Would be nice if it were true - but I smell a rat - and I think someone has dropped a huge clanger!!!

I think its the PDZ Maps thing all over again - the newsletter guys need to be talked to a bit.

Looks like Darwinia will be making its way to XBLA - heres hoping DefCon makes it way to XBLA as well.

Ohh where's the info on Darwinia? Noticed they've been signed up to Live Arcade for a while but it'll be nice to see some more info on this...

Cheers

Wow, I'm looking forward to Halo3 as much as the next man, but the amount of self love in that "making of..." trailer almost makes it unwatchable.

Oblivion update now up, just boot up the game.

Rumble Roses Double X demo now up

PDZ map pack is up

And a load of Kameo vids

Are the Kameo vids showing tips for each of the characters?

The weird thing is that I saw these yesterday evening just after I downloaded the update - I set them in the queue and left it running but when I came back later in the evening I couldn't find the downloads and they weren't listed in the marketplace either.

They were yanked due to corrupted downloads.

They're back on there now.

That would explain why I had corrupt files on the hard disk when I viewed the contents then

Haven't MS heard of QA?

A minor problem? They wouldn't play - i'd say that's a pretty major problem with a video file!!!

1200 points for Lumines Live? Ouch.

The "classics" (SF2, PacMan, Frogger etc..) seem a bit more reasonable at 400 points).

No mention of Galaga or Time Pilot though...

How does that compare to the PSP price?

Isn't it about Â£8 for 1000 points? That makes Lumines cost about Â£10 - which I guess ain't that bad for an XBLA game - of course a lot depends on what the games actually like when it's released.
