                  You might miss the quote when I said sell. I read it again and definitely it causes confusion. What I mean is that some companies are trying to sell the product based on the patches that they will put out because the game currently is not working as intended. I know that customers already buying it will surely get it, and yes, for free. I do not have an example of companies charging for patch unless you see MMORPG patches as paid patches. :) Examples? Oh, I dont know. To some extent Civilization 5 and Elemental.
                  
                  I assume you played a lot of games, but when you play games like Half Life 2 (aside from the original trouble activating the game via Steam), Sins of Solar Empire, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, do you think they need patches or have glaring game-breaking issues? I dont think so. Also, who doesnt want to have a game or piece of software that is bug free? I know I do but I dont live in a dream world. I think what we want is to have a game that when released is playable as intended and do not require any super big patches because it is crashing/freezing/glitching like most recent games.

    Isn't Borderlands GOTY just the base retail game with 4 download codes? : the archvile
    • Yup. And for the whole thing it's 25% less than the Bulletstorm DLC lol. : MeestaNob
  • I wish Borderlands had more DLC. 3 of the 4 Addon's where fantastic (Ned, Knoxx and Claptrap). : Fluffy_Bunny
  • They changed the Steam purchased version of Borderlands to Steamworks a while ago. : isolated1
