    This would be great if XBL was actually working. Every time I try to download something I get these errors: 80150101 or 807B01F4.

    Anyone know if the “banned” South Park episodes are on Live (and on sale)…they never went up when all the controversy was going on. Would love those two episodes uncensored.

      …and no, they are not. Episodes 5 and 6 are not listed for season 14. Oh, well, guess I’ll just buy the DVD/ Blu Ray.

        Sorry to break it to you…..but ‘201’, the episode that was heavily censored last season because of the Muhammad controversy…….it’s censored on the DVD as it was when it originally aired. The uncensored version will likely never be released……at least not anytime soon.

    Is that right? Was Banjo Kazooie really 1200MSP to start with? Seems a lot.

      Yes it is 1200 normally and yes that seems about 400 points too high for a remake of a N64 game. But I bought it at 1200 and it’s an amazing game and I don’t regret it one bit. 600 is a great price for it.

      Microsoft has been very quiet when it comes to Game Room. According to the Game Room Facebook page, they’re focusing their efforts on the Windows phone version of Game Room. Hopefully they’ll come back to the 360 version soon.

    Thank you for putting Symphony of the Night on sale next week!!!! I’ve almost broke down and bought it so many times, and now I finally get too. It was on sale about a year ago and i didn’t get it because i’m an idiot, and now I finally get to amend that mistake.

    Also plan to check out the 200 point games on sale this week, it’s hard to say no to a game that costs $2.50. Also might get some Harmony of Despair DLC and Outland. Thanks for the great sales!

    Can’t wait for Bangai-O but I have to sigh as usual at the pricing of games on demand. Why oh why does a download cost twice as much as a disc from Amazon. Surely the download should be half the price, not twice the price…

      I forgot about those. Both are must buys for sure. For those that don’t know, Nin2 Jump is by schmup legends CAVE! AND (as if that wasn’t enough), all profits from the game are apparently going to Japanese tsunami relief charities.

      Trouble Witches Neo also looks pretty nice and is basically an HD version of the PC Engine classic schmup ‘Cotton’.

        After playing it maybe they should just make a good game then donate the proceeds from that. I am getting a bit tired of these meaningless gestures, some dudes play a game and want you to donate to them to give to Japan relief. Epic sells crappy Avatar gear and gives away the crappy proceeds while making about a billion a year. I don’t think playing crappy games is really charity, if that was the case I should have donated a lot by playing Rockstar games.
