Samurai Shodown 2 is an awesome game and great value for 400 points.

[SuperBeatBoy]

Just saw trailer for this wee XNA game called Plain Sight, its doing the rounds it seems.
Created by London based Beatnick Games it looks really cool.

Samurai 2 is 800 points not 400 apparently it was a mistake - "there will be no more 400 point games" - Darth Vadar now works at Microsoft.. hmm I guess he always did.

"there will be no more 400 point games"

Where's that quote from?

[Morph]

some non existent Star Wars production - me just having fun, it was more the tone of voice that and the relationship between Vadar and Microsofts ambitions that I was getting at

[SUMIRE]

Yeah so, Samurai Shodown is 800 points, not 400 points. Looks ok, although there is no zoom feature. ..to fill the screen.

[arcnas]

think i will get the wii version of this then as its full screen ok its not HD but id prefer full screen , and its now cheaper as well on Wii.

.....and with no 60hz mode (unless it's an ntsc wii). And no online play.

[arcnas]

my Wii is american so im ok there , and not to bothered about online play not at 800 points anyway.

[Family Fry]

Dont understand, Samurai Showdown 2 is it 900 on Wii?

In pure UK money terms at least that converts to...
800 MS=?6.80
900 WII=?6.75

and In dollars...

800 MS=$10.00
900 MS=$9.00

A difference of 5p-$1.
So your saying xbox live option/online play is not worth at least 5p-$1?
Am starting to think Microsoft should just scrap MS points and put it out there at ?'s like PSN, Points is starting to have more issues now than ever.

[arcnas]

not right i bought 5000 wii points ages ago when the rate was high, and paid £5.30 for 1000 wii points which were $10 , so on the wii its about 4.60 , not much of a saving but better than your calcualtions, but i want it full screen not bordered.
