There's a pretty good sale running on Xbox Live right now. Starting today and running until April 4, the "Extreme Shopping" promotion has dropped prices on many Xbox Live Arcade games, DLC add-ons and Avatar items. Some of the highlights include Alien Breed episodes 1 and 2, Monkey Island 2, Defense Grid, Darwinia , Doom 2 and Crazy Taxi all for half price at 400 points ($5) each. Costume Quest can also be had at half price, 600 points ($7.50).

Also up for grabs, all Halo Wars DLC has been knocked down to 400 points, as has Red Dead Redemption's Undead Nightmare pack. Or, if you're feeling frisky, the entire Undead Nightmare Collection has been reduced to 1000 points ($12.50). Finally, MS will also be offering some special one-day deals on April 1, though exactly what those offers will be is a mystery for now.

Oh, there's also a cheap Avatar Chewbacca costume. You know, in case you've been wanting one, or something. Hit the source link for all the current deals.

Update: As commenters have noticed, Major Nelson has posted the one-day deals for Friday, April 1. They are:

Fallout: New Vegas Dead Money Add-on 400 MS Points ($5)
Comic Jumper 400 MS Points ($5)
Deadliest Warrior 200 MS Points ($2.50)
Fable 3 Understone Add-on 200 MS Points ($2.50)

i picked up costume quest earlier...the 1200 price tag was stopping me...especially since it has DLC for it and i generally will get DLC if i like a game.

i really didnt like the demo for deadliest warrior...but for two hundred points its tempting...i was just watching the marathon yesterday for the show.

I grabbed Faery for $5, too. The port of that PSP shitball known as Unbound Saga was about 120 Microsoft Points, too. I suggest anybody interested go on Xbox Live and look at the features. It's hard to walk away without buying something. Hell, I already have Crazy Taxi for the Dreamcast and PSP and I may just go ahead and get the XBLA version since it's so cheap.

I dunno if I want Dead Money or Comic Jumper more.

themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.
