As promised RoboBlitz has just hit the Xbox Live Marketplace. It is the first Live Arcade game that makes use of the famous Unreal 3 Engine and still isn't larger than 50 MB!
The game is developed by Naked Sky and costs 1200 Microsoft Points. More expensive than most Arcade games, but RoboBlitz is really one of a kind. The demo is free so check it out!
Carlos writes "I reckon it’s safe to say that no Xbox 360 title arriving on Xbox One via Backwards Compatibility now will be quite as anticipated as that of last week’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, but that doesn’t mean there aren't still hundreds of cracking titles that we’d like to see make their way onto the scheme. The latest batch of arrivals brings five new games across to Xbox One, none of which have really been at the top of the wish list for many players. But are there a few gems in there you should be returning to?"
3D mini golf was good but I was never very skillfull at it, maybe I will jump back to it.
I was actually quite good at it. played online against my nieces and nephews. Beat the crap out of them. The father came to the rescue and I slayed him too. I learned the physics, and got quite good at banking shots. I actually had a lot of arcade games and I am happy to have them back.
With snowfall either hitting portions of the U.S. or set to hit it within the next day, the latest Indie Royale bundle has quite a fitting name. If you're expecting to be snowed in, you might be comforted to know that for the current minimum of about $5, you can get Resonance, Hinterland, RoboBlitz, StarDrone, Project Aftermath, and Robot Riot.
DIYGamer: Digital scarcity is an interesting concept. There should be no logical limit on how many times you can copy a file or generate a key, some places seem to just run out of stock anyway. That’s a deliberate decision on part of the Indie Gala managers for this pay-what-you-want (kinda) sale, as rather than have a time limit, this particular sale will end with 50,000 bundles sold. In addition, there’s three different bundles available here, offering 3, 5 or 11 games respectively. Oh, and like the enormously successful Humble Bundles, a chunk of the takings goes to charity. Lots of choices. Hit the break for a quick run-down of what each bundle and game offers.
This goes to show that soze is not the most important aspect for games. @ < 64mb this looks great.
I'm downloadin it right now, it should be sick!
Gotta say it:
"Thank God for BluRay! I don't know how any console can possibly manage with under 22Gigs of space on a disc!"
[Unreal Engine 3 in <50MB? Wow. This game should win a technical accomplishment award for that alone.]
How about we remove the 50MB requirement and start making a damn price requirement for the ARCADE titles! This game is 15 bux!!!
I am all for some innovation, and I think the latest releases for arcade have been original and fun, but 15 bux???
All arcade titles should cost a max of 800 points (10 bux). I mean look at the wii virtual console, you are getting FULL games for cheaper than this title.
