For those who don't want to deal with points for past Arcade titles you can now buy the code from amazon for exact cash. They also are selling Point and Subscription codes as well. Good for those who get amazon gift card from their CC rewards. Be award titles from the last month or so are not on there yet

Interesting.......this seems to cement the monetary advantages of digital distribution. I am curious to see if PSN and Nin follow suit.

Don't forget you can also "gift" someone your purchases. So this way if you want to, you can send your friends, and family members XBLA games via Amazon.

This is probably one of the best thing MS did to market XBLA.

The Amazon Live store charges $49.99 for 13 month subscription, while amazon.com charges $38.99. It's useless to me because I only buy point cards on sale anyways.

Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
