    To my knowledge. It's the first time any Games on Demand games have been worth buying to me outside of drunken convenience at least.

    I'm disappointed. I was hoping you were taking time out of your cruise to MS rage

      Ha. I was actually finished with the cruise and in Seattle at the time of that post. And I only rage when it's warranted. LOL. It's hard to hate on a sale.

          So, are these going on sale at different times? Because Bionic Commando, the only one I kind of wanted to play, is till 19.99

          I could maybe talk myself into Dark Void though, I don't know why. I guess because it's 4.99. Has anyone played Conan? Even it's dogshit it's only 3.99

          Still, it's just sad comparing this sale to what Sony is doing with PS+, and I don't even play my PS3 that much.

          Edit - Just read BC was replaced by Alone in the Dark. Well, blech.

            Sounds like you need to play your PS3 more. Problem solved! I'm glad I checked my gane libray because I was going to get BC but I already own it. LOL. Dark Void is definitely worth that price and I had a blast playing Conan. It's like a poor man's God of War. Definitely worth $5.

            Side note: I also like how MS's weekly sale this week is just part of what Sony had last week...and continued this week with added shit. It's just the Sonic stuff. MS needs to take a tip from Sony's old PSP spokesman Marcus and "Step their game up."

                      The only one of those games I would even consider getting day one is Tony Hawk, and that's iffy. I'll probably pass because it's going to be such a DLC trap.

                      Deadlight looks cool and looks to be the closest we'll ever get to a Shadow Complex sequel, but I'll wait for a sale.

                      Wreckateer can eat a dick. Fucking Kinect garbage.

                        Link: Xbox Live Is Down, For Now

                        Kotaku has heard that users in multiple regions can't login into the Microsoft game console's online service. Attempts to get onto Xbox Live at Kotaku's NYC headquarters haven't been successful.

                        Microsoft has said the following via Twitter:

                        We are aware of the issues some users are having with Xbox LIVE and are actively investigating. Thanks for your patience.

                        We'll update more on this outage as news becomes available.

                        Update:
                        As of this post's initial writing, it was Xbox Live sign-in that wasn't working. Now, at 12:50 ET, signing and accessing Zune services and video is down as well.

                              Hopefully they're still there and weren't stolen.
