The Xbox 360 maker today announced its Holiday Deal of the Week program. The initiative will run through December and will see Xbox Live Gold members getting a discount on a different online marketplace item each week. The cut rate for new items will be announced on Xbox Live director of programming Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb's blog on Mondays, will go into effect on Tuesday, and will expire after a week.
Kicking off the program, Microsoft will offer the Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack for 400 points ($5), a $2.50 savings. The map pack adds three new battlegrounds to Bungie's acclaimed shooter: Ghost Town, Blackout, and Lockout. For more on the game, check out GameSpot's previous coverage.
