Online retailer Amazon.com is well-known for offering just anything and everything for sale through its extensive Web-based store: now, the company is propelling itself into the world of Xbox Live games with the launch of its Xbox Live Store beta, enabling customers to purchase (or make gifts of) Microsoft Points cards, Xbox Live subscription cards, and digital access codes for downloading Xbox Live games. Available titles include favorites like Castle Crashers and Braid, and the move makes Amazon the first retailer outside the Microsoft ecosystem to offer downloadable Xbox Live games for sale.
