Should I BUY or BEWARE?
I am interested in buying the 3 Sonic Games from the arcade, but I see all the posts about people not being able to play the sonic games after awhile because they change into trial versions....Should I buy the games or just stay away and save my money?

Re: Should I BUY or BEWARE?
Because of this slight glitch, I have not purchased any of the Sonic titles that are available on XBL.

I think it's only one of the games that revert back to a trial version, and the only known fix is to use the license migration tool. Although I don't mind doing this, what if after a few months it happens again?

BAM! and the dirt is gone!

Thanks for the advice....From what I read you are only able to use the License Transfer 1 Time every 12 months...So that wouldn't be cool if it happened again...

I am so glad I read this first! I was planning on purchasing the other Sonic games I didn't have but now I know better. This is a lame glitch that will ward people off purchasing the whole collection. Thank you.

I have heard of this. My Sonic 1 game turned into a trail after a while. Does anyone know about this?

Re: Should I BUY or BEWARE?
If you switch consoles, you will need to be logged into your XBL account in order to play the full version until you've moved the Content Licenses using the MS utility.  You can read more about that here.  You need to be near your new console and able to connect to XBL in order to use this (and it can only be used once a year).
