Default XBLA Monday Deals

Mortal Kombat Arcade: 400MS Point
Dungeons & Dragons Daggerdale: 600MS Points

I'm not interested in Mortal Kombat but I will be downloading the demos for
the other 3 to test out this evening.

Tempted, but the original was fantastic and utter shit at the same time.
So I don't know if I want to play it again...

This is fantastic. I bought it for 400 points, and have had my money's worth
many times over. Relies on you liking RISK, obviously. There's the classic
board game version, an updated version with odd twists and a variety of
maps, and even a 'wacky' story-driven campaign mode (using the updated
rules).

I do that occasionally with my games on my shelf currently I have the Mass
Effect games, Bioshock's, Red Dead Redemption, Fable 3, Dragon Age & all the
rubbish I have picked up in the last few weeks.

Theres some fighting and lots of hiding and seeking. The latter of which
ruined it for me.

It's a sort of mini Zelda. You have to find upgrades for your ship to get
to new areas. You have to photograph wildlife and enemy actions. You have
to sneak around enemies rather than take them on directly.

It's an amazing game and well worth the £2 that's being charged here. I'm
buying it again.
