[Drexel923]

About time...I was all excited to download Frogger once Juganawt told me about it 20 minutes ago, but unfortunately I'm on the east coast. We've waiting so long for something new, I guess I can wait until the morning

$10 for SF II is gonna be a hard sell for me. It should be $5.

Yeah like every other classic game.

[Sothy]

what is cloning clyde?

[Vinnysdad]

$5 for Pac Man. I dont....$5 for Pac Man. I mean....$5 for Pac Man. Maybe I am cheap but $5 for Pac Man. No Sale!

[poloplayr]

RIDICILOUS prices.

[Rabid Peanut-Butter]

$10 for SF II is gonna be a hard sell for me. It should be $5.

Ditto.

Galaga is the only one I'm picking up for sure. Mainly because once Microsoft gets "Live Anywhere" up and running, that along with most of the other Namco classic titles will almost definitely be ported to every platform that supports Live Anywhere.

AMEN I agree, the marketplace content is a bit PRICEY right now, at least for most stuff..

[THATinkjar]

If you ask me, the only two things that are overpriced on XBLA are themes and the recent GRAW content. Everything else, in my opinion, is priced pretty fairly.

[Darren870]

Overpriced? The prices havn't changed on classic games and I new SF was going to be $800 points, I dont know how some of you didnt see that coming.

Anyways I will buy them all, as I always do.

[ShinobiMan]

It's worth it folks, to be able to play these classic games on LIVE with other people and other goodies. I'll be buying 'em. I got to save up some money though.

[njiska]

$5 for Pac Man. I dont....$5 for Pac Man. I mean....$5 for Pac Man. Maybe I am cheap but $5 for Pac Man. No Sale!

See if you want Pac-Man on the 360 you should be playing a little game called Ridge Racer, or as HiRai would say, "Riiiiiiiiiiidge Racer".

[GrandAmChandler]

The billiards game is still 1200 points right? I am not paying $15 for pool.

That's what the Live Gold Bundle is for. Get a spare headset, Bankshot and 200 MP for only a few dollars more.

[ClubNinja]

I'm still hard-pressed to pay anything for something that isn't at the quality level of Marble Blast. I swear, that game was made just to sell me a 360 console with the shattered hopes bundle. I've had the 360 since January and own Ridge Racer 6, Dead or Alive 4, Marble Blast Ultra, and Zuma (bought for MsNinja). DoA4 got old for me way too fast, Marble Blast is all done, and Zuma is an irregular play at best. RR6 is the only thing I do with the darn console (other than watch DVDs). I'm so bitter.

The good news is that, while XBLA isn't exciting me at all, there are supposedly a few titles coming out by the end of 2006 that I think I'll enjoy. Maybe.

[mailman187666]

the oblivion downloads are pocket change i think. I'm not into gamertags or themes so i won't pay for those. I got pacman on ridge racer 6 so I'm all set with that. I'll probably get street fighter, but i'm not interested in the other classic games. I don't know what Cloning Clyde is supposed to be all about but I'll at least check out the demo for that one to see whats up. I don't even know what kind of game it is so I can't say anything about that one yet. Its cool that they are comming out with 1 release every wednsday. I've been waiting for some new XBLA games. But most of those on the list I think I'm going to pass on just because I already have them for atari and like 100 other systems.

You need some more games. Prey, Call of Duty, Ghost Recon, Moto GP, etc. Plenty of superb titles are out there.
