Xbox LIVE Gold members, listen up! The reason you pay your subscription fees has finally been revealed!
According to Xbox mouthpiece Major Nelson (he’s been really prolific with his posts today!), over one million Xbox LIVE users voted on your favourite Xbox LIVE Arcade games of 2009, from games like Trials HD and Splosion Man, to Battlefield 1943 and Shadow Complex, in categories such as ‘Best Original Game,’ ‘Best Graphics’ and ‘Best Innovation.’
The results of the voting follows below:
For this week only, Xbox LIVE Gold members can take advantage of Xbox LIVE’s Deal of the Week, which involves a price cut on both sets of downloadable content for the original Mass Effect, as well as Battleship for Hasbro’s Family Game Night.
This week’s Xbox LIVE Deal of the Week saves consumers 50% off of a purchase of any of the Hasbro Family Game Night game components.
Usually priced at 800 MS Points each, for this week only Xbox LIVE Gold members will be able to buy Battleship, Connect 4, Scrabble, Yahtzee, Boggle, Sorry and Sorry Sliders for 400 MS Points each.
If you have family or friends coming over to visit any time soon, now would be a good time to break out a few digital Hasbro games!
It looks like a triple feature this time on the old Xbox LIVE Arcade, as Banjo-Tooie, Cyber Troopers Virtual On Oratorio Tangram and Sorry! (for Hasbro’s Family Game Night) make their way onto the service.
First up is Banjo-Tooie for 1200 MS Points, the re-release (and ante-upped) second entry to the Banjo Kazooie franchise released on the N64 all those years ago:
“The bear and bird’s second outing available in full. Loads of rollicking fun to be had here and with the legendary Stop N Swap feature reinstated. The best use of a backpack in a game ever!”
Next up is Cyber Troopers Virtual On Oratorio Tangram, known to fans of the series as VOOT, also available for 1200 MS Points, which is also a release of the classic mech arena fighting game:
