Handful Of New Things In The Xbla
« on: February 17, 2006, 12:41:00 AM »

Bunch of D/L content for Crystal Quest
Bejeweled Theme
Hexic (finally available for those who lost it)
And maybe something new for Outpost.




I really cant wait for an explosion of xbl arcade games. I just dont see any reason why we dont see hardly any actual classics yet.



:::edit::: Holy Crap. Extreme mode for Crystal Quest is definently more extreme. Max difficulty of course. Using exteme mode i got the Apocalypse achievement on the first level.

I agree about the Xtreme mode... that shit should be free.   mad.gif  It's obvious that they just conveniently left out a harder difficulty so they could sell it later.  I can understand the art being left out, but the difficulty?  Ugh.

I hope that's not a continuing trend in games.  To leave stuff out just to sell it later.  That was one of my few fears with this Microtransactions crap.  They shoulda just made the game harder... Itagaki style!  Haha.

no, but thats a fucking stupid idea anyway... who would spend actual money on something like that? they need to have a pepsi cap points giveaway or something: any other option than just outright paying for things...

Im just going to say that I dont really mind spending a few bucks here and there for little crap. I can totally see the arguement Its just to me if its sub 10$ I dont really care anymore. After so many years of shit like this with my cell phone bill, rent and utilities, shit like a 3$ download doesnt even phase me anymore.


And I wouldnt be surprised if we see the 1st implimentation of the User Made D/L Content in the new FarCry games.




Im still waiting for the explosion of xbl games. We need Space Invaders, Tetris, Pacman (for you gc), Contra, MG1. Where are all the classics? Dont get me wrong I love these new brew games, but I truly want the classics on the 360.

Is Hexic actually up for download?  It appears to only be a Hexic theme and not the actual game.

Not the game just a theme, you are correct sir!
