A short while back we announced that the Xbox Live library of titles was to receive retail treatment by being made available in stores.
However with no word on whether this would be as part of a bundle or if each title would be sold sepereately, confusion reigned as to how Microsoft planned on rolling out these titles but alas, the answers are here.
Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged, is the first of the retail packs to be put together and will include the following titles:
Geometry Wars Evolved
Texas Hold 'Em Poker
Bejeweled 2 Deluxe
Outpost Kaloki X
Wik: Fable of Souls
Hardwood Backgammon
The pack is due for release this October and will cost 20, which in our opinion is a smashing deal, especially considering you get a free one-month Xbox Live Gold membership bundled in as well.
Microsoft have mentioned time and time again that they want to target the non gamers and draw them in, and they see the Arcade as their best shot of success.
