While Games on Demand or downloadable games, I feel, in general is a good thing. It beats having to go out to the store at times, especially if it isn't close, and you can download it while you are busy doing other things. But I also always feel that games on demand should not be the same price as they are in the store. I suppose there is the cost of bandwidth for downloading the game but you don't get a box, manual, or physical disc so what justifies the same price? Microsoft, that's just my peeve, especially with Crysis 2 this week. $59.99 to download? But in a brighter light, there is Resident Evil Code: Veronica X. That is new on Xbox so perhaps that justifies it's $19.99 price point although, how old is the game now? Anyway, here is the complete list of releases for Games on Demand for September 27th:
