XBLA sale: Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Turtles in Time, and more photo

Yesterday marked the beginning of a fighting game-themed Xbox LIVE deal of the week promo. Your months of waiting for Marvel vs. Capcom 2 to drop in price have finally paid off! It's now down ... five bucks. We'll take what we can get; years ago, $10 for MvC2 would have been a legendary find.

Already own the game? TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled is only $5, while Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao is down to $10. I'm still of the opinion that Turtles in Time is only good when the original 2D artwork is on full display. It's a nostalgia thing. If guys are going to be thrown at me, Mode 7 better be responsible.

Oh, and Darwinia+ is the Xbox LIVE Arcade game for this weekend. That's hitting on Wednesday and costs $15, in case you forgot.

Picked up MvC2 for $7 during the holiday sales. Still worth it for $10.

Not as good as that deal they had for the game during the holidays, but still, $10 is a mighty good price if you've missed out.

Bought "TMNT", since for $5, you cannot truly go wrong. Even if it's same old, same old, it's not like I broke the bank or anything.

I was told this is the place to go for those not playing BioShock2? Damn job. ;(

Also, who doesn't already own MvC2? Oh right, those allowance-kiddies with 'morals' about purchasing games that cost more than 800MSP. >_>

I don't already own MvC2, but my best IRL friend just bought it -- I'm going to have to pick it up so we can play online.

I'm always around here somewhere... where I am currently is a mystery, though.

All I know is, it's dark, and I'm scared... I think somebody touched me in my no-no zone. HELP!

Major Nelson huh? What purpose does he serve? I know that the gaming community is an aging one, and having an adult on XBLA speaks to the older generation, but what the hell do they need a senior citizen for? Also, why does his site look like someone threw up a wordpress template?

I'll get MvC2 when it's on sale on the PS3. I can't play fighting games on the 360.

I picked up Turtles in Time, because $5 seemed juuuust right for this game.

I found a PS2 copy of MvC2 about three years ago for $5. Do I win?

I wonder how much money GamesStop is shelling out for all these exclusives...
