The "Gaming-On-Demand" service for the XBOX 360, which will start off with 21 exciting games, is set to be here by August 11th (via a dashboard update).

The 21 games are as follows:

• Assassin's Creed (Ubisoft)
• BioShock (2K Games)
• Burnout Paradise (EA)
• Call of Duty 2 (Activision)
• Dance Dance Revolution Universe (Konami)
• Fight Night Round 3 (EA)
• Kameo: Elements of Power (Microsoft Game Studios)
• Karaoke Revolution American Idol Encore (Konami)
• LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga (LucasArts)
• Mass Effect (Microsoft Game Studios)
• Meet The Robinsons (Disney)
• MX vs. ATV Untamed (THQ)
• Need for Speed Carbon (EA)
• Need for Speed: Most Wanted (EA)
• Perfect Dark Zero (Microsoft Game Studios)
• Prey (2K Games)
• Rainbow Six Vegas (Ubisoft)
• Ridge Racer 6 (Namco)
• Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis (Rockstar Games)
• Sonic the Hedgehog (SEGA)
• Test Drive: Unlimited (Atari)
• The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2K Games/Bethesda Softworks)
• Viva Piñata (Microsoft Game Studios)
• Viva Piñata 2: Trouble in Paradise (Microsoft Game Studios)

Microsoft has been very vague in what each title will cost but, has said it will range between $20 - $30.  Your not only paying for the games, you are also paying for the "convenience" factor as well.

What I mean is some games will list for $29.99 to purchase, yet you can go to your local gaming store (ie. GameStop) and buy a physical copy for $19.99.  So before you buy the digital version, it may be worth your time to check pricing at your local store(s), as it could definitely be cheaper.
