I just read about this on Edge. OneBigGame is a monumental project just for the fact of getting such a collection of developers involved. (It could be called the "We Are the World" of gaming. ;) ) There are some big names in there. Looking forward to what they come up with. :)

Kinda disappointed I bought the DOTW before I saw this. Now out of points, and this seems like something I might be a little more into / can't fight money going to charity.
So it goes.
Thanks for the read Bedge smile
Use one of the quotes from that thread

I remember this from a while ago. Looks really cool. Just a warning, the game will only be on the marketplace for a limited of time, I think they said 4-12 months.

That's what I wanted to say aswell! That's why the game is only 400MS.

Microsoft don't choose the prices of the games, that's at the discretion of the publisher. It's no doubt this cheap to entice people to buy it, and as this topic has shown people will happily pay 400MSP for this.

I don't understand why they overprice games, surley more people will buy if the price is right. Nobody would pick this up for 800 but I bet more than double pick it up for 400 which tells me with my humble business head they would make more selling it for 400 then 800
