Gamerscore Blog has just announced that Monday will bring Burnout 3: Takedown to Xbox Originals for 1200 points ($15).
I personally think this “Xbox Originals” thing is a missed opportunity for Microsoft. $15 is too much to pay for a game that is last-gen, can’t be loaned, traded or sold and takes up half of your 360′s hard drive. You could go pick this game up for $10 used at Gamestop or a measely 100 points over on Goozex. The only time I could see myself spending that much money for a game would be for something that’s hard to find, such as Psychonauts. Otherwise, it’s not worth it. I’m sure I’ll be proven wrong, though, and people will throw their money at Microsoft to buy original Xbox games, just like with the Guitar Hero II track packs.
On a side note, part of the posts title is of interest: “Xbox Originals Monday.” Perhaps we will be seeing some regular additions to the Xbox Originals program?
