Your Xbox Live Arcade and Games on Demand budgeting for February can begin, thanks to Microsoft’s schedule for the month’s new digital releases and deals, including a more affordable version of Battlefield 1943 for Xbox Live Arcade.
A handful of new games are also planned for “on demand” releases, including Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5, and Beautiful Katamari plus Halo Wars and Viva Piñata: Party Animals for our international friends. There are even Resident Evil 5 Xbox Avatar goodies coming, which I pray means an Avatar version of Chris Redfield’s new post-apocalyptic leather daddy outfit.
Here’s how Microsoft sees February shaking out.

What about the PC version of 1943? Been hanging for it since late last year. Bad company 2 comes out in march, so they had better hurry up, or there will be no point. I still think a re-make of 1942 would be a good filler for the gap. Anybody heard anything?

I might actually get Halo Wars now but most likely not cause the price will be something like $49.95
But def going to get Battlefield now, i cannot believe i’ve gone this long and I haven’t bought it yet.
They’ve had some good deals as of late.
