Not much time now until 2010 is distant memory, and you’re staring down the barrel of early 2011′s absurd amount of new releases. But in the mean time, holiday shopping season is in full effect, and Xbox LIVE Marketplace is adding and discounting a ton of new content this month that will make perfect gifts.

Over the next few weeks look out for Alien Breed 3 and Crazy Taxi on XBLA; Hasbro Family Game Night titles on the cheap; Alan Wake goes digital (also in the new Xbox 360 S hardware bundle); and a slew of new add-ons for Crackdown 2, Halo: Reach, Mafia II and more. As well, Microsoft is kicking off a free Gold weekend from November 25th through November 29th which will let all you Xbox LIVE Free members use Netflix, ESPN3, Facebook, Twitter and multiplayer with your visiting families.
