    i had to do a search for the two Arcade games bc the dashboard notice for the sale was only showing me the Borderlands stuff and nothing else. Axel & Pixel was easy to find, but The Misadventures of PB Winterbottom took me THREE tries because the people who organize the Arcade's alphabetical order are morons. For starters, the word "The" is NOT the first word of anything's title when it's being organized. They taught us this in the fucking library in elementary school. Secondly, you don't ignored the majority of a game's title and just sort it by the last word! The game's name is "The Misadventures of PB Winterbottom" not "Winterbottom"! I had to look under 'W' to find the stupid thing! If it weren't 200msp, i wouldn't have even bothered searching for the fucking listing!

    English, motherfuckers! DO YOU SPEAK IT?! angry
    A) the 2k publishers sale is on the dashboard. The arcade games are on page 4

    B) speaking of speaking English, the easiest way to find anything is with your Kinect. Say "Xbox - Bing Winterbottom" voila!

    I panicked when I saw the headline, after blitzing 9k points in the last two weeks.

    Luckily I already own everything here, including the avatar item lol

    Those arcade games have great reviews, from what I've seen. Will definitely try the demos and hopefully pick them up.

    Borderlands GOTY edition just went on sale for $20 new (or $19 used) at Gamestop... same price as the DLC plus you get the game too.

    Nothing we didn't already know... It just lacks a little bit of info:

    We just need someone confirm that those are AVALIABLE TO EVERYONE, not just gold users. I think they are and the info would benefit some people IMO.

    If you're having problems seeing pages 2-4 of the sale on your Xbox like me (I went to Gamestop to get points, came back and the last 3 pages disappeared), you can go to Xbox.com and make the purchase there and then initiate the download on your system. The prices are still changed there, so you can just pick what you want using this page and purchase them on the site.
    ...But why is the rum gone???

    I got borderlands GOTY edition for $15 on Amazon a while back, base game and ALL the DLC for $15 is a steal. DLC sales for big-name retail games are usually laughable if you're willing to wait patiently for a GOTY edition to drop in price and not buy the game for $60 at retail.
    200k/200k gs, 200 games played, 100% completion including all DLC, 11-13-11.
