This Week on Xbox Live [XBLA and DotW]

Well, this wasn't quite how we wanted to kick off the New Year, with discount Avatar items and not a lot else, but that's the first Deal of the Week for 2011, for better or worse. And there's quite a mixture of different items, with seemingly no common theme tying them together. Go figure.

So, a doctor outfit rubs shoulders with a spring bunny outfit, while the only two game-related items are Executioner duds from Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and a mic with stand from Band Hero. One can only assume that they're not selling too well. Why not combine the two, just for a laugh? No? Okay then.

Here's the full list of Deal of the Week Avatar items now available:

    * Doctor Outfit (male/female) - Was: 240 MSP Now: 120 MSP
    * Police Officer #2 (male/female) - Was: 240 MSP Now: 120 MSP
    * Band Hero Mic w/Stand Prop - Was: 240 MSP Now: 120 MSP
    * Black Tuxedo (m) - Was: 240 MSP Now: 120 MSP
    * Valentine Wedding Dress (f) - Was: 240 MSP Now: 120 MSP
    * AC Brotherhood - The Executioner Outfit (male/female) - Was: 400 MSP Now: 240 MSP
    * International Collection - Kilt (m) - Was: 160 MSP Now: 80 MSP
    * International Collection - Flamenco Dress (f) - Was: 160 MSP Now: 80 MSP
    * Spring - Bunny Outfit (male/female) - Was: 240 MSP Now: 120 MSP

(Prices apply until January 10th)

Also, hitting the Xbox Live Arcade this week, following the arrival of MicroBot for 800 Microsoft Points last week, is cutesy puzzler, ilomilo, which has actually been available for ages if you knew where to look. You'll be able to pick it up on Wednesday, 5th January for 800 Microsoft Points, officially.

HERE YOU GO LUKE, WORST DotW EVER!!!

Sega Sale is live.

PLUS!  The prices are cheaper than advertised.  Most (if not all) of the 240 MSP games are actually 200 MSP.  Virtual On is only 600 MSP, instead of 800.

Be sure to check the price before confirming your purchase.  And it's probably a good idea to hurry and buy what you want now in case the lower prices are a mistake.

What is this "Peggle deluxe" is that an add on or the game you guys have been playing?

[nCogNeato]

* Not listed on the Sega Sale list, Sonic & Knuckles is only 120 MSP at this moment.  Not sure if it's part of the sale, or just a fluke.  Grab it while you can.

It's the same things as "Peggle".

"Peggle Deluxe" is just what some sources refer to it.  I think it's the official name of the current version of the game (with title updates).
