According to the article, this is due to the fact that people were complaining about the steep pricing of the "Summer of Arcade" titles. Geez, I wonder if there was any complaining about the pricing during last years' summer releases for XBLA........

Meh. I have no problem with Microsoft's pricing policies. Personally, I'm glad to see they're still making gobs of money in this recession.

Well, considering how much their "Summer of Arcade" titles suck...

MS creates a huge campaign for 5 XBLA games? That's hardly impressive. I remember when they used to get about one game a WEEK, not one a month.

Their Summer of Arcade games are pretty solid titles. You get the remake of the TMNT arcade game which is very popular. 'Splosion Man looks like one of the better platformers to come out in a long time and seems very innovative. Shadow Complex looks like another great action/platformer. Pretty solid lineup for downloadable games
