Trio of retro titles cleared for arrival on the Xbox 360 download service - bring on the particle effects!
Three new retro titles heading to Xbox Live Arcade have emerged this morning thanks to the very useful ESRB website which has cleared them for arrival on Microsoft's box.
Asteroids, Missile Command and Tempest are all listed for the download service, the first being exciting because we can't wait to see what kind of particle effects can be shoe-horned in, the second because we were still hammering it in San Francisco bar at GDC and the third... well, is Tempest.
Obviously there's no word on pricing or release dates yet, but will let you know as soon as we get any concrete details.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
Interview with Stephen Russell, Actor for (Nick Valentine, Codsworth, My Handy) in Fallout 4 which is a vast open world role playing game set in the apocalyptic wastes of Boston, the Commonwealth. The career goes further with other Bethesda games from Starfield to Prey to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Asteroids... AND Tempest? AND Missile Command?
Nice.
ENOUGHT WITH THESE B.S. ARCADE TITLES, GIVES US SOME REAL ARCADE TITLES. THESE GAMES ARENT GOOD ENOUGH FOR 400 AND 800 MS POINTS :/
But these games are classics. I know I spent more than my fare share of MS points worth of quarters back in the day.
Man I respect your opinion but I have to disagree. I played the hell out of all three when I was a kid and I'm very much looking forward to these, particularly missile command. Just out of curiosity, which games would you like to see come out for XBLA? Cheers!
People talks like XBLA is like the holy grail for the online gaming service, but seriously look at this. It just like any other PSN and Nintendo VC services. Is this what you xbot really proud at?? Get PS3 or Wii, that's another world out there you haven't tasted yet.
