OK, so not so much a surprise on the XBLA front this week, since we brought you the rumor last week that Soulcalibur would likely be released soon on the service. (It'll be there this Wednesday for 800 points [$10]). But hey, Schizoid wasn't released like we thought it would be, so that's kind of a surprise, right? Not like, a great one, but a surprise all the same.
In other surprises that won't necessarily have you vibrating with glee, Wits and Wagers will be getting 280 new questions this week for 320 MS points ($4). In case, you know, you played it so many times that you ran out of questions.

I miss Sega so much.
If only Segata Sanshiro had lived longer maybe we will be playing in our DC2 right now.Now He would be so ashamed of Modern Sega.
Live to the Legend.

Add another 0 to your $10 and you'll be right on. Thanks for your research.

As Bloo said, do some research. For alot of systems that might be the case but not for the Dreamcast.
I have Marvel vs. Capcom btw.. glory... just glorious :)

Lol what? If that were so, I would have bought one instantly. But sadly, Dreamcasts systems are fucking expensive.

Not a fan of this kind of fighters (Sould Calibur, Dead or Alive, Tekken, etc.)
Not saying that those games are bad, but I would prefer a re-release of any Marvel vs Capcom with online play.

If they released MvsC2 on 360 I think the world would freeze over... goddamn licensing issues....

they gotta feel like shit sitting on a goldmine like that and not being able to do anything with it. But i agree with SFA2, i don't know why they haven't put it online yet. I guess the SFA anthology is still in stores, but i don't really want to keep rebuying all these game. I'll hold out until they're sold digitally.

Sucks how they cut out Mission mode... kills a lot of the fun..
And I guess Widescreen mode was too much to ask :-\

Who says they cut out mission mode? You have a source?
If so, it looks like I'll be hanging onto my dreamcast afterall.

As someone who never got into SC until SC2, I would have to say with the new SC4: Jump the Shark edition coming out I can't find one reason to buy this.

It's worth it just for being able to say you have SC 1. Who knows? Maybe you'll hate the new-fangled finisher moves or the changes they've made to the combat in SC4; I know the weakness of side-stepping in SC3 was extremely painful for me.

No online, no buy. I already have this game stored away for Dreamcast, the only games that make me wanna pull that thing out are Marvel vs Capcom, Sonic Advent or House of the Dead2. I'll just wait on SC4.

Does this game have online play?
That's the only reason I'll buy this.
If not, there's no reason to buy since I have the DC version.

I am guessing that MS figures Soul Caliber will sell so well that Schizoid would be crushed by it if it came out on the same day. I bet we see Schizoid in a week or two.
