Nice, I've wanted the original Banjo-Kazooie since it was out for N64, with this offer I think I'm finally going to buy it!

djkeogh · 27-04-2011 1:05pm

those 2 Dead Rising games are amazing and you don't need to have the full game to play them either. Highly recommended for anyone on the fence.

Tried to download Case West, and its saying its not avaliable in my region or the offer has expired, and that is happening for both the demo, and the proper download. It isn't happening for any other content for me as well. Anyone try to download it as well, and have the same issue?

Emailed MS about it, but no response yet.

I tried to download it last night and the same thing happened but I assumed that the deal of the week started Wednesday.And that was why

I downloaded Case West yesterday no problems, was 400 points too.

dunworth1 · 27-04-2011 11:44pm

i'm downloading case west now

dunworth1 · 28-04-2011 3:29am

really liking DR: Case West played it for a while

wes · 28-04-2011 11:15am

Thanks for that guys. Kicked off the download on my Xbox 360, and that worked for me.

Street Fighter II Hyper Fighter 400 MSP 200 MSP

That's a total steal. If I didn't have it already, I'd be downloading it for that price. It's a baastard had version of SFII though.

ShadowHearth · 01-05-2011 8:10pm

is case west stand alone or you need full game?

Wolverine359 · 01-05-2011 8:14pm

Yes, it's standalone, you dont need dr2. Highly recommended at the bargain price of 400 points, as is case zero for 200pts.

I get this error too with a few things, right now its happening to me because I am living in America this year and my account's location is set to Ireland (cannot be changed.) I would need to set up a proxy or something.

I think its all mature rated content, Dead Rising, Call of Duty maps, GTA San Andreas etc. IIRC your region is set by the email address you use when you first set it up, so I would check that out.

ShadowHearth · 02-05-2011 11:01pm

Bought : case zero and case west.

Just gave a vary very short go so far. Died 50m of start location.... Was not impressed lol

calex71 · 03-05-2011 2:12pm

This week is :

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - 400 MSP
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair - 600 MSP

Good price on Harmony of Despair with half off, all the dlc for it is on sale too.

Shockingly even at my age I've never actually played a Castlevania game

Are they worth looking at?

Harmony of Despair got some pretty scathing reviews. Apparently there's absolutly no point in playing single player as its almost 100% aimed at multiplayer.

Symphony of the Night on the other hand is a great game and well worth it for 400msp

Giblet · 03-05-2011 3:47pm

Symphony of the Night is amazing, If you like Super Metroid, get it.

If I haven't played bouth?!

I only played very very first castlevania on nes.... And it was not great for me... It was like million years ago too...

I camt see those deal too thought...

Giblet · 03-05-2011 4:01pm

I never played any Castlevania games before I played Symphony. You don't need to!

ShadowHearth · 03-05-2011 9:36pm

Okay. Case zero is sort of ****.

Hated that time frame system in first game, here it returns with a blast... You can't relax and explore, mess around. You constantly running... And when you think you got 10hours it melts to 7 hours in few minutes... Good game, but FFs.

Dues Bellator · 06-05-2011 12:47pm

ive noticed some good free games on XBL , like Doritos crash course and Hasbro family games night , anyone come across any more freebies?

Hasbro ain't strictly free, the "platform" is but you need to buy the individual games for it, works out quite expensive vs the disc based version.

Totomball is free , but you need the camera thing, don't think it works with kinect but I don't have that to try it so worth a shot even if the game itself is poo poo

Healium · 10-05-2011 11:14am

Borderlands, Bioshock 2, Mafia 2

calex71 · 10-05-2011 12:35pm

Just dlc this week? No arcade game ?

Wolverine359 · 10-05-2011 1:44pm

Looks like I won't need to use up any MS points this week.

kiddums · 10-05-2011 5:02pm

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this, but are Limbo,Trials HD and Splosion Man any good as games? I have the trials of them all and they seem good, but I'm worried they might just have a novelty value.

Is 20stg a good price for all 3 on a disk?

Mr Freeze · 10-05-2011 5:11pm

Limbo is great, but quite short.

Never tried Trials HD, but its supposed to be great.

I got Splosion Man, but I struggle to see why this game is so popular, I got it for 160msp so not too bad.

2 Shooters out it seems, Star Raiders and Gatling Gears.

Feel the same way about splosion man , just can't get into it. Limbo and trials are great games, but like you said limbo is short.

Pity they didn't swap out splosion man for shadow complex on that disc release.
