Much like with their Summer of Arcade promotions of the past, Microsoft is bundling a bunch of their most anticipated Xbox Live Arcade games into a few back-to-back (-to-back-to-back) weeks. This time they are calling it the "Block Party," and much like their last promotion, you'll be rewarded for downloading all the games offered. Downloading the 3 paid games (see below) will nab you 400 Microsoft Points ($5) and if you're a Gold subscriber you'll also get an extra month added onto your subscription. Silver subscribers get a bonus of their own with free access to Block Party's online multiplayer modes from March 26-29. Check out the lineup below:
March 3-- TOY SOLDIERS (1200 MSP/ $15)
March 10-- SCRAP METAL (1200 MSP/ $15)
March 17-- PERFECT DARK (800 MSP / $10)
March 24-- GAME ROOM (Free; see below)
The Game Room service will give you a digital arcade for your Avatar to roam through. You can buy "cabinets" featuring old-school arcade games for either 240 MSP ($3) or 400 MSP ($5); the more expensive version will let you play it on your PC as well. Now, go to your calendar and circle March 17 so you know exactly when to download the extremely affordable, enhanced version of the N64's best shooter.
