Going on right now is a deal on Xbox Live Arcade to get a rebate on some Microsoft Points. Much like the Summer of Arcade Promotion, which by the way I haven't gotten my points back yet, if you buy a certain amout you will be returned a certain amount.

The number to hit is [2400] MS which works out to thirty dollars. And for this, you'll get [800] MS back, of course it'll be at a later date. It's not common to see Xbox Live promotions, although recently it has become more common. So personally, I'll be taking advantage of this promotion. There's plenty of stuff I wanted to pick up but just haven't because it's a tad over priced on XBLA.

This looks to be my tentative list

Mass Effect 2: Shadow Broker - 800
Plants vs Zombies - 1200
Castlevania HD Map - 400

With theses being possible back ups or future purchases

Scott Pilgrim vs The World  - 800
Ikaruga - 800
Chime - 400

But just to make sure I didn't forget anything, is there something I'm missing?I own a lot of the stuff I wanted on XBLA. I was considering Hydrophobia or Super Meat Boy, but they're too expensive for me and I have other priorities. I have Rez HD. I recently picked up Splosion Man. I'm still passing on Trials HD.

What about The Maw? Or Toy Soldiers?

    Concerning ME2,the smarter thing would be to wait for GOTY edition or PS3 version and get all the dlc.Especially when you can trade in games over in US.

    They're doing that for the ME2 DLC's as well, irc. I already have the Fallout 3 DLC's so it does me no good lol.

    Toy Soldiers wouldnt be your kind of game, its very slow paced and has a small margin of error....Mess up one thing, and you have to restart the whole level cause it will go downhill from there.

    Let me just tell you Shadow Broker is REALLY GOOD. Definitely worth the 800 points.
