SNK XBLA Games Free Through Modern Warfare 2

An odd glitch allows Modern Warfare 2 players to access the full versions of certain Xbox LIVE Arcade titles for free.

According to Worthplaying, all you have to do is boot up Modern Warfare 2, hit your guide button, and then run one of the affected XBLA titles through the Quick Launch button. For whatever reason, your 360 will boot the full version rather than the trial.

The affected XBLA games appear to be limited to SNK titles, with Garou: Mark of the Wolves, The King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match, Metal Slug 3, Metal Slug XX, and Samurai Shodown 2 reported as booting their full versions.

We suspect this'll be patched double-time, but it's certainly an odd one - and it's made odder by the fact that this glitch also works through the Modern Warfare 2 downloadable demo.
