On April 2, Microsoft is temporarily slashing prices off Xbox Live Arcade games like Ikaruga in Japan.
Bionic Commando Rearmed, Lumines Live, Buku Sudoku, Mad Tracks, Schizoid, Defense Grid: The Awakening and Ikaruga drop from 800 Microsoft Points ($10) to 400 Microsoft Points ($5). R-Type Dimensions and Puzzle Quest: Galactrix also get a 400 point price break bringing each title to 800 and 1,200 Microsoft Points, respectively.
While Microsoft usually has worldwide sales, this promotion has only been announced in Japan so far. And Microsoft Points are more expensive in the Land of the Rising Sun so this isn’t a deal for us… unless Microsoft suddenly springs as sale on us.
The Xbox Live Arcade half-off campaign runs on April 2 @ 6PM to April 7 @ 6PM.
