I have been staring at some game on XBL games on demand and was wondering what games would be good investments. I have not as of yet played in full... Dragon Age, Splinter Cell Conviction, Batman AA, Blur or Split Second. I was thinking of getting 2. Which do you suggest?

GET THEM ALL....AT THE MASSIVE REDUCED PRICE...ITS A STEAL. You would never get them as cheap at retail even though some of the games are over 2 years old.

WELL WORTH IT, and it will eat up your disc space like no tomorrow.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From what you posted, I'd choose between Dragon Age, Batman AA, Splinter Cell. I'm not really a fan of racing games anymore. But I figure the ones I mentioned have the best value for your money. But I'm not sure what genre of games you like, so that could be a issue to.

to be honest its not really worth it most of the time. If you can find one thats on offer then yeah thats fine but most of the time MS are charging at least 30% more than the retail disc would cost you. And until they open the on demand thing to other vendors they will continue to be over priced because there is, as yet, no competition

games on demand are an absolute rip off. you dont get the box, manual and disc. you can never lend, sell or trade them in.

games that are £15 to £20 i can get in my local store for £5 to £7.
