Celebrate and rejoice 360 fans! In honour of the upcoming Labour Day weekend a number of XBLA titles are going on sale for 48 hours. You will be able to pick up Small Arms, Zuma Deluxe, Gauntlet and Dig Dug for HALF PRICE!!!
Small Arms and Zuma for 400 points each is a no brainer in my books. Both games are alot of fun and well worth the half price 400 point price tag. Gauntlet and Dig Dug, YMMV ... however if you are a fan of arcade classics, at 200 points each these are must buy's.
Perhaps even more interesting is that this may be the start of a trend ... are we going to see half price Live Arcade Content Specials become a regular occurence?

There was a Small Arms patch that fixed a bunch of the complaints people had about it. It still isn't Smash Brothers but it is fun in its own way.
because it's out
Streets of Rage 2
is out
on Xbox Live Arcade
you can buy it.
Speaking of XBLA content and Arcade games, is there a way to remove the demo tags from your Xbox Live gamer tag?
(That question makes sence in my head but let me explain. A while ago I downloaded the demo for Contra and Tex Hold 'Em but didn't buy. Now when people see my gamer tag they see those games and send me an invite to play. And of course I have to decline because I can't join.)

I know what I'm doing when I get home! Thanks for the heads up.
That's why I didn't buy it. Super C for the Wii FTW ... got my fix ...
Still ... Suggestions?

I doubt we will se those reductions though.
Can't recall what the heck Small Arms is though I'll have to try the trial version again and see. Isn't it that Smash Bros style game with the robot kitties? Hrm might have to think about that one. 400 points isn't too bad.
Crapppp and I just bought Puzzle Fighter HD too! I think this gen I'm spending more on downloadable games than retail games. Sure glad I got an extra 1600ish points left over.
Oh yeah speaking of having my wallet raped is there any word on when/if we will see Sam & Max on wii/ps3/360? I'm interested in season 1 but I never got around to trying it on the PC.
There's no way to do it, and it's one of the things that has bugged me since launch. I'm hoping they'll fix it in a future system update.

BTW for you Small Arms addicts whats the deal with the 250 point add on pack for it? 2 characters and 2 weapons doesn't seem like a lot for what is basicly half the cost of a arcade game. Is there more to it?
