At least did more honestly (clearly put a "DO NOT PURCHASE" label on the box) than a fake 50mb stub that just tells the user "there's a 200gb update to download, you need to go online and download it" that too many games are doing nowadays and there's no way to know if the game is actually included or the purpose of the disc is to be a DRM
Oh for sure, it's a real weird time for the industry in that way. I'm not a fan, but I guess when the world ends the 360 will reign supreme?
