Lolsmileyface12 This seems kind of pointless. Why make a disc version. I would much rather have it on my xbox so i dont have to get up and put the disc in my xbox everytime i want to play the game.


The whole point of this (as stated in the article) was to allow people who do not have xbox live or an internet connection to be able to play this.

I wonder if the disc version will run smoother in multiplayer? The multiplayer in the downloaded version is horrendous.
