I'm all over this one!!! Remember playing it for hours on end back in the day

About as overjoyed with this release as I was when the original Prince of Persia was released on XBL Arcade....another game that I played until my fingers bled

But it's Lode Runner, which is an absolute classic. Some may even say better than Pitfall. (inside joke)

It is Better Than Pitfall!

I'm so happy this game is out....I am a little disappointed it's $15, but from playing the demo it seems as though it's pretty deep.

Wanna do online co-op later?

Sure. We can do some co-op. Between that and L4D I'm hoping to get a busy night of gaming in.

New Xbox Originals now available: Max Payne and Max Payne 2

Xbox Originals has just released Max Payne and Max Payne 2. Both titles are now available for download for 1200 points each on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace.

1200 points each? You can both on Steam for $14.99

when has that ever stopped MS before? They even charge $15 for a game that originally released for $9.99 on the xbox. This is by far their worst implemented feature on Live, every game is overpriced, and I'll never buy any of them. I got the actual xbox copy of Black off ebay for $4.

Yes, but you have to play them on a PC, and some people prefer Console Gaming.

I myself, don't have a gaming PC anymore...

PC? I'm not sure what your getting at! MP 1 and 2 are both backwards compatible and work fine on 360. And you can go to gamestop right now or even Movie Trading company or Fry's and get them all for under $8 New and around $4 used.

1200 M$ points is just insane, and I'm tired of them adding titles that are already BC. Why not make some that we can't get from the BC list and then the 1200 points would be justifiable or beneficial.

Easy there killer.

I never said it was a good deal. I just think bringing up a PC Price in a thread about XBL Arcade is a moot point.

No I wasn't snapping at you, I just read wrong and honestly I don't really know what the heck steam is lol.

But no doubt one thing! M$ is ripping people off on Max Payne 1 and 2. I hope it doesn't download not one time and it fails. So those bastards can give us real games. Like Prince of Persia Trilogy and things like that. Games with worthy sequels that sold well.

Re: Xbox Live Marketplace and Live Arcade discussion Part III

Anyone read any rumors about a spring/summer Xbox Live update, or are we not really getting anything new on Live? Not a big deal, more just happened to think about it since it used to be a pretty regular seasonal release.

Destructoid

Pre-E3, Microsoft's announcements are always notoriously leaked all over the Internet well in advanced; this appears to be one what we can assume will be many. Hey, we have one, too: Based on an image sent to us anonymously, we have reason to believe Rare may actually, seriously be readying an Xbox LIVE Arcade version of Perfect Dark.

They've been quiet lately, but they're working on the delayed Primetime thing that was supposed to launch with the NXE. The last few small updates were just for behind the scenes infrastructure stuff to make Live run smoother, but it still sounds like they are looking to do a big feature rich update eventually.
