#2 “Game of the Year” Editions.
This edition of the game typically contains all the DLCs that early buyers shelled out for in the year before. It’s a steal, but you still don’t need to buy it on day one of its release because it’s guaranteed to go on sale some months after.
But if you’re anything like me, that GOTY edition of Fallout 3—which I’ve already played but bought anyway ‘because it has everything!’—is just going to sit on your Steam shelf for as long as new games keep coming out.
