ZOMG! Marathon!

Been playing it for awhile on PC, but the enhanced graphics and online play intrigue me. Will definitely be picking it up.

I might actually get Spyglass.

1. It's only 400 for 4 games
2. I like good chess games
3. Xbox Live Vision means I can play with friends while bs'ing about the day's events. You know, a phone call... but playing a game while we chat
4. Never played Mancala - would love to learn how.

oh boy!
nothing like BALLS in the background of your checkers game, just what the XBL community needs.

i'll probably pick up the chess game , 400 points is pretty good and I bet that the online competition won't be as stiff as other online chess sites

and yea i know checkers isn't weird but reversi is, never played it and never even heard of manjula

I like the fact that you can play with someone sitting in the exact same spot as you, but in another dimension...

(look at the background on the picture in the post.)

I'm all over Marathon, I've been waiting for this for a while. Can't wait to play the DM over Xbox Live.

I'm totally buying both. I am really shocked they are charging only 400 pts for spyglass boardgames...so outside microsofts pricing scheme...awesome. I prolly wouldn't of bought it if it was 800pts too...smart move...downloadable games for it in the future?

I played Marathon for 20 minutes and got nauseous. Those old school shooters always did that to me, I haven't felt that from an FPS since playing Doom.

Something about those old drab pukey pixelly textures going by at 60 frames per second just churns my stomach.
