Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged Vol. 1 is a retail package of six Xbox Live Arcade games and three demos[1]. The compilation carries an MSRP of $39.99, which is cheaper than it would cost to download the games separately. The disc also includes a code for a one month trial of Xbox Live Gold.

The disc works by inserting it into the system just like any other game. However, rather than directly launching any of the titles, it adds nine items to the Xbox Live Arcade menu with a small disc icon next to each name.
