After a couple of so-so weeks, we finally get a pair of great games worth checking out on Xbox Live Arcade. Sonic CD, the classic Sega CD iteration starring Sega’s blue blur, finally speeds onto Xbox Live. Besides the awesome soundtrack and retro Sonic gameplay, Sega is offering the game for only 400 Microsoft points.
Joe Danger Special Edition is a much expanded version of the PlayStation Network title, and if you couldn’t tell from our review, we liked it. Quite a bit.
Read on for all the details of this week’s update.
