This Wednesday: Mutant Storm Empire, er, storms onto XBLA

by Ross Miller { Oct 29th 2007 at 2:28PM }

Microsoft isn't going to be very giving this Halloween, offering us just one title as we stand on its front porch bellowing "trick or treat" in our matching Geometry Wars costumes. This Wednesday, our Xbox Live Arcade treat will be Mutant Storm Empire. Not a bad title, to be sure, but if space shooters aren't your thing, you'd be better advised to spend your day walking door to door asking for candy from strangers.

A press release for this week's XBLA offering also includes a list of titles that will be available "in the coming weeks." The seven listed games include N+, Screwjumper!, Shrek-N-Roll, Spongebob Squarepants, Switchball, Undertow and Word Puzzle.

Mutant Storm Empire will be available 5 a.m. ET for 800 MS points (US $10).

The first one was great and, based on the trailers for this one, part 2 should be even better! (crosses fingers)

I just bought Exit and I have to tell you that is great, too bad I won't be around I'll be in Germany in just a couple of hours.

Cool - I wondered what had happene to Undertow!

I thought I would mention that the original "Mutant Storm" is available on many of the more advanced inflight entertainment aircraft. Qantas, TAM, United Airlines, and Qatar Airways to name a few... :-)

On that list of upcoming games, the only one I'm even remotely interested in is Undertow. And after viewing the trailer earlier today - Omega 5.

But I enjoyed the first Mutant Storm. I'm hearing that in this one, the gameplay will be non-stop because of the seamless levels.

Always a plus. But I hope they get rid of that belt system. That was just annoying...
