Microsoft is offering a rebate for their summer of arcade titles

If you purchase all of the titles ('Splosion Man, Trials HD, MvC2, Turtles in Time: Reshelled, and Shadow Complex) Microsoft will refund you 800 Microsoft points. I think this is a great idea and I'll probably look more seriously in getting Trials HD and Turtles in Time because of it. I was already getting Shadow Complex and I have MvC and Splosion Man. I know it seems silly to spend 30 dollars for a 10 dollar rebate but I would get two games that could potentially be very very good and get some of that money back.

What do you think? Is it worth it? Are you going to try to get the rebate or do some of these games just completely not interest you?

I'll probably get Trials HD and maybe get Shadow Complex but the other games don't interest me at all.

This kind of sentiment is what I'm seeing a lot all around and kind of how I feel about it. I'm not really interested in TMNT (no offense) but I've loved Splosion Man and MvC2. I'm going to seriously consider Trials and I'm getting Shadow Complex. It seems like if I get TMNT and Trials impresses me that I'll basically be getting it for free.

This offer is ONLY for people in the US, so once again an offer that most of the world can't enjoy. That said not many of those appeal to me. I'll try Trials HD, but doubt I would even get the demos for the other games. 1200 MS is/has become the standard for new games which really aren't worth it. This rebate is just to try and justify the higher price and get people to buy them all if they were already planning on getting most of them. Anyway, if you wait a while they will probably appear in Deal of the Week in a few months

Hell no it's not worth it, unless you were planning on purchasing them all in the first place. Spend $70 to get back $10? Doesn't sound right. I have MvC2 and plan on getting Shadow Complex, but that's it.

It's better than nothing right?

And i think all of these games are fun and worth the price, so i dont see why not...specially with this incentive...

Currently i only have Splosion and that was well worth the $10

But why would you buy games that you weren't planning on or don't want just because you get $10 back? That's was my point. I'd rather just pay for the two games I actually want and be happy.
