Halo Wars And Dead Rising Are On Demand

Something old and something comparably new join the Xbox 360 Games on Demand lineup today, with Dead Rising and Halo Wars now available in convenient downloadable form.

I’ve played my fill of Dead Rising since its 2006 release, so I probably won’t be download it for $US19.99 via Games on Demand.

Halo Wars, on the other hand, is a game I’ve had in my hand many times over the past few years, only to put it down before making it to the cash register. Perhaps I’ll find pushing a button much easier than handing over my credit card.

Or maybe I’ll just sit there at the purchase screen, hemming and hawing over spending $US30 on a real-time strategy game based on a first-person shooter series I’m not particularly fond of, until I eventually B button my way out of the purchase. At least I can do it from the comfort of my couch now.

    Until hard drive space is cost effective and readily available, I will not be able to purchase any of these titles.
