Games on Demand: Saints Row 2, LEGO Indiana Jones photo

Drat your headline character limit, Elephant! I was one letter away from squeezing "next week" in there. You haven't seen the last of me; I know where you live.

On Tuesday, November 24, Games on Demand will see a few new additions to its decent catalog. That would of course be Saints Row 2 (except for Japan), LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures (except for Japan and Mexico), and Battlefield: Bad Company (only for Japan).

Microsoft wasn't willing to give out specific prices quite yet, but it's safe to assume these will range in the $19.99 to $29.99 area. We can only hope it shall be the former rather than the latter.

It's really painful to see Games on Demand get all of these games I'd gladly pay for, but only if they were competitively priced. And they never are. I figure if I mention how Microsoft should do significant sales every once in a while, it may eventually happen. Seriously, it'd do wonders for 'em.

LEGO Indy sells for 8 bucks used thanks to the holiday bundle. And SR2 I think stands around 15. Yet again, MS is oblivious to these things.

The only two competitively priced games I've noticed so far have been Bad Company and Dead Space. At $20 each, you can only get them for a few dollars less used, which made them worth the money for me.

OH! You are retarded Panda! Again, get off your high horse because you reeeally don't deserve to have your ass that high in the air.

Another thing, you don't get any props for spelling corrections with a spell checker you dumb ass. No you know what that make you? His bitch- you're editing his stuff for him, good job homework boy.
Why would Microsoft be oblivious to these things? They obviously have some kind of purchasing arrangement with these companies, so then why the hell would they not know the current markup?
No, they know they can make an easy buck off of the 12 year old with mommy and daddy's credit card. Sad, pathetic individuals...such as yourself!

impatient, stupid, consumers-
they see it, and they can't wait so much as a week for amazon to deliver.
AND HEY! Why should they when dad can just throw down an extra 20 and have it ON THE SPOT? to play for maybe the rest of the afternoon and then sit in their library never to be touched again. There is most certainly a lack of gratification when you don't have to wait but 5 minutes.

Yes, what a 'grand' service! For the microsoft-exploitation department...

thank you! impatient idiots and 12 year old PrIvIlEgEd Panda Renegades- yall just keep taking it in the ass, I'll keep on suffering for it.
There's no reason- NO FUCKING REASON those games shouldn't be 10-15 bucks a pop, besides capitalism of course and those cock suckers who bow to it. Suck Satan's cock.

Lego Indiana Jones is fun, but yeah, this will overprice it when there are plenty of used or less expensive new copies out there.

Yeah...sorry buddy but you're hoping for 19.99? Lawl, I guess if you enjoy having hope shattered.
hell even 29.99 is being modest.
Myself? I expect a 39.99 price tag for SR2 at least, with very little doubt-
not that I want that POS.

I mean the first; a 5 year old game was 30 bucks on demand the last time I checked.

"Games on Demand: LEGO Indiana Jones/Saints Row 2 Next Week" would've fit!

Saint's Row 2 will probably be 29.99, not 39.99
