Today, Xbox Live unveils Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays, a new program that will provide a regular launch schedule of new Xbox Live Arcade games for gamers worldwide. Starting today, Xbox Live Arcade games will now go live worldwide on Wednesdays at 0800 GMT (Midnight Pacific) – hitting gamers around the world all on the same day.

Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays kicks off with a blockbuster summer schedule of eagerly anticipated retro titles. Gamers looking for a blast from the past can download ‘Frogger’ – the beloved Konami classic arcade title – today on Xbox Live Arcade. Other Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays titles debuting in the coming weeks include ‘Cloning Clyde’, ‘Street Fighter II’ Hyper Fighting,’ ‘Galaga’ and ‘Pac-Man.’ To date, Xbox 360 gamers have downloaded more than 5 million Xbox Live Arcade games and the release schedule sizzles all summer long, with the following titles arriving on Xbox Live Arcade:

Ø July 12 – Frogger

Ø July 19 – Cloning Clyde

Ø July 26 – Galaga

Ø August 2 – Street Fighter II’ Hyper Fighting

Ø August 9 – Pac-Man



hopefully this ends up being accurate, because i can't wait for frogger, galaga, street fighter, or pac man smile.gif

I am headed down to the bay area to attend the ‘The Summer of Xbox Live Arcade’ kick off party tonight. Congratulations to everyone that won tickets from my show Sunday. I actually snagged a few extra pairs, so I ended up making a few more people happy then originally anticipated. Do you want to go? Head over to the PR blog, and John has some extra tickets available on a first come, first serve basis…tell ‘em Major sent ya! He also has a copy of the invite that went out that has more information  about the event. No..it does not say where the party is…John will tell you the secret party location if you score some tickets.

See you tonight!


so while i'm taking a wait and see approach, i do tend to think this ones real smile.gif
