hell yes! this was one of the most amazing games i've ever played. it was on 3do and damn it kicked all kinds of ass. i even bought the maps of death or whatever they were called. amazing, amazing game. and ya, it would rock on XBLA.
also, i've always wanted Karate Champ. with dual analog sticks, it only makes sense.
lastly, I want Ikari Warriors.
edit: ah hell, who am I kidding; I also want...
NHL 94 [Genesis version]
Road Rash [3do version]
Need for Speed [3do version]
Rock-N-Roll Racing
Slam 'N Jam 95 [3do version]
Gunsmoke [old Capcom arcade game]
Rastan [arcade]
Super Sprint [arcade, 4 player racer]
The Horde
Diablo [PC]
Quake II [PC]
and if you're wondering why I keep saying "3do version" it's for a real reason, it is absolutely the best version of all those games, and by a large margin in some cases [for instance, the playstation Need for Speed absolutely sucked ASS by comparison].
So, Lumines Live! is officially coming out tomorrow.
Japan's Xbox Live blog says so.
BUT!
It says it's coming out in Europe and the US, but content for Japan's gamers is still being worked out... WTF!? Guess I'll be grabbing this with my UK account. In the meantime, a big иди на хуй to whoever is making these retarded decisions.

Well, it does say that content is being adjusted for Japanese gamers, so it probably means a different basic tracklist at the very least. Or maybe they just figured out that like all other Q games, it's not going to sell in Japan at all, so why release it! :lol

I didn't actually think there were any artist skins in the basic pack... I thought it was all the "vanilla" skins.
If I were to speculate about this problem, I would say it's Bandai being twats. They may hold the rights for Lumines in Japan, or something, and they're just not budging for this XBLA version. It certainly doesn't help when that blog says nothing about the issue.
This is Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays for Japan gamers.

So Lumines Live is confirmed for Wed? I almost don't believe it.
Its gonna be the second 1200 point game available, only this time there will be another chunk of the game to pay for right away. Not sure how much that'll be. It sucks and it'll definetly be a hard decision to get it. I don't want to start seeing more and more 1200 point games.

This reminds me. I'd give my left testicle for Sega to put their awesome arcade racers on XBLA. Daytona USA 1 and 2, Sega Super GT, Virtua Racing... I'd die a happy man, especially if those games have Live multiplayer.Angelus said:How much is Lumines gonna cost us? No more than 5-10 bucks I hope.
Btw-Sega need to bring this game to Live and fast...

That would be great if Sega can get the licensing issues for the cars sorted out. They already have the Ferrari license, and I'm assuming they can get the licenses for the McLaren F1 and Dodge Viper without a problem, but the Porsche 911 might be a problem...Ned Flanders said:

Hey I'd have the knife ready for you to contribute that left nut for these games.:lol
But yeah I can only imagine their games showing up on XBox Live....someday.
Sega Touring car,Manx TT,Indy 500,Super Hang On,Harley Davidson............
I think I better stop before I get all emotional here.:/ These games better show up on Live eventually.

I do plan on writing a large letter to Sega, mainly explaining why Virtua Fighter 5 should be on the X360 (since it's the only PS3 game I'm mildly interested in), but I'm also thinking about listing some great games that should be on XBLA. I mean, if the X360 can't get VF5, I'll be happy with one of the older games in the series, or maybe some Fighting Vipers love...Angelus said:

Sounds cool,I just hope they listen to you. I would do the same but I have a feeling that theyre too caught up in marketing Sonic nowdays to listen to a group of fans set them in the right direction.
**** just release a few racing anthologies over Live and see how they sell over Live.

Thanks for the encouragement. They always reply to my letters, so that should be encouraging. I'll probably ask for some suggestions on what to put into it, but that's for another thread, and I don't have that ability yet.Angelus said:
Actually, it was $40 on the PSP.Schafer said:

well at least the microtransaction part of this game doesn't seem too bad. though it could always be cheaper. at least they're not gimping us on the features but instead just an strap-on for additional skins. not too shabby. glad i got my atm/check card hooked up to the XBL system. 1-click and it's mine.

From what I hear, EA's exclusivity deal with NASCAR expires next year, and I'm confident that NASCAR won't renew their exclusivity deal with EA, considering the turds EA released with the license.Fatghost said:
ics dont work "insert AD reference"
See I think Lumines Live could be worth the money, but I also don't want to encourage other companies charging 1200 points for games.GDJustin said:I'm on the fence regarding Lumines Live. On the one hand... I want it. On the other hand, I'll have to buy more points to get it. And I was trying to put off doing so for a little longer
