The schedule primarily consists of downloadable content, including the upcoming "Noble Map Pack" for Halo: Reach, Crackdown 2's "Deluge Pack," and "Joe's Adventures" for Mafia 2.

Also appearing on the schedule are two new Xbox Live Arcade releases, Alien Breed 3: Descent on November 17 and Crazy Taxi on November 30. During the week of November 22, the Xbox Live Marketplace will offer a 50$ discount on the Hasbro Family Game Night titles available on XBLA.

Unsurprisingly, the episode-formatted thriller Alan Wake is coming to the Games on Demand platform. The game was expected to appear at some point, as Microsoft revealed a holiday console bundle that included a code to download the entire game from Xbox Live.

During the Thanksgiving weekend, Microsoft is offering Xbox Live Gold features to non-subscribers for free. The promotion runs from November 25 at 12pm ET until November 29 at 12pm ET.
