Woot! May finally get this Laura Croft game.

Too many games I want/need right when/before Borderlands. Ugh. I'm never going to fix my ratio.

Highly recommend Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, especially if you're a fan of two-player co-op. This is one of a handful of XBLA games I've felt was worth every penny I paid for it, and that was at 1200 MSP. At 600, it's a steal.

Don't forget the 1:1000 chance to win a "Chinese Takeout" Avatar Prop if you win from Scratch and Match, which is hardly ever...

Does anyone know anyone that has actually won the Scratch & Match game?

I gave the Mystery Wheel two shots, got the Vine Wall and Gas Mask =(

Zombies must die is tempting at that price... still not sold on the mystery wheel though. Exclusivity is fine, but if they changes every other week then there'll be too much to keep up with, or they'll start doing non-exclusive stuff.
