Xbox Live Market Place - General Discussion Thread 1

I know it's standardised pricing but even the discs 2nd hand cost no more than ?7 combined.

So this week we get on Wed Bano Tooie and Virtual ON Oratorio Tangram both 1200 each.
Also now now on xbox live Max Payne 1 and 2 individually for Xbox Originals also 1200 each (double pack on steam for $15 anyone?)
1200 is the new black

Sorry! as well, for 800 points, and some The Maw DLC. Epic week for XBLA, and I'm buying nothing. Hah.

Apparently Sonic and Knuckles is coming to XBLA, with lock-on functionality if you've bought the previous Sonic games

Frickin' awesome.

[Silvergun X]

That IS awesome.

They need to get Sonic 3 out then first.

But it's great they're at least offering lock-on functionality this way and not as seperate releases (although its ommision from Sega Mega Drive Ultimate Collection is still unforgivable).

Bionic Commando Multiplayer Demo going up tomorrow, will be nice to see how well multiplayer plays via the demo.

Space Invaders Extreme next week!

Sweet, priced at 800 points too for those that can't be arsed to take a look . Bargaintastic in my eyes, if this is only half as good as the DS version then it's a steal .

XBLA has been on a complete roll recently. Outrun, Virtual On, and then this!

Is there some place to preview gamer pictures yet? I want to see what's in the DeathSmiles pack but my usual tactic of going to the Xbox forum for that game and checking out all the gamercards fails, because there's no Xbox forum for it. Rats.

DO WANT!

I always loved Turtles in Time, mainly because of the 2-player mode. Never had so much fun.

Canada! It's your time to enter the limelight! Play 1 vs 100 for free with other Xbox LIVE® Gold members before anyone else. Starting May 8, Canadians will be able to try the beta based on the hit TV game show, only on Xbox LIVE.
Join live hosts for fun that's always new and different and be entered into the sweepstakes draw. The best of TV game shows and the best of Xbox LIVE, brought together at last. Get ready to join the next step forward in online entertainment as 1 vs 100 brings new content your way several days every week.

That's my interest in this largely dissolved. When it said you'd get prizes for playing I assumed it meant the winner would get them, rather that just entering everyone into a prize draw. How very dull.
