    To answer your original question.

    No it is not possible to download free arcade games without purchasing Microsoft points which you can buy in any good game retailer for around €22 or so.

    There is an odd occasion when there will be the odd few games you can download for free. For example Fable 2 episode 1 is avalable for free download.

    Generally arcade games will cost you around 800 or so points depending on the game.

    Does that answer your question.

    Oh and if you don't want to pay for MS points then there's plenty of arcade games on the interweb.

    You can get MS points from that baloon throwing game? And yes the free driving game coming out is called Joy Ride. I think it's out next month. OP theres only 2 free arcade games ATM, Dash of destruction and TotemBall (TotemBall requires the camera to play)
