Around $24 for an expansion pack?  Seems like typical fare...

I'll definately buy this one.  I'd much rather pay $20 for more of the real deal than pay $60 for Two Worlds (Oblivion knockoff).  Looks like my predictions about the reasoning for increasing the amount of achievements for games with DLC was right, just in time for shivering isles.

2400 points = $30 which is the same as price as the PC version (which would be purchased boxed.) Hopefully they will release a GOTY edition for 360 with the expansion plus all add-ons. Even so I am buying the expansion as soon as it is available on live.

^ No shit.  They could keep selling me these packs for a couple years probably.  Its not like its some slim sidequest that you'd finish in a day.



It looks like friggin Alice in Wonderland with baddies  ;P

I just wish I had high speed internet so I could actually get stuff like this.  Guess I have to wait for it to come out in a hard copy version.  I do have oblivion for pc as well, but the 360 kicks my pc down the street and then runs it over, twice.
