This week’s Xbox Live Deal of the Week deals are organized under the generous umbrella of “Mutants and more!” The soon-to-be-pulled TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled is available for just $5 / 400 Microsoft Points until July 4. (Note: Ubisoft told us it would be pulled at the end of this month.) That’s certainly mutant-themed, so what’s next? X-Men Arcade is also 50% off at just $5, so that’s another mutant-themed offering. So there’s something of a theme here …
… except the other three games are non-mutant-themed! The excellent Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is 50% off, dropping the asking price to just $7.50 / 600 Microsoft Points, while both Comic Jumper and Hard Corps: Uprising are 50% off, dropping their sticker prices to $5 / 400 Microsoft points each. While we love those deep discounts, is it too much to ask for a solid theme?
Next week’s offerings, while more thematically consistent, aren’t nearly as delicious. The highlight for “Heatin’ Up Summer” is definitely Torchlight for 33% off, at $10 / 800 Microsoft Points. Less enticing offerings include: Dante’s Inferno DLC, a Medal of Honor map pack, and a Red Hot Chili Peppers album for Rock Band.
