I wish they added achievements to the original xbox games. I would buy them instantly if that were the case.

Also you can't use any store credit you may have to buy them - has to be Paypal/CC :( - but still such an amazing deal.

I think you can use store credit if you purchase them through an Xbox 360.

The US prices don't include sales tax (right?) whereas the UK prices include VAT. Agree that we generally get screwed over in the UK though.

I wish I still had my 360 but I got rid of it many moons ago I'm afraid...

I loved Blacklist back in the day, does it standup still or was it a more watered down version of the series, I completely forget.

Oooh this interests me. What is the difference between Double Agent on Xbox and 360? Is one version better?

Also, if getting into series for the first time, are they all worth playing?

Double Agent on Xbox is better than the 360 version.

They are all worth playing. Try the original first, see how you like it. If it becomes too hard or tedious for you, its understandable if you skip to Chaos Theory which is a huge quality leap and regarded as the masterpiece of the series.

I consider it to still be the 2nd best in the series. The only thing is, you have to modify the many difficulty options yourself to make it a more authentic splinter cell experience.

If you don't have an Xbox yet but might get one in the future, it's not a bad gamble to get these games. Microsoft is commited to BC. The games that are currently BC are playable on Series X and consoles beyond that. So it's not unlikely that BC games will get Series X enhaced, just like they are X enhanced now. Developers don't have to do a thing for it, it's all on Microsoft.
What I'm trying to say is that it's not unlikely that these games will be playable in 8K some day, maybe even with HDR.

Last time I checked (well >1year), you can use your store credits, if you buy them via xbox 360. I never understood that logic but well... the shop system is strange on xbox

Blacklist was good, but I really don't like the multiplayer mode. This is just to much "kill them all" for a splinter cell. Just like conviction where you must clear an area instead of sneaking around. In the end conviction was a good cover-shooter, but well, not a splinter cell. Really don't know why ubi tried to change the genere with that game. If fans wanted a pure cover-shooter without alternative routs, they could choose of plenty other games.

That would have been the price in the Netherlands if they just added the 21% tax
to the dollar price. But no, it's even way higher. We have to pay almost 54 dollars.

Things like this is why I am excited to finally purchase an Xbox for next gen. Instead of me building a PC, I can stick to my ultra book, then have a PS5 and XSX for all my gaming needs. I really hope Sony finally addresses their back catalog properly. Would it be so hard to let us play the digital PSone purchases from PSP/PSVITA? is licening really such a big issue? I am hoping all this praise MS is getting for supporting their legacy titles will light a fire under Sony's ass
