XBL This Weeks Deals of the Week & New releases (wc 10/10/11)

[Spectral Jester]

This week you can get your hands on Treasure's fondly remember SEGA Saturn classic, the 2D side-scrolling, multi-stranded slash 'em up, Guardian Heroes. Giving you the opportunity to relive those halcyon days of 1996, Guardian Heroes on XBLA is all remastered in HD and stuff, with a host of new modes to keep you happy too. Not bad for 800 Microsoft Points.

 

Movie tie-in Real Steel also arrives on the Xbox Live Arcade this week, bringing the future sport of robot boxing to consoles. Will you be able to eclipse Hugh Jackman as the greatest pro robot boxing trainer-type person? And is Real Steel a real steal at 800 MSP? We honestly don't know.

 

If that doesn't tickle your fancy, then there's some old stuff to contemplate as part of a shadowy Deal of the Week, which sees Epic's Shadow Complex slashed to half price, Saints Row 2 DLC discounted and Perfect Dark snipped to a mere 400 Microsoft Points. There's more where that came from too. Take a look at the list below for more:
