Do many people play Full House Poker? Oh and

JET SET RADIO AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
- Lee Rayson
  
  Last time i wa son yeah there a fair amount ppl, but it been discounted recently so more ppl bought it cheap
rhooper

Jet Set Radio, alright! o/

But I really would like to spend my points… here we go through another 2 weeks without an interesting thing for me.
http://twitter.com/CraziedZombies Josh Cox

some good things for me to pick up i’ve got 600 points from rewards thing and i can get the DLC for Deux Ex and i think i’ll get Jet Set Radio idk yet but most likely the Deux Ex DLC

No mention of the massive rock band song sale?
- Hugoku
  
  That one is huge! A sale for the ages… If you like RB (which I do).
  
  A great change to expand the tracklist, for those who picked RBB a few weeks back.
http://twitter.com/VisionaryLight Karen den Broeder

Thank you for updating. The sales are not being listed on the dash in Canada at all. This and the CAG forum are the only way I can find out there’s a sale. We don’t have the Sale App in Canada. Can someone on the xbox team give us a dash square for Sales and Discounts in Canada?
- Lee Rayson
  
  if you dont have the app do what alot other regions have done make a US account then download it
Hugoku

JSR at last!
Plus, we’ll finally find out if the avatar Fire Pro Wrestling game lives up to it’s name.

And, don’t want to be a whiner but I still think MvC Origins should have been 800. Will wait for DotW.
- markfarmer593
  
  Yeah, been waiting for Jet Set for a while! At 800 too is nice.
  I agree on MvC Origins should maybe have been 800, but there you go.
  Hell Yeah! also looks like a lot of fun.. Looking forward to that.. too bad will have to wait an extra week :’(
  
  Other than that I will say we had that one good week a couple of weeks ago, but overall the deals have been pretty uninspiring.. and that carries on (for another 2 weeks at least)

Jet Set Radio – keep bringing on the ports. Good times.
- Hugoku
  
  More than that, great ports!
  Sonic CD and JSR are old games brought to the current consoles with great care.
  Don’t want everyone pulling a Jojo again.
  
  Hopefully Sonic Advance 2 and Nights show the same love. From what i’ve seen, Nights is shaping up great.
  - http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf
    
    Advance 2? :p
    
    But yeah looking forward to NiGHTS and ADVENTURE 2. Shame we get them the Friday after NA PSN. What’s with them not launching on the Wednesday, Major?
    
    (You should really beat them at their own game and get your digital games out before, not after.)
    - Hugoku
      
      haha, meant Adventure. The Advance are pretty good though.
- http://profiles.google.com/dfpg86 Décio Gonçalves
  
  Yeah, i hope that rumour about Skies of Arcadia is true, xbla really needs some jrpgs…
  - Lee Rayson
    
    I just hope Shenmue rumours were true… it the only game i want on xbla more than any other game

Will there ever be anything NFL related for avatars? It’s been at least 2 years without anything
- MathGuy42
  
  I’m guessing that “NLF” was a typo for NFL. Perhaps there’s an NLF I’m not aware of though.
- Jaymoon
  
  Nope, just ‘NLF’ avatar stuff…
  
  and ‘Battledfield’? Typos much?
http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

Anything more than nothing is too much for Capcom Disc Locked CONtent.
Any reasoning behind the Hell Yeah staggered release? This is the first I’ve heard of it.
Obligatory: JET SET RADIOOOOOOO…
MathGuy42

Just a warning to everyone that Cars Race-o-Rama has an unobtainable achievement. It was never obtainable. Microsoft should force the developer to fix the game before placing it on Games on Demand, but I doubt it has been fixed. I hope I’m wrong.
markfarmer593

And for those interested there are 3 Sales And Specials App deals, which are;
1) Lara Croft And The Guardian Of Light – 50% off – down to 600
2) All Zombies Must Die – 50% off – down to 400
3) Puzzle Arcade – 50% off – down to 400
- DragonsDeck
  
  Thats nice for those of you that actally have the Sales and Specials App, for the rest of us peasants I guess MS will get around to it when they feel like it.
  - http://www.facebook.com/danicuadras Daniel Cuadras
    
    You can make a free US account, download the Sales and Specials App from it, and launch the app from your regular account. The deals still work. I’m in Spain where this app is not available, have done this and have used some offers from it.
- rhooper
  
  Damn it… Lara Croft is all the time on sale, but I bought it at full price a while ago…
  
  Well, patience is a virtue, young padawan…

  WOOOO…THANKS

ODST and Halo Anniversary on Games on Demand, por favor! Thanks!

