I'm once again annoyed with the xbl arcade.
It's worth $6.95(?) on iTunes.
It was given away free with preorders of Orange Box.
and now they charge $13.20 for it and add a few new features.

the "free" version (Peggle Extreme) given away with Orange Box wasn't the full game, but merely an Orange Box themed "demo" of the full thing.

the full game on Steam was $15 when i bought it (pretty much straight after i got Peggle Extreme), though it could very well have come down since then.

it is, however, EASILY worth 800 points.
i'll probably buy it again.

YES! This had made my week.

I bought this for my iPod and played it to death, clearing every single challenge etc.

I'll race you all to 200.

huh?

800 points is the standard price for most "proper" games on xbla - unless you count **** emulated megadrive titles. and given that this is a bundle of all the levels from all the various releases thus far, and adds madness like online multiplayer - this is a day one no-brainer.
