Gamerscore Blog has released a press release that Xbox Live Marketplace Video Store will be overstuffed with exclusive content in March.
Not only will U.S. Xbox LIVE members have access to great HD content this month, but they will also be able to download content exclusive to Xbox LIVE, including a free episode of Lewis Black: Root of All Evil on Comedy Central. The premier episode of comedian Lewis Black’s new show will be free to all Xbox LIVE members from March 13- March 20.
Xbox LIVE has the exclusive content people want. The ever popular television comedy series Robot Chicken: Star Wars (created and directed by Seth Green) will be made available exclusively to Xbox LIVE members on March 4, two months before the DVD is available in stores this coming May. Anime fans will be able to download Afro Samurai starring Samuel L. Jackson – only available in HD on the Xbox LIVE service. In addition, new episodes of South Park will arrive on the service the week of March 10.
They also bragged that monthly sales are up more than 70% since September, 2007 and doubling month over month. Do you download from the Video Store? It was handy when I missed the pilot of Terminator: The Sarah Connors Chronicles, which was free.
