Why do XBLA release titles and dates have to be shrouded in such secrecy? I guarantee that if you announced the release dates for whats coming out for the next 3 months they would get people excited and will sell more XBLA games (more of the good games at least... oh... did I just answer my own question?) Retail games they slowly release information over a year or more (teaser trailers, set lists, boss characters, playable characters, etc) and it builds excitement and anticipation. And don't tell me that Microsoft doesn't know until a week beforehand what will be ready for release, they know when titles will be ready.

I think XBLA releases are kept secret because MS and/or the developer doesn't know until the very end when something will actually be released. I can imagine the Marketplace schedule gods playing musical chairs every day.

I guess they put all ready titles in a hat and do a draw on like, friday mornings. And some idiots write the ready titles on post-its, that's why we get multiple titles some weeks.

I've never heard of this game, but it looks entertaining. My MS points are still goin down on Magic the Gathering though.

sorry, but my last points went to big surf island.

one of the best uses of microsoft points i've ever used. so fun! however, I can't find the last megajump. I've smashed all the gates and broken all the billboards, but the megajumps are the hardest cause you can't tell if they've been completed or not.

yeah I have. and the one next to it. I'm thinking its probably one that I've jumped off but maybe landed sideways and crashed, so it didn't count. so far, I can't find a map online of all 15 of them so I can just hit them all and check them off. that would be really helpful if I could find it

The homeless looking rocket guy carrying the "will kill for gamerscore" sign at the end of the trailer was hilarious

It really looks good. Consider it bought, if I like what the demo offers. Rest'll go to Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

Yeah actually Rocket Riot looks like it could be cool. I'll try the demo.
