With all the stress of Christmas shopping, you may have left someone off your gift list: Yourself. This is just a friendly reminder that Microsoft has you covered this week, with 50 percent discounts on Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Prince of Persia Classic. You can grab both at $7.50 and $5, respectively, starting tomorrow. Lara Croft is co-op too, so you could even claim that you bought it for someone else (good luck explaining why it only works on your Xbox though).
Oh, and if you're looking for a digital lump of coal, Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime will also be 50 percent off at $5.

Yeah that Ghostbusters game is a digital turd. If it were to drop to 200msp I'd still have a hard time justifying it.

@SuperWoody64 You could use those points to buy some nice indie games

@trickybuz93 I have a couple indie games, I prefer the official xbla releases though. I'll save my puntoes for something worthwhile. (I already have LaraCroft and PoP)

Guardian of Light is fantastic, I finished it solo a few months ago but was enjoying it again in a co-op game with my 9 year old just yesterday.

Sorry XBLA, but Skyrim has Skyrimmed the Skyrim out of my Skyrim.
I don't think I'll even be considering another game purchase until maybe Bioshock:Infinite next year. Or ME3... Whichever comes first.
It's a good thing CoD sold so much, otherwise Skyrim may have sent the game industry into a tailspin of unsold games...
Jk. Sort of.

Is this for gold members only?

Boy, it sure would be nice if PSN got an individual story every time something went on sale.
But, I guess if you're not Microsoft, you don't get that kind of coverage.

MS has DotW every week. I can't say for sure about the PS3 because sometimes it's taken me the entire week just to catch up on patches.

I read somewhere that Guardian of Light is going to be the free December game for Playstation Plus. Now I can't find the article. Can anyone confirm?

I bought Guardian of Light at PSN last month for half price (223 rub ~ 5.36 eur currently) and Outland too.

I have a question about tomb raider. Does this game allow you to play with random people in co-op. I ask this because I don't have any friends that play on the xbox. All my friends are to busy doing non gaming things. I know I know I need to get better friends and all that jazz.

You should be able to find someone here. People are usually looking most when a game comes out or goes on sale.

Lara and her buddy seem to go on sale every 5 months or so. Which is great because I haven't bought the game yet. Gonna be all up in that temple, solving some puzzles

Most of the games that have been released during one of the various seasonal promotions tend to get a good airing of sales.
