After a few weeks with not alot to play and the upcoming release of fable 2, i down loaded pub games which i have to admit i have become very addicted to, it cost 800 Microsoft points, bargain?
hang on a minute...no its not 100 micro soft points cost 85p (based on English pounds) so really it cost me £6.80 for a card game a dice game and a silly fruit machine game, all of which would be classed as free ware on the pc.
Now i see 2 games on arcade at 1200 ms points braid and castle crashers so let me get this straight £10.20 for a budget game there taking the piss now, you can buy quality games for a tenner such as gears of war,mass effect, saints row....and that's before you look in the pre owned sections.
I'm not tight and i fully understand that if i dont like the cost i dont have to buy any arcade games, but i do like playing some of the old classics i just think the prices are getting stupid, maybe they should devalue the games,like in the shops over time, or price them better.
Well looking forward to reading your views on the subject

Big quality games you say? Puzzle Quest, REZ HD, Contra, Castlevania: SOTN and Castle Crashers gave more hours of fun than the crappy campaign of Gears of War and Mass Effect.
The way i see it, some of the XBLA developers work their asses off to make games, they need payment, do you want them to sell their games for 400 MS ponits(5 bucks)?
