Xbox LIVE Kicks Off Week Of Thanksgiving Sales


Microsoft has announced a week of Xbox LIVE deals to coincide with Thanksgiving week (wait, it's a week now?) here in the US.

Running from now until Monday 29 November, various game add-ons and arcade titles can be grabbed at a discount of 50% or more. So if you fancy playing either (or both) of the HD Monkey Island remakes, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter or Portal, now might be a good time to take the plunge.

Alan Wake DLC "The Signal" and a few Rock Band packs (Nirvana and Lady Gaga) can also be picked up for less cash than usual.

More savings are promised on 26 November (dubbed 'Black Friday.') You can keep an eye on all the offers at Microsoft's hub page, here.
