Wait, you mean you didn't get these? They released them along the one with Halo 3 and Fable II a year or two ago.

Of course it's the Xbox Arcade that gets the Rare bundle, Microsoft views them as such a budget title company anymore, it's sad.

I don't think it's the price of the games, but rather the demographic. These titles will appeal more to the people they are trying to sell the Arcade bundle to, which is casual gamers, parents, and younger players. If Microsoft didn't feel they were good, quality games, I don't think they would include them with their console -- these games will potentially be the player's first experience with the console, so they are not going to include games that they don't feel would be worthy of that.

Also, the Arcade bundle is typically the one to include games, so if any bundle is getting any type of free game, it's almost always going to be the Arcade bundle.

Their reasoning is probably that if people like the first one they will go and buy the second, but not the other way around. ;)

I actually enjoyed both of those way more than I did N&B. Infinitely better games IMHO.

LIJ was the first Lego game I had played since the first Star Wars one, and KFP reminded me of the old N64 style platformers.
