On occasion, when a game is good enough to gain critical Game of the Year Award mass, preferably at the E 3 game expo, it will come out with a series of DLCs, which, typically about a month after the release of the last one, will be bundled with the main game at a reduced price, typically to the chagrin of major fans of the games who had already bought the DLCs. It is often abbreviated as GOTY.
This trend probably started with Morrowind, which came out with the Tribunal and Blood Moon expansions, which were later coupled with the game.
Examples of Game of the Year Edition include:
Action Adventure
- Batman: Arkham Asylum has one.
- Left 4 Dead, according to Steam.
- Red Dead Redemption
- LA Noire
Fighting
First-Person Shooter
RP Gs
- Fallout 3 GOTY was released with all five of its expansions, Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta, retailing for $80 at release, the original price of Fallout 3 at release.
- The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind GOTY came out with its two expansions, Bloodmoon and Tribunal.
- The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion GOTY came out with only two of its numerous expansions, The Shivering Isles ($30 on Xbox live marketplace,) and Knights of the Nine ($10 on Xbox live,) for $30, making a massive price differential.
- Marvel Ultimate Alliance had a Gold Edition all the DLC characters from both the Hero Pack [1] and the Villain Pack [2]. This is now the only way to get these DLC packs since Activision lost its Marvel license.
- Fable II
