Ms. Pac-Man waka wakas XBLA this week

She swallows

uh-oh. looks like my fiancee will be spending 400 of my MS points this week.

im down if it costs 100 microsoft points.. but we know that will never happen

no worms? f this garbage.

Soooooooo what happened to worms?

NEW Rally-X for the final week of 06. Nothing for the first week of 07. Ms Pac-Man this week...

M$ better be having good new games for the next few weeks...

Nah, no shouting here. I'm happy to be getting a game at all, they could of (barely) gotten away with not releasing a game what with the Gears of War maps being free...

For all of you who are sulking over Ms. Pac-Man, just remember that Lost Planet is coming out tomorrow :D

Fuckin whiners I swear. Anyway ms pacman is a good retro game. That's what we've been needing. I can't wait for worms either but I'm not gonna whine and shit my pants because some other good game is comin out.

Argh my promotional points expire in two days, was hoping something worth buying would come out! :(

Prob gonna buy lumines..

I'm not going to "whine and shit my pants" either, however, Ms pacman is pacman w/ a bow on her head... this isn't fresh content. Had they release Ms pacman and pacman at the same time in a package for five bucks, that would have been a deal. Finding out that Worms had been delayed and Ms pacman would take it's place was a disappointment. There's nothing wrong with Ms Pacman, but there's nothing right with it either.

Another point to consider is this - why dispense XBLA games one at a time? Why not both Ms Pacman and Worms? Nintendo's Virtual Console has seem several releases a week, and XBLA rarely produces one game a week - it seems there's a flaw somewhere in the system. This tiny trickle of content was ok when the 360 was alone in the next gen market, but the other consoles have arrived, and it's time to kick it up a notch to stay competitive.

Well, I do agree that ms.pacman is, in essence, pacman, and should have not been released seperately.
However, I don't agree that the arcade should have several releases a week.
I like to have something to look forward to, not be rushed with a stockpile of games I could never afford because they arrive too quickly.
Also, although I may be wrong, I believe the wii's titles are older nintendo games, which I could easily attain from emula- err....second hand stores anytime.
