Xbox Live Arcade Wednesday

News | December 10, 2008 9:16 am
Its Wednesday folks, and you know what that means: Two new XBLA titles for you to check out! So when you are home next, mosey on over to the Marketplace and check out Meteos Wars and PowerUp Forever. I am glad I don't judge these XBLA games by their titles, or I would be staying away from quite a few of them. The titles will run you 800 Microsoft points each. Check it:


Meteos Wars


Take a ride through an intergalactic journey where you slide, stack, and ignite your blocks to blast away the world-ending Meteos. Only you can stop them from falling and crushing your planet! Master combo links and power-ups to challenge your friends in intense multiplayer sessions.

Puzzle games don't get any better than Meteos Wars, where the story, situation, and environments formulate an explosive adventure."


PowerUp Forever


Survive! Assimilate! Evolve!

In PowerUp Forever you have to grow to survive and to grow you must destroy! Hunt and defeat enemy Guardians to harvest their glowing energy cores, gaining power to grow your ship and expand your weaponry. As you evolve you attract the attentions of ever-larger enemies, and your fight for survival goes on.






Sounds like it could be interesting; although I am not sure just how necessary two more space shooters were in the XBLA repertoire, its always good to have some variety...I guess. If you do end up checking these out, post your thoughts on them below.

Hmm. I dunno about these titles. I'll have to try out the demos. I am thoroughly enjoying the Community game 'WORD SOUP' though.
