    What do you guys think if we had a sticky that covered discounted video games and systems? It seems that there are more sales these days than ever before and it would be nice to have this be a place to check for them.

    I am not a mod, so I don't presume to know that one sticky is better than several threads, but I thought I would share the idea.

    Here is one for $10 off (800 MS Points) when you purchase the entire Summer of Arcade. It troubles me though that Kotaku did not put a source link, and I see no mention of it on Xbox.com.

    Too many games I have no interest in to spend that many points.

    Well, TMNT, MvC2 and Shadow Complex are absolute purchases.
    I played the trial for Splosion man and that is pretty good -the only variable for me is Trials HD -but if I bought all the rest it would be a waste for me not to get it and get the 800 points.

    TMNT, MvC2 are for me. The rest not so much, but I am very selective on what I DL.

    I believe that is a good deal because most of the games are great. Also till August 2nd Gamestop has some great "new" games for $20. The most notable being Street Fighter 4.

    DUDE, I fucking love your SIG.

    If we do the Bargain thread, I'd like to add that gamestop has Condemned 2 for 8 bucks.

    How odd is that I noticed yesterday my local game shop has loads for £9. I heard it was a pretty good game too.

    I figured this was a "bargain" so, why not?

    Amazon has 12 months of Xbox Live for $35.

    That's $2.92 a month.
