, ill go out and buy 1

yeah i was thinking that, but i wasnt sure...well thats pretty cool

now all 360 needs is BUILT IN WIFI! i mean, come on, even Wii has it..even my PHONE has it...lol.

oh and they need to get gran turismo. then il buy it XD

I already have it for PS2 and play it on my PS3 so this news does nothing for me.
