will be interesting to see how much aTm content but i would buy some stuff if we ever start winning big games... key here is "full games" and "HD versions".

ive got 15 or so games from the past (the big wins) and would get them on the xbox (especially since they will have hd)

yeah just like everything else content will be key.... that said i would love to see some non aTm embarrassments.... guess we will have to wait until basketball season.

that said im probably going to go get the first "good game" i see up there in hd just to see what kind of a presentation it is so i know for the future.

Do it.

Great idea. My concern is price: 4.50? For a game I probably already seen. and space. I just have a premium so HD space is limited.

yeah the price is a bit high but not horrible considering its an HD game.... file download is gonna be the same as a movie (around 5-6 gigs). but a big key for me atleast is the ability to redownload things anytime you want.

since the xbox/zune mark your account for content that you bought its alot better than itunes implementation where you can delete content on your zune/360 and go redownload it anytime you want.

If you download it on your XBOX, if it's connected to your network -- could you potentially pull it off on to your PC?

not yet.... but its more than likely going to be done eventually. the zune (its marketplace) and xbox360 already work off the same id and your account is marked with the content you purchased as soon as they get the go ahead from the content providers you will get it on your pc as well. now the question is what kind of video format will they use because since the zune isnt a full hd player they might only give you a smaller resolution file there.

but since you can delete and redownload the file its not a huge concern yet to be able to back it up to your pc.... or are you more talking sharing it with friends vly?
