Following Sony's announcements of the April Foolishness Sale and PSP Favourites promotion earlier this week, Microsoft has today revealed a cost-cutting activity of their own. From today, eight top titles held on the Xbox 360's Xbox LIVE Arcade are available for half-price, and two further titles are set to be greatly reduced. These sale prices are limited however, available for only seven days.
Over the last 25 years, there has been a fair few South Park games, and here GameSpew has ranked them all from best to worst.
We are going to see a lot of crap South Park products since they sold out to paramount years ago. It's their IP they can sell out, of course; it just means the quality of their show has tanked and other products as well. Nevertheless, they put on excellent musicals, but those haven't been sold to a mega corporation.
They said awhile ago that Ubisoft holds contract rights to the main flagship South Park games. So like stick, fractured and phone destroyer.
Snow Day was handled by THQ and Question and is a random spinoff. Hopefully Ubisoft is cooking something.
Loved the RPGs but never played the others. Have to track them down. Still not sure about Snow Day though.

But that in turn does bring hope - hope to all those who are looking for cheap gaming fixes as they get the chance to do so with the older, previously missed, titles. And that is where the Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 10th-16th March 2020 comes in, delivering all manner of cut price goodies to Xbox One and Xbox 360 gamers."

But it has to be said that the game launches that were initially promised are a little on the slow side, particularly in terms of the AAA titles that we know and love. But hey, there is another way of enjoying some mammoth gaming experiences - and that is by picking up some discounted titles via the Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale. And between the 11th-17th February 2020, there is once more a whole ton of nicely discounted games with multiple publishers coming to the fore."
... and nothing on that list really interests me. Bit of a disappointment.
When the hell are they finally gonna discount TrialsHD!?
I dunno... I'm tempted to pick up South Park finally...
I grabbed South Park.
Well, I'm partly glad they actually didn't lessen the prices of XBLA games I've been wanting for a while because I didn't take my 360 away with me over this week.
...it's not "inventory", if it's only available as a digital download. Just sayin'....
