Looks like it might actually be Exit 2 this week for 800 points...

[SmokeMeAKipper]

How annoying - I bought it at the full 1200 points a couple of weeks ago! Typical!

[losersclub]

Was never really too tempted by the demo, but at 800 points I should probably see what the fuss is about. Although it does mean that unless Outrun is priced at 400 points I'm going to need to buy some more. Dang.

Whens this actually due mate? Can't believe i'd totally forgot it was coming i feel ashamed now!

[fuse]

Soon hopefully! Don't think there's been any confirms on a date but it's meant to be early 2009 so it can't be that far off.

Xbox Live Gold cards are region free, aren't they? I know the points aren't, but a US membership is fine for a UK account isn't it? I'm getting conflicting reports...

EDIT: NM, Jasper was cheaper anyway. £30 for 13 months? Go on then.

[fuse]

I'm signed in as a gold member but on xbox.com (here to be precise) Braid still shows as 1200 msp?

[toythatkills]

Is it a proper gold membership, not a 48hr trial?

Try refreshing a few times

Exit is up now

[Dirty Sanchez]

Call of Duty 4 map pack download is half price for a week and double XP this weekend.

[fuse]

It is, and a few refreshes later it's behaving. Purchased at 800msp. Cheers TTK

dont mind me asking as well but i was just about to buy braid today from trying the demo yesterday but now like fuse its showing up as 1200ms instead of the discount. switched off my machine and turned back on but its still the same. has the deal ended even though it states its the deal of the week?

nvm i just found out that you gotta go into the marketplace instead of clicking it on the dashboard. but then again i cant buy at the moment because of error. stats 800 click to buy turns to 1200 and if confirm it cant connect to server. odd

Dishwasher must be out fairly soon...

[Paulos G]

Excellent news! I really enjoyed the demo.

Sam & Max seasons 1 and 2 confirmed for XBLA, and will be released as full season packs (six episodes each, I believe) rather than episodically.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

[ChrisF]

ARGH. Swore I'd never get sucked into episodic DLC, but Sam & Max may well do it for me!

Looks like it may well be "Watchmen: The End is Nigh" on XBLA next week, 1600 points: http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3173020
