Here's Benjamin Birdie's list merged with Wikipedia stuff for North America, plus Bomberman and Gripshift, sorted:



53 games.

Of course, there's more in development than that.

Wait, since when was Xevious confirmed? And is Namco going to release some more obscure stuff, like Valkyrie No Desnetsu?

Probably related to that Pac-Man Championship that was announced as for why Doom II was not listed, I have no clue there.

I'm really liking this 2 XBLA games a week thing. It's about time it happened.

Yeah... and now developers have to start making sure the quality is tip top, or they're not gonna be getting the sales they would have a year ago. I already have the feeling I'm only gonna be buying 1 of this week's releases.

People should only be buying eets this week anyway. I'm sure we've all played enough freakin' pinball games to last us a lifetime.

You know what would make me happy? If arne could confirm that sega is even doing anything on xbla at all.
Click to expand...


Well, the last time we heard anything was the announcement of Sonic the Hedgehog: High Speed which seems to be in limbo at the moment.
 
I know, I still remember seeing sonic stretched and blurry on my hdtv in that montage back at.. e3 I think? The fact is XBLA and sega are a match made in heaven, sega swirl, house of the dead/typing of the dead, chu chu rocket, pso, sonic series, some rpgs, I mean come ON sega.

Well, the point is that is something Sega is doing, but you do have point yourself, maybe Sega hates effort?
 
Well no see, if sonic came out or had some kind of update, id say oh cool sega can test out xbla, but ever since sega went on nintendos VC all info on that sonic xbla title went away and they haven't been heard from since. My fear is that sega might not do anything on xbla and that sonic was canned.
 
Well i checked that list out.. and ended up playing the PC demo of War World..

Wow that game is fun. Reminds me of Mechasault... Hope it comes out soon. :D
 
Magic: The Gathering would be sick, but ohh god I hope it's not per booster pack, I doubt they could even do that since people would complain they got shit booster packs while some Joe on the internet got some OMFGPWN rares. They could just add editions say, give you access to an edition for 500 pts. And for building decks, for ranked play just limit common:uncommon:rares ratios.

That happened last week, I didn't feel either of them were worth it. Especially the golf game which felt like a rip off at 800pts. This week both games are 800, which may force some to choose between them. I think in a perfect world we'd get a 800 and a 400 game each week. Some of these 800 point games just don't have the lifespan to justify the price.

Still doesn't look too happy. :P

XBLA is looking awesome! I just wish I didn't buy the Golf game because the full version had "potential", big mistake on my part. :P

And the actual Incredible Machine is coming to XBLA sometime this year, too. I'm taking off work that day, no kiddin'. Me and the Machine are good pals from way back.

No f'ing way... I had no idea!

Day one purchase no doubt - wow.
 
As soon as the NES Mega Man games and the Genesis Sonic games start hitting, I'll never complain about anything XBLA-related again.

GripShift has never been confirmed for XBLA.

Will it appear on the platform? Only time will tell. Or it won't. Who knows.

I'm loving the PSN version. It's HUGE. So much stuff to do. But I feel robbed of achievements. Hence the XBLA interest.

Don't they normally go up at 2am PST (aka 40 min from now)?
Click to expand...

1 am usually. I saw a post that said they found them under their respective genres but as of ten minutes ago, I couldn't see them anywhere. Probably in another ten minutes or so.

:(

I wish you weren't a liar.

but seriously, I don't see them anywhere yet

I don't have access to my 360 so I don't know for sure, It was posted on Major Nelsons blog, and I think he mentioned some downloads are "rolling downloads" or something like that, where they will appear in different regions at different times.
 
I got Eets, and I'm in Japan.
It went to 90% in about 10 seconds, but took 20 mins to get the rest.

Edit: nope it's ****ed and won't load :(

That sounds really complicated...

I bet the games will magically be online when I wake up in a few hours. I'm going to try that much lazier method.
