Get out your Microsoft Points.
There are some good deals to be had on XBOX Live, particularly on EA content and Dance Central expansions. Some notable highlights from this week's sale are DeathSpank, Dragon Age: Origins, and UNO. If you haven't bought UNO yet, it's only 200 Microsoft Points ($2.50) for Gold Subscribers.
The classic card game manages to be one of the most enjoyable titles on Xbox Live Arcade.
At the launch of the Xbox 360, the new Xbox Live Arcade service was introduced but there wasn’t a lot to be excited about. Oh sure, ports of Smash TV, Bejeweled 2, and Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved is fine but there was nothing of real substance in the XBLA launch lineup. Fast forward to May of 2006 and a digital version of the card game UNO is released. In less than a year’s time, it becomes the first XBLA title to surpass one million downloads. How is it that a title like this has become so successful? UNO succeeds because of the simplicity of the rules and the simple controls.
