He also outlined another group of games getting the Deal of the Week treatment. Do note that there's no rhyme or reason to the group or price slashes, and doubly note that all the games that received the Voorhees "hello" are all pretty-good-to-standard downloadable offerings.
Lastly, Nelson revealed the next two new-old games that are set to join the Games on Demand line-up (in most territories): Red Faction: Guerrilla and Need for Speed Undercover. Triply note that the latter game is not a good game. It could be called by many a "bad" game, in fact.
Racing. Undercover.

As usual, the Deal of the Week will run until Sunday afternoon or so and will only be available for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. Silver members, though, can join with the Gold crowd in giving Microsoft and respective publishers money for the Games on Demand and Xbox Live Arcade downloads which should be appearing on June 8 and June 9, respectively.
Since they brought on Brad Nicholson.
So, if he goes away will these no longer go up?
Hmmm, maybe I'll get Serious Sam. But then again, same price point as Earthworm Jim? Early Shiny stuff is hard to pass up. Thanks for posting, I usually don't bother to scroll over on my Dashboard for this stuff.
Then why look at them? Or better yet why post on the articles at all?
Damn. That's a good week for deals. Worms 2 is awesome, and I'd like to pick up those shooters. Add in some Earthworm Jim lovin, and I'm sure my MS points will be nonexistent at the end of the week.
...even tho I played it to death on the DS
...and even tho my arcade titles I bought because they were "only five bucks" are starting to pile up.
Grumble, stupid deals of the week.
Then Matt will probably post it.
Then don't read them. Problem solved.
Peggle on an HDTV is exactly the same as it is on a DS or iPhone... it's still fucking awesome. But bigger. And the ode to joy is overwhelming comming out of your surround sound.
