Ieder jaar is er de Xbox Live Summer of Arcade, en dan dropt Microsoft iedere week een 1200 Microsoft Points kostende top game online. Zoals altijd zal ik hier na afloop een review over schrijven, opvallend is dat er dit jaar ook een Kinect titel bij zit die de naam Fruit Ninja Kinect heeft. Zoals de titel al doet vermoeden ben je een ninja die fruit afslacht. De Xbox Live Summer of Arcade zal vanaf 21 juli van start gaan.
