Black Friday on Xbox Live

If you’re a resident of the US, you’ll be well aware of the tradition known as Black Friday, where stores run sales all across the country, and the consumers head out en-masse to take advantage. It looks like the Xbox Live Marketplace is joining in on the tradition this year as well.

If you live in the US and have an Xbox Live Gold Membership, you will be able to take advantage of reduced prices over the weekend on a healthy range of Xbox Live Marketplace content.

The sale covers a decent number of items, and includes reduced on for quality Xbox Live Arcade games like Rez HD, reduced prices on premium themes, and cheaper downloadable add-ons for games such as Crackdown, Rock Band, and Forza 2.

Unfortunate, only Xbox Live Gold Membership in the USA will be able to take advantage of these sale offers; the sale itself starts tomorrow, and will last throughout the whole weekend.

Hit the cut for the full list of reduced prices.
