They also hinted that if you have the arcade title, it would unlock "cool things" in the retail version.

The link actually states that the price has already been dropped on the European servers, but it's still showing as 800 for me. Either way, I'm really pleased that I held off on this one. I was thinking about buying it just the other week. 400MSP is an absolute steal.

That didn't last long, I was thinking about picking this up, but by the time I got to the marketplace it offer had been pulled.

Saved myself 400pts I guess

Did the offer go into effect then? I was under the impression that the early European price cut was only happening on the PS Store, and that the marketplace cut would happen on the 25th world-wide.

That explains it, and the mix up over at MS. I didn't read the 25th May in your message, I just saw it on Major Nelson's website saying it started yesterday, then it was withdrawn a few hours later.

Yep, think the major just got mixed up with his info, will be grabbing this one next week at 400 points, and Blazing Birds will use up the other spare 400 points it would leave in my account

I haven't even play the demo but for 400 points I will pick it up.

Loved it on my Amiga/Spectrum

The offer's in effect now: Xbox LIVE Marketplace | BC:Rearmed

CRZombie · 25-05-2009, 10:07 AM

Is this going to be the xbox deal of the week, or just capcoms reduction

I can see xbox DOTW advertising it also,

Almost forgot about this one, better kick the missus off the Wii in a minute so I can get on there and claim this little bargain

Bantocks · 25-05-2009, 4:24 PM

will try the demo first. metacritic reviews seem to be positive.

Rorifett · 25-05-2009, 5:32 PM

Is the offer only for Goldmembers?

Unfortunately, yeah.

Rorifett · 25-05-2009, 5:44 PM

That is indeed a bit steaming pile

do you know if using my one-month free for sending my xbox off to MS will count as an upgrade?

Yeah, that would work fine. The 48 hour cards are the only subscriptions that don't fully upgrade a silver account.

It's a great game but hard as nails, I haven't even managed to complete the first level yet

ukbootlegs · 26-05-2009, 9:48 AM

I forgot about this.

Is it running all week or just yesterday?

I downloaded it as a demo, but it couldn't find anyone to play against. Is there a single player version also?

I don't wanna play online!

It's single player or local co-op only

Oh, and it's running all week so no need to panic

Only when this offer ended did i decide to get it for an extra 400 points
