Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

The Summer Of The Arcade II starts Wednesday, I think. I wonder what we're getting first...

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Oh shit, I think you just hurt SSF2THD's chances in my house :lol:

Here's the announced SoA2 list:

* 'Splosion Man
* Shadow Complex
* TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-shelled
* Marvel Vs. Capcom 2
* Monkey Island Special Edition
* Trials HD

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

having never played Magic a day in my life, i thought i was doing good the first couple of days i had the game -- i was up to the ninth guy in the campaign. Last night he slaughtered me over and over --- so i said "well, i will go back and play the first guy in the campaign" -- he tore me up too. I guess i was just having some bad luck last night.

i did try to play my first online match, but the guy got frustrated with the cards he was being dealt and quit after ten minutes.

am i at a disadvantage online not having all of the extra cards unlocked?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I can say that dropping the difficulty down does help. I got to through the 14th guy on "Archmage", but #15 was about impossible. I dropped it down to "Mage" and destroyed him and the final guy in one shot each.

There were a few plays they made that I said "Really?" out loud.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

* 'Splosion Man I might get this, depending on the demo

* Shadow Complex I am SO getting this!

* TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-shelled meh.

* Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 getting it on PSN/PS3

* Monkey Island Special Edition doubt it

* Trials HD don't know what this is

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Sounds good, I'll probably get Shadow Complex, TMNT (woot!), MvC2 (woot woot!), Monkey Island SE (Hellll yeah.)

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Shadow Complex and Monkey Island for sure for me. Possibly Turtles, might have to check the demo first.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Shadow Complex, TMNT and Monkey Island are must buys and maybe Trials. It had some interest at E3 from some of the game journalists.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

On his podcast, Major said it was:

Garou (Fatal Fury): Mark of the Wolves
Droplets
Sorry! Sliders

No sign or mention of Summer of Arcade.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

How can you meh Turtles in Time?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

How come that link shows it for 1200 still?

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

See here:

As for me, definitely Shadow Complex, probably Monkey Island, and maybe for 'Splosion Man depending on whether the demo grabs me.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

To show 800 points, you have to be signed in and a Gold member (and not have already purchsed it).

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I have the PC version of Trials (via Steam) and it is a super fun physics-based dirtbike platformer, if that makes any sense. :lol:

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I do hope Shadow Complex is successful, I love me some 2D action platformers.

though I do suppose it's a bit much to hope for a BC:R version of Blaster Master.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

oh right, need to login...duh. Now it's queued up for when I come home.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

I'm a little to old to have ever been a Turtles fan, and beat 'em ups (especially those focused more on multiple players, as I have no video-game playing friends) mostly bore me to tears.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

We'll be your friends.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Don't forget about Battlefield 1942 as well.

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

And JoyRide!

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Pretty sure Battlefield is coming this week, as well as Garou: Mark of the Wolves. That would mean they both precede the "Summer of Arcade".

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Are you as sure of that as you were of the RB2 update hitting during E3? ;)

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Yes.. More than that. :)

Re: XBLA Thread Part thrizzee (3)
 

Sorry to burst your bubble. Of course, they may surprise us so I hope you and Decker are right and SoA starts this week.
