Free codes a comin'

Watch my Twitter for free XBL 1 Month and 48 hour codes starting later tonight!

Deal of the Week 11/2/08

Not much on sale just yet.  But if you pre-order GOW2 LE @ Circuit City and get a 1600 MS Points card for free.

Deal of the Week 10/26/08 - a day late

JR.com has Alone in the Dark for $20 simoleons.  Alone in the Dark is an interesting, but short piece of fiction.  A review is coming later, but this is probably one of the better adult action adventures on the Wii.  And if that doesn't tickle your fancy then pickup a 2 GB Sandisk card at Circuit City for $14.99 with free shipping. 

Deal of the Week 10/19

Looks like JR.com has an open box set of Rock Band available for sale.  The set includes the game, the mic, the RB guitar, and the drums for less than 100 greenbacks.  For those who have yet to bite the bullet on this game and it's pricey peripherals; this is your chance at a $70  savings.  Though open box items have been refurbished to work as they should, the set may have some cosmetic inequalities.

10/12/08 Deal of the Week

This week's deal is the Toys R Us' B2G1 Free.  Buy any two games and get one free with free shipping on orders of $49 or more; this includes new games like Dead Space, Gears of War 2, and Call of Duty: World at War. 

Get Braid and 400 MS points for just $15.

Target is having a sale on 1600 MS Points cards; so you no longer have any real reason to bitch about Braid's pricing on XBLM.  That is of course if you can't find one.  In fact if you've read the first sentence I seriously urge you to get to a Target ASAP.  Because I imagine there are others like myself that will buy 4 cards which essentially makes the fourth card free.  When I was at Target last night there were about thirty, so I didn't feel to bad when I swiped more than one.  But I imagine that most Target stores will be sold out by either late tonight or early tomorrow.

Braid by the way is an excellent game.  And though you may be able to blaze through most of the game in less than a day, it'll be seven hours well spent.  I myself have four pieces left to find, and while I doubt that I'll have the patience to complete the speed runs, I will definitely give it a try. 

So there you have it, get to Target, buy a discounted points card, get Braid off of the Marketplace, and be 400 MS points towards your way to Bionic Commando Rearmed which releases in a few days.

FYI, I know the picture is crap, looking to get an iPhone, when I don't have to wait in a line for hours on end.
