Reminder: Xbox Live 'Deal of the Week' is Pinball FX for $5

by David Hinkle { Sep 21st 2009 at 11:14AM }

Just as expected, today's Xbox Live Deal of the Week is none other than Pinball FX. MIcrosoft has slashed its price in half, Major Nelson reports, bringing the cost of the game down to 400

($5). It's not a bad price and, while it ain't no The Addams Family pinball, it's about your best bet for a fix considering the American arcade has all but gone the way of the ManBearPig.

Everyone knows that the ManBearPig and the American Arcade live on the same island as Tupac and Elvis.

I havent tried this game, but seeing as I already own (and I'm sure most people do) plenty of pinball games (pokemon pinball was the shit), I would have thought this game was already 5 dollars.

ya it blows my mind that a pinball game could be more than $5 to begin with...even the greatest pinball game of all time...it's frikkin pinball.

I upvoted you for your fine logic and that, yes, Pokemon Pinball was the shit.

There is a capital i after the M where it says "MIcrosoft has slashed. . ."

Eh five bucks for pinball? I think I will just play the pinball installed on my old xp pc. But might get that zombie game coming this week...

Hell yes to Addams Family pinball. What about Indiana Jones? I know I spent at least $10 playing that one night in my younger years.

Still have PinBot for the NES

One of the most awesome XBLA titles to date in my opinion.

Also releasing this week is Pinball Hall Of Fame : The Williams Collection with Midevil Madness and Tales Of The Arabian Knights tables, no idea if it will be good but Midevil Madness is one of the greatest tables ever.
