PopCap's Peggle confirmed for XBLA

by Ludwig Kietzmann { Jan 9th 2008 at 7:00AM }

The ESRB's on-going quest to free cats from their cruel bag prisons has prompted another and surprisingly quick confirmation -- Peggle is indeed on its way to Xbox Live Arcade. Shacknews reports that interactive drug peddler, PopCap, has tentative plans to expose Xbox 360 owners to the Pachinko-like substance in Q2 2008.

Coupled with PC, Mac and iPod versions, it seems there's simply no escaping the addictive power of unicorns.

Zombie unicorns (Zomcorn?) are just plain creepy though. (refering to Steam version)

Now, that's only available to PC owners of Orange Box, right?

Everybody has it on the PC, already, so it makes sense to make another port.

I mean, who needs exclusives?

Nintendo. Badly.

rockintom, I lolled! :-D

@rockintom: Your comment also gave me lulz.

They must be building new levels or something. Because I'm pretty sure a junior engineer at PopCap could port this thing onto xbox 360 in about 2 nights work.

Or maybe the xbox leaderboard integration is really hard..

Great game though. I'll probably buy it (again)

Excellent I just played it for the first time last night. I look forward to the getting many friends and family addicted.

1. Xbox Live multiplayer Peggle

:D

Personally I believe that Peggle Extreme is the greatest Peggle. Nothing brings joy to my heart like GLaDOS congratulating me on a job well done.

Just bought this for my iPod, but I'll probably buy it again for XBLA. Too bad you just can't buy one copy and play it anywhere, but I guess that's the nature of the beast...

This game is easily one of 2007's best games. I'm happy to see it come to the 360. Between Rez HD and now this I'm pretty stoked for the 360 this year. 2008 looked like it didn't have much, but if they keep pumping out these triple A titles we'll be all good.
