Today's XBLA sales are simply ridiculous photo

The daily sales that come and go on Xbox Live can be hit or miss, but today's are just insane. All of them are 50% off, down from 1200 Microsoft points:

You can't really go wrong with any of these, and one might say they represent some of the best of what's on Xbox Live Arcade. Remember: these deals are for today, Friday, only!

Really sweet deals, but I have all of them except Monday Night Combat...which I can't really recall what it is. If nothing else, grab Castle Crashers and Shadow Complex if you somehow (shame on you!) don't have them.

Just bought Trials the other day >< Pretty decent game though. Shadow Complex is fantastic, I cannot picture any gamer not enjoying it - and at that price it's really a steal.

Maybe I'll get Trials HD? I haven't had a rage-induced stroke in a while.

Every Friday the FNF crew usually has a game of MNC going. It's a lot of fun.

Finally a time to get LIMBO and Trials. I was waiting for a deal like this!

Disappointing. I own all but one of these games and Shadow Complex doesn't interest me.

I didn't own any. Just bought Limbo... considering Castle Crashers. Wasn't interested in SC or Trials, but people are definitely championing those games in the comments.

If you don't have Shadow Complex, I don't know what you are doing with your life...pick that shit up, $7.50 is a steal.

I'll probably grab Limbo, maybe MNC. Haven't tried that out yet, but it looks fun.

Great games all around, though. You pretty much can't go wrong with any of them at these prices.

Only have 400 points, and you can't buy 200 points at a time. Microsoft lost a sale from me.

FUHK YEAR I'm going to get me some LIMBO. My brother just moved back in with his 360 so I'm going to make him buy it

What exactly is 'retarded' about a sale on goods? Seems like a good thing to me, but I am a rational man....

Last week's sale was better, imo. Xmen for 200, Comic Jumper and Dead Money 400 each, and I'm having a ball with Jumper right now; much more so than I expected.

Mind you, I already have Limbo and MNC. XD

I actually had held off on all but Trials, so I'm very excited to take advantage of these deals. Still not sure if I want to buy Castle Crashers, but Limbo and Shadow Complex are definitely getting added to my library.
