Bliss and Brains All Over XBLA

It seems the Xbox Live Arcade is back on track with the usual double-game release this week with both Brain Challenge and Bliss Island clocking in at 800 Space Bucks, or 10 real-life currency.
Unfortunately, the initial impression was that Bliss Island, a cutesy flower-powered puzzler, would be launched at just 400 MS Points. Major Nelson has “brought it to [the team's] attention”, but whether that means it’s a glitch in the system or an error on his part is yet to be seen.
If the 25 single/multiplayer puzzles aren’t bliss enough for you, perhaps super-hot doctors analyzing your brain is a little more up your alley. Brain Challenge - also 800 Points - is a mind-racking puzzler in the vein of Brain Age complete with daily puzzles and statistical upgrades.
This week is for smarty-pants only, I guess. Enjoy it regardless, but hold off on the Bliss Island purchase at the potential for a price cut later today.
