Xbox Live Marketplace - Sleepy New Year, the Zune bug and a few late presents

| No Comments
This is one of the slowest weeks for Xbox 360 downloads in recent memory, but better than the PS3 no show (they apparently took the week off). Then again, Microsofties were apparently in the office anyway to fix the Zune leap year bug. It's been patched, so the good news is that if you're still using that Zune 30 in 2012, your New Year's Eve party will have music!

At least there were a few late presents (freebies) on Xbox Live Marketplace for 360 owners, including a Lara Croft wetsuit pack:

  • Arcade: Merv Griffin's Crosswords ($10)
  • Demo: Lord of the Rings: Conquest multiplayer
  • Tomb Raider: Underworld Wetsuit and Classic costume packs (both free)
  • DDR Universe 3 two present songs (free) and another for purchase ($1.25)
