It's underwhelming, to say the least.
I kinda enjoyed it (on PC). I don't know if its any better/worse on Xbox though.

A lot of people voted for Trump too, sheer numbers don't make them any less deserving of ridicule.

Will the Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition discs work on the One with all the included DLC?
I love Return to Ostagar and Warden's Keep...

Hope these Ea games come to EA access like the others did.

Beat EviLore at pool.
They probably will since the only thing they will probably add this month is Madden.

It would definitely make buying the DLC individually from the store look a lot better.
When I was home at lunch, it did not. I put in Disk 2 after installing Disk 1, and it just booted the game. Also tried going to Manage Game with disc 2 in the drive and it show DLC for download.
However, I saw on reddit from a guy saying to try installing the game from disc 2 and it works so we'll see.
UPDATE: That does indeed work. If you have the ultimate edition, use disk 2, not disk 1.

Just grabbed a pre-owned BF3 from gamestop before those price hikes happen.
Lucky for me, the discs look clean, new, came in the original case, & the online pass worked..............( this is pre-owned, right?)

online passes stopped being required a long time ago.

Oh...even better!
You still need to download the online pass, the only difference is now it's a free download for everyone.

Love how Gamestop Had Bad Company for 5$ now its 15$
They do that scummy shit everytime a game goes BC. When Lost Odyssey went BC, they literally jacked the price up in the same day (The girl at gamestop still gave it to me at the original price though since the sticker wasn't changed, the price change was just in the system).
I shop as little as possible at GS and shit like that does not help at all.

I understand your frustration but I don't see this as particularly scummy. Demand increases so they raise the price in response. These aren't new copies with an MSRP, and even if they were there's no law that says they have to abide by it. The fact is that a copy of the game is now worth more than it was prior to Major Nelson's announcement this morning. It sucks for sure but I don't blame them for making the change.
Yeah, I've been considering buying some BC games that aren't BC yet but I hope will eventually get there.
Catherine stayed at $20 at GameStop after they announced it for BC and was going to pick it up until MS made it $3 in the digital store.
Nice to see BC2 made it BC, I know Boban is hyped for it
Did you have your stats still?
it's the EA servers you're logged into so it will save your gamertag stats.
Yep. Battle reports still work on the website too which is nice. Remember to go to the "manage game" section and install everything under the "ready to install" category on your xbox one. I didn't try playing without doing that first so I can't confirm if everything runs smoothly if you don't. Maybe you don't even have to install all the updates, I didn't want to risk it though.
That's an oooooold bug. Did you install the updates (like I mention above) before playing?
Yeah. Weird.
Holy shit BFBC2!!! Downloading now!!!
BF 3 is garbage, no one should choose bf3 over bc2.
Edit: just checked my stats, it's actually 6000.

KH2002 for me. It's not good in any way but I love it.
I had to use the second disk, as I discussed earlier in the thread.

Worst thing about BC2 and BF3 on 360 was the screen tearing. Downloading em now - can't wait to play em vsynced!
Superior controls, for one. BF3 still feels slick and contemporary - BC2 feels clunky (especially without the ability for lateral movement when sprinting.)
Why would anyone want to play BF3 over BC2?

I'm like five matches into BF3 and I already have my first rage message. Nostalgic as hell. BF3 is still really really good.

Maps aside from fookin' Noshahr readily available?
Lmao....well...were you camping?
This is what US East/West looks like with Noshahr filtered out. I have TDM, CQ, and DOM selected. There are populated servers all the way to page 3.

Man I remember looking at the prices of RDR skyrocket when the BC rumors were swirling.

Neat.
I think it was me going 45-4 combined over two TDM matches that bothered him the most.
Also this didn't help.
I'm done bragging now I swear

Is anybody else starting to feel pressure to pick up all the games they've been meaning to buy on 360 before they become backwards compatible and leap in price?

It's a smart thing to do.
Do I need to download all the multiplayer updates for bf3?

Yup, Bad Company 2 is still the best Battlefield and best multiplayer shooter ever created.
Battlefield 3 is weird for me, though. I mostly stuck to the PC version during it's life and playing the 704p, 30fps version on my 4K TV is straight up ugly. Core gameplay is still fantastic though.

I want them digitally though, and they often go on huge sales. Catherine was just like $3 or whatever.
