This weeks game is apparently Aegis Wing and will set you back a cool 0 Points.

Microsoft today revealed via a hastily removed press release on it?s Gamerscore blog that Aegis Wing will be making it?s way to XBLA this wednesday for a cool 0 Microsoft Points (for a limited time anyway).

Aegis Wing is one of those old school side scrolling shmups that all you hardcore gamers love because they are just SO GOD DAMN HARD and stuff.

So remember, Aegis Wing, XBLA, This Wednesday. FOR FREE.

Aegis Wing is out and I can confirm that it can be downloaded here in the UK if you use a US account. It's almost like they did it deliberately seeing as how they can restrict these things properly now.

Whatever the reason, it's well worth the effort. I just played through the game on normal mode with 3 other people in co-op and it's a lot of fun. Single player is basically 4x as hard though because you don't have the backup.

you're right, it is sad. makes one wonder what the stuff we're playing now will look like to the grandkids!

also, i'd like to say Aero Wing is a pretty awesome and addictive! i'd like to thank MS for putting it out there for us, it's mighty kind of them and the sort of trust-building, community-constructing gesture we hopefully will be seeing more of in the future. it came just in time as my frustration with some of their corporate mentality lately was building up.

    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By AndrewSteel · Posted

      Not such a great deal, Ultimate, which gives you full 5080 features is $181.99 CAD per month, that's $2183.88 per year, I can buy the 5080 for $1809.99 CAD, then it goes up to $279.99 per month after the first billing cycle. Typical cloud rental, costs more than buying the hardware.

      Wow, spoken like a true blind hater, you don't even provide arguments. Please, go check my comment above to @seacaptain and you'll find out why what you say doesn't make sense in this context...
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Get used to this, with AI tooling now uncovering new vulns and getting them exploitable far faster than has ever been possible before software is going to need to be updated far more frequently. Back in the day it may take reseachers weeks or months to do what AI can now do in hours. Once its a threat is discovered it's weaponsized far more quickly, meaning you simply can't be waiting 2, 3, 4 weeks to deploy a patch, it needs to be patched immediately. Going to be interesting handling this in the enterprise space where traditionally patching has been steady, but very staged (and rightly so up until now), that is going to have to change.

      You don't need to "close all browser sessions constantly" or wait for updates to install. The updates download in the background while you use the browser, without interrupting you, they install automatically the next time you launch the app. And they install very fast (depending on your storage speeds, of course), you have to wait at most 2-3 extra seconds, if any. Seems like you haven't used Edge in a loooooooong time...
