Microsoft has sent word along that yes, Alien Hominid HD will in fact be on Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday and that it can be yours for the low, low price of 800 Microsoft Points. This is actually a pleasant surprise as Alien Hominid is seen as one of the more full-bodied titles on the XBLA block and one that could have fetched a heftier price. Suddenly, 1200 MS Points for Lumines Live feels even more ridiculous.The developers over at The Behemoth also have some treats in store for those awesome enough to scale their leader boards. Should you be a bad enough dude to land at the top of any of the charts, The Behemoth will send you a trophy. No fooling! A physical manifestation of your skills in which to utilize while gloating! The contest is set to last "until we get tired of sending you guys stuff."
In other news, serious cat? It looks like you've got this Wednesday off, buddy.

That's cool. Alien Hominid on Gamecube was awesome. I'll have to try this one too.

1200 points for lumines never seemed ridiculous to me; it is a good game.
On the other hand, paying $30 for the gamecube version of Alien Hominid seems kindof crazy now.

So, does this have online coop?

Is this the same as the Gamecube version but in HD? Because I bought the gc version when it came out and it's not worth it to me just for HD.

Are you kidding? Try this one too? It's the same game with cleaner graphics and achievements tacked on.
If you've played it it's a novelty. If you haven't, it's a steal.
Great game though. Just tired of seeing ports and remakes on XBLA. Also want more full demos with 400/800 Points to activate online multiplayer and Achievements. Like Heavy Weapon.
