We've all longed for Puzzle Quest to come to XBLA. It was just so much fun on the PSP and DS, which many of us already own. So it appears yesterday at around 80MB, a small file, other than the price! Puzzle Quest for XBLA has the rather whopping price tag of 1200points! That's around $20AUD, €16EUR and $17USD for a file of 80meg. Now we know it isn't all about the file size, this is a great game, but we were expecting it to be 800 or 900.
Here's hoping game prices on XBLA don't start to sneak up in price. The fun of XBLA was that you could replay old favorites and not have to pay through the nose for them, especially as some people already had / have the games on retro formats. Who wants to pay a fortune for what is for some, a second copy of the game they paid $70 for in the high street. All up we've now paid $90 for Puzzle Quest. Yeah I know, we didn't HAVE to buy it again, but we wanted to, so really yeah, you can argue the fault isn't with MS dropping a 1200 point 80 meg file on XBLA, but with the likability of this game over willpower to stop yourself lol.

I'm p*ssed! 1200 points! Come on!!! I think I paid like 400 points for Track & Field.
OK so I bought it! It was expensive, but as I've played it so much I'll take back my p*ssedness. Do you guys reply to comments?
