Undertow expansion on LIVE at 400 MS points [Update]

Update: It looks like the original price-point of 200 MS points this morning was in fact an error as the price of the Undertow expansion has been raised to 400 MS points.
Earlier in the week we reported that the expansion to Undertow, Microsoft's apology gift to gamers for the LIVE service downtime, would be hitting the Marketplace at 400 MS space bucks today.
Well, one for two ain't bad. The Undertow expansion, Path of the Elect, has hit the Xbox Live Marketplace but at the low price of 200 MS points (aka $2.50). According to the listing on Xbox.com the expansion pack price was slated at 400 MS points, so it is unclear if the content was priced down prior to release or if the Xbox Live Marketplace listing is an error.
Regardless, 200 MS points for the expansion is a steal and fans of Undertow should take notice immediately -- especially if this was a mistake!

This is of course genius on the developers side. By giving away Undertow once the sales post-release had died down they created a huge install base for this expansion. With such a large number of Xbox Live users owning the original selling the expansion at such a low price will still reap a huge profit.

I can't stand how little the person your control in the game. The lack of a zoom (like N+) really kills the game for me. Plus the fact that it gets boring very quickly.

Ugh... I am at school and I really want this too.......

Woot! Finally something to spend these 200 MS points on. I've been stuck with that amount for awhile now.

Who the fuck plays undertow?

Man, I cannot believe how negative some people are about this game. If you don't like it, fine, but it hardly sucks. Multiplayer is especially fun.

I just purchased it with 200ms points I had laying around. Only played the first lvl but it seems good.

Exactly, EMaster. Free game and I still want a cash refund.

The 200 MS Point error has now been fixed and it's back to it's originally stated price of 400 MS Points. Bummer for those who didn't get it for 1/2 price this morning.

Not going to be worth it. 5 levels? Could we maybe get some achievements with that? Microsoft's not going to get any more money from me when it relates to Undertow.

Bahaha, I'm so glad I got it while it was 200MS. A steal :)

Yeah me too...Just got done playing through the new 5 campaign missions and there's a cliff hanger ending that suggests we might be in store for some more DLC in the future. Hopefully they make this mistake again and offer it for 200 MS points because there's no way I'm paying 400 MS points for it.
