May I ask, could anyone recommend which of those Retro Shooters on offer this week would be the best one to get?

Anything but DN Manhattan Project! Serious Sam is good fun I thought, I'd suggest trying out the demo of it though, it's love/hate possibly!

+1 DN Manhattan is tripe, OP you can download trials of them all to test them out, but I'd recommend Geometry Wars

Wolverine359 · 13-02-2011 09:52PM

Thanks Niallon and Calex71, I'll download a few demos now to try them out, I always leave it til the last minute to decide which arcade games to get and by the time I do decide, they've gone back up in price! :rolleyes: I have to get out of this detrimental decision-making pattern.

2100 MS Points for £11.99
Here's a roundabout way of getting 2100 MS points for £11.99.

1. Log into the GAME website and vote for Game Of The Year. Click me. (It doesn't matter which you vote for)

2. In a few days, you'll receive an email with a £5 voucher to use against any of the games you could vote on.

3. Select to purchase Limbo.

4. This is an MS Arcade game, so instead of the game, you get to buy 2100 MS points instead.

5. Redeem your voucher, and the price of the MS points is now just £11.99.

The one catch is that delivery to EU is £2.99 but free within the UK, so if you know anyone in the UK (including NI) use their home address as delivery. It's just a code, so they can either call the code out to you, or take a photo of it and email it to you.

Even with the EU delivery, it's still cheaper than you'll get anywhere (I think).

+1 Once again proving that gameplay is king, this is by far one of the best XBLA games available! Haven't been this addicted to an XBLA game since Splosion Man!

ChickenBalls · 03-03-2011 01:57PM

I'll post up the weekly deals here as I work for Xbox

I do have the next 2 months but I'd be sacked if I posted them!
I'll do it Monday AM for ye all just before they come out.

Just a hint to next weeks game there's only 1 title similar to Pac-Man begins with L then there's a St. Patrick's Day\Week list with quite a few deals.

Stay Tuned....

Drakar · 03-03-2011 03:00PM

Begins with L ..... couldnt be a game where a young boy goes in search of his sister is it?

Hrm, wonder what the St Paddys deals will be, obviously some leprachaun hats for Avatars and such but will it be games with Oirish characters, like The Saboteur....or Bioshock.....or........damn this is hard?

Limbo! No not this one but good guess

The breakdown for Paddy's day is 5 Avatar items, 3 Add-ons and 1 Game.

Pac-Man this week was the members choice which I didn't realise - no wonder its one of the best deals this year so far.

In the mean time there are some good games for House Party available

I was actually looking to see if he did release the titles before time! Guess your right but this is only for the US market not EMEA (Europe) - Lara croft will be the only one for us next week.

The following after Paddy's week is S**** *

Gunmonkey · 03-03-2011 07:55PM

Ah, Lara Croft, so obvious

Also, wonder what "The Black Emporium" is for Dragon Age 2, probably a quest chain or new location or such.

Drakar · 04-03-2011 06:03PM

Is there some way to see what's on sale from the dashboard?

Unless it's specifically listed as an ad on one of the channels such as Spotlight, nope.

Wolverine359 · 06-03-2011 03:11PM

Great, I'll definitely be buying Guardian of Light this time, missed it during the Christmas sale. Question though, is the co-op online or do you have to have a friend in the same room to play with?

Gunmonkey · 06-03-2011 04:32PM

It was originally offline but think they patched it for online last year. Great game too.

Wolverine359 · 06-03-2011 05:39PM

Thanks @Gunmonkey, definitely getting it so!
