More XBOX 360capades...



It's again time to sink deep into the world of my Xbox 360 (Sorry that 90% of my newer posts are about video games, I'm currently obsessed with my X360 Elite!!). My next post will not be about video games, I promise! If you haven't read my other post, "FLASH DRIVEy XBOX 360capades", please read it before you read this post. Anyway, let's proceed...

As you might have read in my "Spelling Joys" post, my parents have generously gifted me 2000 Microsoft Points to spend on my Xbox 360. I have not squandered my newfound video-game currency wealth; I still have 650 Points left after buying the following well-researched items:
  1. 400 points-Marble Blast Ultra-Xbox Live Arcade game-see leftmost image
  2. 400 points-UNO-Xbox Live Arcade game-see rightmost image
  3. 100 points-UNO PGR3 theme deck-game add-on.
  4. 400 points-Forza 2 December Car Pack-game add-on.
  5. 50 points- Forza 2 Peugeot 908 car-game add-on
Marble Blast Ultra is a game where you manipulate a marble through wild courses in a beautiful world, Astrolabe Arena, whilst picking up gems, struggling to make it to the finish before par time. UNO is Microsoft's version of the classic card game, customizable with theme decks, which skin the UNO cards, environment, and add a special card (i.e. the 35th Anniversary theme deck, pictured, includes a card where the next player must play a 3 or 5 of the current color.) The December Car Pack adds 11 cars to Forza 2, including the Audi R8/Le Mans Quattro, Ferrari FXX, and Jaguar XK Coupe.

Only time will tell how I will spend my remaining 650 Microsoft Points...
