I can't believe it room this long. Agree with the lackluster list though. I will pick up dark void for 5 bucks though. I enjoyed it a bit during a rental.

YOUR MOVE, VALVE
No kidding. I got a little hyped when I saw a VP game on the list, but nope...

I dunno, Bionic Commando, Conan, Dark Void, Kameo, PDZ, PoP, Table Tennis, Sega Tennis, GRAW, and VT2009 are all worth 5 bucks.
I think im gonna pick up quite a few of these, just on the hope that they do this stuff more often, haha.

I just saw Kameo and Conan for $4.50 each and I bought Dark Void for $7 like two years ago so I imagine it can't be too much more than $5 right now.
You know what they need to have here and what they would do if they were smart? Hitman Blood Money. The game came out in '06 for crying out loud and it would be perfect for getting people into the franchise for the new one coming soon.
Dark void was $5 at best buy sometime last year
But none that are worth my time.

lol Have you been reading my news letter? You sound just like me. It's not always about money.
I'll go ahead and vouch for Dark Void being a decent enough game to play.

I'm pretty sure that you can get all achievements locally against bots.
I'll definitely double dip on Table Tennis, and maybe PDZ.
Yeah, it's a near perfect table tennis game. I can understand why Rockstar didn't bother making another one, because there isn't much more they could do with it.

Hmm, cool. I might pick up Kameo and PoP.
How does PDZ single player hold up?

Hey, Kameo, PoP 2008 and Table Tennis aren't shit.
Hell, even GRAW is pretty great, if only for nostalgia purposes. Still remember being blown away by the demo, the visuals, animation, etc.
Dat first real taste of next gen.

Not really. I hope that this will get some people playing though.
Even still, you can add bots in place of real players, so it's got some staying power, and the bots aren't pants-on-head retarded.
Close though.
If you liked the first games SP, you probably wont like PDZ's. It makes no sense, and overall just shitty. Multiplayer with players and bots is where it's at. Game plays a bit like crap, but that's to be expected for a game that literally came out as a launch title..
If you like Bomberman, no.
Besides, this bombed so hard you can often get a physical copy for <$5 new if you can find it. Best Buy had it for like $2.99 at one time.

except that people might buy that hitman game because of their interest in the new one. The $15 xbox original copies of Max Payne 1 and 2 probably saw that bump from the third game coming out.

Why the hell isn't deathsmiles on sale?
Big-ass Ramp
hella bullets that's true
I'll get Surf's Up and Bionic Commando. Not THAT bad of a sale
Will bite on Bionic Commando, and maybe PoP if it's PoP 08. But these definitely should be the new permanent prices. You on some ol' bullshit, M$.
Can't be said enough, but DO NOT DO IT. It's the Sonic 2006 of Bomberman (funnily enough, Sega realized how shitty Sonic 06 was and removed all of it from XBLA [and PSN IIRC])
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NO

Only to give them away for free a week later?

holy crap surf's up came out on the Gamecube
Half of that is shit and the other half are games I've had for years, nice MS. /sarcasm
Oh and it can't be repeated enough, do not buy the abortion trying to pass itself off as a bomberman game.
It didn't hold up in 2005 and it sure as hell doesn't hold up now IMO.

Man i wish i could buy some of those games but i have a US account even tough i'm from Chile, the region lock is a huge bummer for me. I tried once with a VPN but it didn't work, maybe i'll give it another go once the sale starts.

meanwhile in psn, even the tumbleweeds are still full price
kinda torn on this, I dont want XBL to become like steam, basically a haven of 99c worthless junk no one wants. OTOH, I like cheap stuff...
hmm, bionic commando...at one time that was a heavily hyped title...

I got Bionic Commando years ago for $9 off newegg. It's a shit game that has some promising gameplay. Swinging around is fun and I would have liked to see a refined sequel. Too bad Grin shit out a bunch of bombs and closed.
There's puzzling plotholes that make you think whole levels were cut, THE laughable twist of the generation, random radiation death spots around the levels, and the worst boss finale I have ever played in a videogame ever. But the achievements are easy.

I know PoP is good but is tornado outbreak really fun? Haven't played it.

It might sell a bit at regular price.
These games probably sell single digit numbers per year, and the only reason that they are on "sale" (four times cheaper) is that the promotion of the "sale" will mean they will likely sell 4 times more than they were, making MS free money on crap.
It is the dirtiest, most transparent, non-sale ever by MS.
