II – 600 MSP) at discounted prices from September 4th – 10th. Kinect Central has two sales: Kinect Central – Just Dance 3 Spring Break Pack (320 MSP from September 4th – 10th.), Kinect Central – Rhythm Party (400 MSP from September 11th – 17th). Continue to check your Xbox “Sales & Specials” section to see all discounted games.
Well, one thing is for sure when it comes to weekly deals; PopCap will more than likely have Plants vs. Zombies on sale. Perhaps they should just lower the price permanently? I would like to personally thank everyone for tuning in again for another chapter of Xbox Live News with Pipper. Now go water your plants because they are probably dying, and always remember to “Play Hard or Don’t Play At All!”
