Who watches the Watchmen?

Greetings, everyone.

Been a while, um? Tonight begins our second challenge over at www.360voice.com, so I thought I'd pop in and just chat about the gaming deal of the week going on over at Best Buy right now.

See, whenever you buy an XBox 360 console or anything related to XBox Live (games are excluded unfortunately), you receive a voucher for 2 free tickets to see The Watchmen film in either standard or IMAX theaters. Why I think this is so impressive is because The Watchmen: The End is Nigh is laughing on XBox Live this Wednesday for 1600 Microsoft Points. The game is roughly 8 hours in length with 6 chapters set as a prequel to the movie, playing as Nite-Owl and Rorsach in their early days as heroes during the 1960's.

Still, 1600 points might seem a bit steep for a super-hero beat-em-up, but think of it this way: you are buying the game and getting to see the movie or you're buying 2 tickets to the movie and getting the game for free. Either way, even if the game is only mediocre at best, you get a good 2 and a half hours at the theater.

That is all, folks. Happy gaming!
