Play.com lists 'Ubisoft Triple Pack,' containing Beyond Good and Evil HD, Outland, From Dust [update]
17
It looks like more downloadable titles will be getting the packaged retail treatment, this time courtesy of Ubisoft. Similar to the various other retail packs we've seen in the past, the "Ubisoft Triple Pack" will contain three previously download-only titles for PS3 and Xbox 360: Beyond Good and Evil HD, Outland and From Dust, according to a listing on Play.com.
Play.com's pre-order price of £14.99 equates to roughly $23, although no listings currently exist for the Triple Pack on any of the usual US retailers' websites. We've contacted Ubisoft for clarification regarding the collection's availability and pricing, but we feel safe in assuming that it'll cost more than $1 and less than $100 million, and that it'll be available in a country somewhere on this specific planet.
Update: Ubisoft has responded in a wholly surprising and remarkably unpredictable fashion: "We have nothing to announce at this time."

Outland is a solid game that I think a lot of people missed out on.

Yay, I get to boycott 3 Ubisoft products in one fell swoop.

Every time one of these retail multi-packs come out, they always manage to include 1 or more games that I already own. Though they do tend to be a great deal over buying all three individually though.

I got:
BG&E HD - $3 during Black Friday Sales
Outland - $5 on sale
From Dust has been as low as $10 on sale, but will certainly drop to $7.50 in the near future

I couldn't care less if it is in HD or not. How about getting Beyond Good and Evil 2 out, and forget the ding dong nonsense of making the original HD.

hmmm, at the right price this might be a combo pack that I would actually consider buying.

Releasing XBLA games on disc is always a bad idea, they're in the £5 bargain bin within a month or two, regardless of the quality of the games.

So... it's a great idea, yes? Consumers win in that they get the games for cheaper and in physical form, and publishers/developers win by getting them into the hands of people who otherwise wouldn't have bought them. It also promotes the works of lesser known developers, much like the Humble Indie Bundles (although the money goes to Ubisoft and not Child's Play...).
Also, it's Ubisoft published, so it could be in the bargain bin within a couple weeks, if their games drop for you in in the UK like they do in the States.

Does it come with free cheese?

... damn it.
At least I only paid a total of $8 in space bucks for BG&E and Outland. With any luck, I'll be able to nab this for $10 and call it even.

if they sold this for $20, it would be a good deal if you didn't already own any of the games. i already own Outland, and i'm not really interested in From Dust after playing the demo- so i'll probably just duy Beyond Good and Evil HD digitally when it goes on sale next.

How many times am I expected to buy Beyond Good & Evil before they bring out the sequel. I've expressed interest already. Get it done, Ancel!