By the way, always appreciate these updates. Thanks Major!
BlinkFandango

Definitely picking up Fable Heroes.
Riddick Snipes

Jet set radio = OMG. Bring it on!!!
Lee Rayson

Fire Pro Wrestling 800mps = buy!!! i did expect it to be 1200 msp to be honest but im glad it only 800
http://twitter.com/Dthib87 The Dude

lol censoring posts because they are critical of you is a really bad idea.
http://twitter.com/duznot Brad Lavender

Damn, I bought Dragon’s Lair a month ago before leaving the country. As for the super-hero sale: why only drop the price of the regular MvC3 costume pack and not the mega-pack that goes with UMvC3? I’ve been hoping to see that for 800 for a while.
http://twitter.com/NickJAmbrose Nicholas J. Ambrose

Some great stuff here over the next few weeks! Already picked up Fable Heroes, Jet Set Radio HD is an instant buy, and the FFXIII-2 content will almost definitely end up being bought too! Anyone got an idea of what the sale includes, out of interest?
http://twitter.com/karlcramer Karl Cramer

Curious about Fire Pro Wrestling. Saw that at PAX East last year and haven’t heard much about it since. Would like to see how that turned out. They had promised that you would be able to use your avatar props in the ring to fight with.
- Lee Rayson
  
  Well on Friday you can try the demo, im excited for it i been waiting for it since it was announced years ago. i know you can use your avatar clothing but didnt know about the props what they supoose to be weapons?
http://twitter.com/MacUser1986 Michael Dolcin

What’s awesome is I was literally going to buy Fable Heroes on Friday but I thought I should wait. Glad I did!
http://twitter.com/ChicoEdge Chico Edge

Not great but not bad either. I’ll be picking up Dragon’s Lair this week and if enough of my friends get Fable: Heroes I’ll buy that as well. I’ve been wanting the Avengers pinball tables so that will be a good buy next week.
http://www.facebook.com/manuelenrique.martineztorres Martinez Torres Manuel Enrique

Where the hell is Scott Pilgrim Wallace DLC!?
- Lee Rayson
  
  It got delayed i think it till next month
http://twitter.com/korahn Eric Starr

So, Jet Set Radio and a bunch of other meh stuff? Ok.
http://twitter.com/fcviotto Fernando Coli Viotto

Jet Set Radio for a very reasonable price!

And someone could please punch CAPCOM in the face? They were asking for 400 MSP for 1 single character um UMvC3… what a greedy nonsense company… That explains the absurd pricing on Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure as well…
http://twitter.com/presidente_vil Andrés Salgado

Does someone knows if the Sales and Specials app discounts are only for Gold users? Or they are available also for Silvers?

I’m assuming being the Avatar section gets a Minecraft Update on 25-Sept, we should expect to see the new update of Minecraft sometime that week
Russell Gorall

Sounds rad.
ryder4life22187

makes me wonder why or if fable heroes is really gonna be on sale for almost a month or maybe a error in the deal
Russell Gorall

Just noticed Metacritic is teaming up with Gearbox to get any negative user reviews of Borderlands 2 deleted. Very classy.
aStrangeDisease

Borderlands 2 Season Pass is not much of a deal for Canadians. We only get 1400 points for $20 which means the Season Pass (@ 2400 points) costs $34.29 for 4 pieces of DLC. If each piece cost $10, (the average) then that is a savings of only $5.71. Fix the pricing for MS Points in Canada, Microsoft! Our dollar is worth more than yours!

Wow, the DotW was starting to improve a little bit for awhile there and was almost starting to get half-way decent. It looks like it was just a fluke though however. X-Men is the only decent thing for 2 weeks, but I won’t get it b/c it’s likely that no one plays it online anymore. Wouldn’t mind a sale on Crysis 1, and Resident Evil 4 and Code:Veronica games. $20 is a little much, but for $10 each I’d buy all 3 instantly. Also wouldn’t mind getting Orcs Must Die 2 brought over to XBL as well, they added co-op to it that looks so much fun!

  Also X-Men Arcade has been 200.
L31GHS

So where’s the Texas heat DLC then???
