Microsoft Details 'The Game Feast' This September on Xbox Live

Summer of Arcade will officially end at 11:59pm EST today, so if you want to take advantage of the 1200 MS Points rebate for purchasing all five featured titles or claim 400 Points back for buying three, tonight will be your last chance. Cry not though, gentle reader for 'The Game Feast' begins on Xbox Live soon! Well, next month anyway.

Starting September 29th and running until October 20th, The Game Feast will pick up where Summer of Arcade left off, with four pretty big XBLA titles making their way to the Xbox Live Marketplace. Here they are:

  • September 29: Hydrophobia – 1200 Microsoft Points
  • October 6: Comic Jumper – 1200 Microsoft Points
  • October 13: Pinball FX 2 – Tables purchased individually, free import from original Pinball FX
  • October 20: Super Meat Boy – Pricing TBD

That's not all there is to look forward to in September of course, and as such, Microsoft has revealed some of its plans for the coming month, with some lovely XBLA titles, Deal of the Weeks and new game add-ons lined up:

XBOX LIVE ARCADE

  • September 8: Plants vs. Zombies – 1200 Microsoft Points (Available worldwide except Korea and Taiwan)
  • September 8: Dance! It's your Stage – 800 Microsoft Points (Available worldwide except Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico)
  • September 15: Sonic Adventure – 800 Microsoft Points (Available in North America and Europe)

DEAL OF THE WEEK

Week of September 6: Resident Evil 5

And finally, you might have heard of a little game called Halo: Reach. Well, following the game's launch on September 14th, Xbox LIVE Silver members will be able to enjoy Gold-only features from September 17th (17:00 pm) until September 20th (17:00 pm), so everyone can get their multiplayer on for a few days, no matter what colour Xbox Live membership they might have. Beautiful.
