Aside from being one of the best indie bands to emerge from Champaign, Illinois in recent years, Cubes and Vandals neatly compose this week's Xbox Live Arcade update. As
previously announced and reiterated
just now, Square Enix's
Death by Cube and Konami's
Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment join the Xbox 360's download service on Wednesday, January 20.
After missing its
original release target in 2009,
Vandal Hearts brings the classic strategy franchise up to speed with enhanced visuals, an overhauled interface and a 1200
($15) price tag. Those less enthused by moving squares on a grid might prefer mowing down cubes on a plane -- that's what you'll do in
Death by Cube, available for 800
($10). It's also what you'll do at a Cubes on a Plane concert. They're just
terrible live.
