Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
I am counting down the days.
I will be happy to throw down with you superfro. |
Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
Well, I have absolutely no idea how to play that sort of game, but that preview makes it very clear that they've made the game very accessable for newbies without gimping the gameplay in any way. It sure sounds like a winner, especially at 800 points and without nickle and diming over microtransactions. I'm really impressed and will probably pick it up if I understand the demo even a little bit.

ack Hori may sell Virtual On Twin Sticks for $300 if they can get enough preorders

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
Great news on Magic for $10. I was expecting $15 and was teetering on it. Now it's almost a sure purchase for me. The demo just has to suck for me to not buy it.
Has there been any news for this Wednesday, the 10th? |
Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
With Major Nelson shipped off to Iraq(!), will we actually have to wait until Wednesday to find out what comes out this week?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
Gunstar Heroes is not on SUGC.
And not having to rely on the SUGC disc for something like PSII is something to consider. |

Summer of Arcade along with TMNT, Shadow Complex, Monkey Island, Joy Ride, Trials HD, and one or two more. This was announced during E3. I think it's July this year.

XBLA deals out Magic: The Gathering on June 17 Wizards of the Coast has announced that Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers will finally release on Xbox Live Arcade this month. Specifically, the game will launch on June 17. Have no fear, Magic fans, unlike the Xbox version of Magic: The Gathering, Duels of the Planeswalkers is a straight-up card game. And, based on our time with it at PAX last year, it's a pretty good one. Unfortunately, we still don't know how much green damage the game will deal to your wallet. http://xbox.joystiq.com/2009/06/03/x...ng-on-june-17/ I have a big shoe box filled with what we affectionately called "Crack on Cardboard". I am all over this next week! |
Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
Is gunstar heroes 2 players? the info on the marketplace says it's only 1 player.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
Kotaku is saying that TMNT: Time is a timed XBLA exclusive and due out 7/22.
That gives you an upper limit on MvC2, Popcorn ;) |
Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
In addition to Sam & Max and Magic tomorrow, we're also getting Rocket Riot for 800 points: http://www.destructoid.com/rocket-ri...t-136418.phtml
http://bulk.destructoid.com/ul/136418-rocketriot.jpg THQ has announced that the Codeglue-developed Rocket Riot has cut through all of the Microsoft certification red tape and will be released on Xbox LIVE Marketplace tomrorow, June 17. Available for 800 MS Points, Rocket Riot is a “side-view shooting action” game with an 8-bit era look and feel. The game features 80 single-player missions, as well as four multiplayer modes for up to eight players online and four players local. It looks like the game has you picking up a number of “whacky” weapons likes guided rockets, dizzy missiles, and other crazy rocket-type-things. Along with the announcement, THQ accidentally sent along 12 images of the company’s logo instead of screenshots. (Seriously, check our gallery.) To get an idea of what Rocket Riot you’ll have to check out the official site, so go do that. Now. Looks promising. |

Me too. I'm not expecting it to be amazing, but I can see myself playing it for a long time.
