Full Games Coming to Xbox Live DLC

Dan Tennant, GamePro

We just got the word from Sid Shuman, one of GamePro's pairs of eyes at E3, that Microsoft will be introducing full downloadable games from Xbox Live starting in August. By simply using your credit card and bypassing the whole Microsoft Points net, you'll be able to grab titles like Bioshock, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, and Civilization Revolution digitally.

Microsoft tells us that new games will be available for download every week, for prices that should compare to those of retail boxes. Those of you without a GameStop nearby: rejoice!
