Sales & Specials+: Week of October 30th, 2012

Sales & Specials+: Week of October 30th, 2012

Pretty sweet Scratch & Match discounts this week!

Written by Dat Boi Treezy on 31 October 12 at 02:36

First of all, apologies for this article being a bit late today. I was stuck at work for much longer than expected tonight and didn't get home till quite late.

As for the Sales & Specials this week, there's not a whole lot of change unfortunately. Mystery Wheel will be dishing out the same prizes as detailed in last week's Sales & Specials article, and Chain Reaction features the same set of Lara Croft goodies that were also available at discount prices last week.

Scratch & Match switches all three XBLA titles this week for another set. Gamers can crawl through the dungeons of the pretty well-recieved Torchlight, set out on a quest for revenge with http://www.trueachievements.com/The-Dishwasher-VS/achie....htm, and/or take their chance against hordes of zombies in Dead Block. All three of these titles are on sale this week with a nice 50% discount.

Tennis Racket

Cool sales. Tempted to get The Dishwasher since it's the only one of those three that I don't have, but I have SO many Arcade games on my HDD that I haven't even played yet. These last couple weeks have been great sales. =P

Anyone know if there will be a one day sale tomorrow? If not, I need to get one of these to get that 2,000 October rewards offer, and by one I mean Dead Block or VS. I already have Torchlight. Don't know which one to get though.

Torchlight was good fun, picked it up for 600 last time it was on sale and wasn't disappointed, but just like games of that type, it gets boring after a while and not much replay value after you get the 200 GS.

Create a free US/UK account, download the app and use it with your main account. Works like a charm. I wonder why the TA folks haven't already put the bit in those news but eh
