Sales & Specials+: Week of August 14th, 2012

Scott Pilgrim & Joe Danger play some Full House Poker?

Written by Dat Boi Treezy on 14 August 12 at 17:14

A different set of XBLA discounts are in full force with the Scratch & Match side of the Sales & Specials+ for this week, but BioShock 2 remains firmly under the explosive spotlight of the unchanged Chain Reaction. Full House Poker makes another appearance in the Sales & Specials+ but this time as a deal in the Scratch & Match instead of being the last part of the Chain Reaction as it was a couple of weeks ago.

Scratch & Match

Joe Danger: Special Edition - 1200 MSP 800 MSP
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game - 800 MSP 600 MSP
Full House Poker - 800 MSP 600 MSP

Chain Reaction

Protector Trials in BioShock 2 - 400 MSP 200 MSP
Sinclair Solutions Tester Pack in BioShock 2 - 400 MSP 200 MSP
Rapture Metro in BioShock 2 - 800 MSP 400 MSP
Minerva's Den in BioShock 2 - 800 MSP 200 MSP

The offers on the Sales & Specials+ are available for Gold and Silver members from the UK and the US.

Seems like Lode Runner is the S&M game this week.

I see MS has so few games to discount that they are already repeating items on this new Sales & Specials+ program...

If you don't have Scott Pilgrim I highly recommend it if you like beat-em-up games.
Specially with the multiplayer DLC coming out. I personally lost interest in the game already and wont bother getting the DLC, but when it was new I played it a lot with friends who came over to play.

I might get the Bioshock DLC since I will be picking up the game soon. I was gonna buy the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed DLC but I'll just get that another time.
