14 DAY TRIAL // I'll say... this week was the bomb for Xboxers: old, cheap titles have been made even cheaper, 2K Games rolled out 'The Darkness' demo, demos of 'NASCAR 08' and 'All-Pro Football 2K8' are also up on XBL Marketplace as of this week, what better time to own a 360 if not now? As it turns out, Atari has announced that Microsoft's service made room for yet another downloadable: Test Drive Collection Volume 5 featuring all new content, is now up on XBL Marketplace.
According to the official report, Test Drive Collection Volume 5 downloadable car pack is available now on Xbox Live Marketplace for Test Drive Unlimited, the ultimate automotive and lifestyle gaming experience for the Xbox 360.
"Since launch last year, we've been 100% committed to regularly bringing brilliant new content to fans to enrich the Test Drive Unlimited experience and give new and existing fans great reasons to keep the pedal to the metal," said Mathias Hautefort, Executive Vice President of publishing and production, Atari. "This is the fifth instalment of brand new vehicles for Test Drive Unlimited, and makes this already essential game even more of a must-have for any self-respecting racing fan."
