Duke Nukem 3D lands on XBLA next month
13
Speaking to Joystiq, Xbox representative Jason Ing has revealed that Duke Nukem 3D should hit the Xbox Live Arcade service "sometime in September." For those keeping score, September starts in just over a week. Ing reconfirmed that the game has passed certification and also revealed that the game will be published by Microsoft. Duke Nukem 3D is set to include minimal graphical enhancements akin to what was seen with the XBLA port of Doom. Frankly, we don't care what it looks like as long as it has shrink rays and deathmatch.

Is it better to buy a points card or to simply buy points as you go on XBLA?

Either way, you spend the same if you buy from the marketplace or cards from the store. I wish they would at least discount the points when you buy a bigger quantity of them.

Points Cards are much cheaper than buying from Microsoft direct via XBL.
I'm in the UK & get my points for the same price as in the US - 800MSP for $10; so ppl in the US must be able to get them even cheaper.
You just have to know where the best deals are - in the UK, Tesco Online offers the best deal for Microsoft Points; approx £5.30 for 800MSP : )

And sometimes, you can find points cards on sale. Target had the 1600 cards for $15 last week. Circuit City runs similar sales. Check your local papers.
