Microsoft Getting Ready To Throw An XBLA House Party
Warn the neighbors, shove the furniture out of the way, and throw a tarp on the floor--Microsoft is getting ready for a house party. The promotion, which begins February 16, includes the weekly releases of five Xbox Live Arcade games.
Just what are those games? Well, I'm glad you asked. The whole fandango starts with the release of Konami's Hard Corps: Uprising, with Bejeweled Blitz Live, Beyond Good & Evil HD, Full House Poker, and Torchlight following suit in an unannounced order.
The inclusion of Runic Games' Torchlight is a bit of a surprise. The XBLA version of the PC game has been updated with new controls, loot, and quests, and also a new pet for your adventurer. Huzzah!
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
