Upcoming Xbox Live sales to feature half-price Pac-Man DX, discounted Clancy content

I've got 400 points that I've been holding on to. No longer.

God damn, that's a good deal for Pac Man. That game is fresh to death.

@Jerk Face

It's well worth the full price of admission, even better when it's half-off.

If you don't have Pac-Max CE DX, you really, really should pick it up. It's a hell of a game.

That week was actually a fan vote on the dashboard. There was nothing in the vote that I wanted so I picked it in hopes that more people would get to experience it.

Clancy whatever. PacMan boing boing boing

Pac-Man is still worth it full price. In fact I had it on my PS3 and when I got my 360, last month, I bought it again. It's that goooooood! I swear it's like being on cocaine

@The Minn

Seriously.

Pac-Man got overlooked by so many folks when it was released last year, overshadowed by other downloadable titles Scott Pilgrim and Costume Quest, not to mention the big guns on disc like CoD and Fallout: NV.

I''m glad to see some folks contracted the Pac-Man fever, and I also hope this discount encourages more people to check it out. It's so goddamned addictive...my personal GotY.

"Guess what?! I got a fever, and the only prescription...is more Pac-Man!!!"

@Urethra Alfredo I was really bored with Scott Pilgrim. Thankfully I tried the demo. Love the movie, though. I've gotten a couple peeps over Live to DL the trial and they've bought it. It really is a gem. I think it only got 10/10 from everyone, lol.

In order to get some of the Splinter Cell Conviction Co-op achievements, I had to play with myself. Will somebody here be my friend?

@GordoJones88

I just beat this game last week. Not a bad game.

I wish they would release more content for splinter cell. I thought the last dlc was excellent (love that N.O. level) but me thinks this that was the only one they had cooked up. Pac-man is a definite

Pac-Man DX is an amazing game. If any one has the slightest inclination of trying a Pac-Man game this is the one to try,

Nom Nom Nom

Anyone who fails to take advantage of the deal on Pac-Man CE DX hasn't got a brain. Or a soul. Or eyes. Or even hands. Because everyone with any of those things will buy the best downloadable game of last year for $5 in a heartbeat. Even those without hands.
