XBLA Sale Today Only

roboffer · 15 Apr 2011 at 10:06

There have been quite a few deals on this week, however today there are some good title on half price.

I'm taking the plunge on Shadow Complex and Limbo I think.

Limbo, Castle Crashers, Shadow Complex, Trials HD, Monday Night Combat (600 Points each, 50 per cent off)

Shadow Complex is well worth buying for anyone who hasn't got it yet, think it's the only XBLA game I've ever bothered to complete.

Shadow Complex is excellent. Probably the best XBLA arcade game i've played. It's basically a HD Super Metroid.

picked up limbo and trials

I bought Shadow Complex a while ago and never really got into it at all. I seem to be in the minority though.

At 600 points I'll be getting Limbo though. Thanks for the heads up.

Got Limbo, been waiting for it to go on offer for a little while now. Contemplating Shadow Complex too...but I really don't need any more games right now!

Ugh, must get the 360 online so I can buy Castle Crashers.
I love that game and at 600 points, I must own it.

Buy it via the website today and then it'll just auto-download when you eventually do get your console connected.

Limbo was very disappointing (apart from looking nice).

Shadow Complex is excellent.

Shamikebab · 15 Apr 2011 at 11:27

Limbo, Shadow Complex and Trials are must plays imo, better than a lot of full retail games.

Castle Crashers is good but only if you're playing it co-op, I find it dull on my own.

I wish Microsoft would allow the purchase of points via paypal.
Won't be in town for a points card today and I'll never link a card to their service. It's not that I don't trust the service... It's just that, wait... It is that I don't trust them.

really, how so? only played for about an hour, but finding it a lot of fun. it is a bit twisted though

Boo, spent all my points yesterday on Ilomilo. Wouldn't have minded Limbo half price.

Buy the points from an online site that emails you the code?

Bought 2100 MS points yesterday in preparation for this. I've been waiting for Limbo to go on sale since release.

My damn points didn't come
