News | April 23, 2007 12:40 pm
Two weeks: four games. I like those odds. This week we get Eets: Chowdown and Pinball FX. I have been looking forward to Pinball for awhile but Eets may little to funky for my taste. Both games will cost 800 MS points, are rated 'E for Everyone' and will be available to all Xbox Live regions at 5:00 a.m. EST on Wednesday April 25th.

Pinball looks fabulous graphically. Hope it plays as well. Eets looks kinda Alien Hominidish, with the cartoony style. Not my type of game, although someone let me know if it is fun...

I wonder if the Pinball will actually work this time with the Camera? I think the creators of Totem Forgot to hook up the camera when they created that one.

The last pinball game I bought was Metroid Pinball for the DS, and I really enjoyed that one. I'll definitely trying out the demo. Thanks Z!
