There’s no denying that the week of E3 is an exciting time for gamers. New games, technology, and hardware are all on display for the world to see and geek out on. Amazingly, there’s more than one reason to celebrate during E3 this year. And no, I’m not talking about the return of booth-babes in cosplay, either.
Microsoft’s Larry Hryb (AKA Major Nelson) announced today that beginning next week, several Xbox Live Arcade titles will be going on sale. Some of the discounts, found below, are over 50% off the original price. For those of you who have yet to try out titles like Shadow Complex, Alien Hominid HD, or Castle Crashers because of the price, now might be the best time to take the plunge. I mean honestly, could you really pass up last year’s award-winning puzzler, Braid, for 800 Microsoft Points (that’s $10 in real money)?
No, I didn’t think so.
