Ugh I would probably buy these if XBONE was BC...could have been a huge loyalty selling point if all of your XBLA purchases carried over MS...

Ah that's the best explanation I've got so far. Thanks heaps. I've got the main game and the Part IV DLC downloading now.
Oh man, wasn't ever expecting to buy anything on xbox live again but Verdict Day and Asura's Wrath were the last two games I wanted. Picked up both, although I had to muck around with my account settings since I had previously cut off Paypal from my xbox live account from the Paypal side.

Well, I bought Dante's Inferno. I've never played it other than the demo, and as a literature major, I had to do it xD

I owned pretty much everything, so I picked up the Capcom arcade cabinet(3 games for under 2 bucks) and I was curious about Rock Band Blitz. Cant wait to see what else comes. I spent over $150 last year during the Ultimate sale. I'm sure I won't repeat that this year but I hope to fill some gaps.....

Am I reading Major Nelson's post wrong or are there going to be more one day deals tomorrow?
There will be more daily deals. They said so on Major Nelson's podcast iirc.

Are they going to have daily gold deals also or am I misreading the OP... it's daily deals for everyone, a weekly deal for everyone and a weekly gold deal for gold members?

It's a few weekly gold deals and daily deals for everyone all along if I got it correctly.

That's cool, it's sweet they opened the deal for non-gold peons like myself, haha. Speaking of gold, I just saw on Slickdeals for anyone interested that Wal-mart is selling 12 month Day One subscription cards which includes KI for 39.99. I was under the impression those weren't for separate sale.
Anyone ever play the Ridge Racer game? I liked Bugbear's Flatout so if it's similar to that then it's probably pretty fun to play.
They don't include KI, despite the unintelligible description, its purely the Shadow Jago character. I say character but its a reskin, nothing more.

Ahh, thanks for the heads up. Reading fail I guess. :/
They're going to make the character drastically different later on doe
Welp, I can safely say that guardians of middle earth is not good if you're into mobas already. I pretty much figured as much going in, but figured that it was only a buck so what the hell. Also the game is dead, the matches I was getting into we're filled with 2 or 3 humans per match with the rest being bots.
I recall reading that they hoped to, not that they definitely would.
Be nice if they do though (although as they've been sold to Amazon, god only knows)

It's a great starter MOBA for that very reason.
You can get familiar with the genre without being yelled at by teammates.
As a newcomer to the genre, I'm loving it so far.
Best dollar I've ever spent on XBLA!
Do it! It's one of my favorite games of the last gen

Got charged tax for Runner 2. Haven't added any funds, still using a past balance of points from before the 'real money' switch. Never got charged tax before. Checked my previous purchase(Dungeons and Dragons Chronicles back in January) and can confirm zero tax. Any idea what is up with this? New policy or something?
My only thought is this is related to a recent deposit from the rewards program, my first since the switch over. I guess maybe the rewards money is taxable? I hope this doesn't mean the rest of my 'points' balance will now be taxed. It is bad enough that they started charging odd amounts($4.94, $10.03, etc) for sale items, I don't need taxes to help leave with an odd amount in my account.
Ridge Racer Unbounded DLC worthwhile?

Lol, I hope you didn't actually do this. RB Blitz is a 360 controller game (no plastic instruments required or supported). Great game though.

To be fair, it also functions as a song pack for Rock Band 3.

If you buy online in the Web browser, it automatically uses the credit card and charges tax. Account balance can only be used on the system.

Never used the online store nor a credit card. Been using points cards since day one. Not sure what the deal is...
I was charged tax on a couple of purchases I made with converted points, but it was less than the local tax rate. I have no idea why. (Points I redeemed and spent after the conversion weren't taxed.)
