Lumines delayed indefinently.

 

[ant1532]

**** my 360 is broken. Im going to give my friend my harddrive i think and have him download the best shit for me

 

[C4Lukins]

I wonder what this never before announced major franchise on XBOX Live Arcade is? I bet I know what a lot of people will guess...

 

[raYne]

Release the demo list you bastards!

Live FTW!

 

[GhaleonEB]

Awesome. The E3 bonaza rocked. And with background downloading, I'll be grabbing even more of this stuff.

 

[PhatSaqs]

Ace.

Hope we get something as godly as Lost Planet for a demo. That alone made the whole thing worth it.

 

[SnakeXs]

Temp. DLs = weaksauce.

No details about demos other than there will be some = *sigh*

Can't wait, though. I just want some details of what demos, or even how many, to expect.

E3 was great and all, but demos wise, outside of LP, it didn't deliver. Not anyone's fault, but I just don't wanna get too excited for that again.

Still, it should be great.

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

New unannounced major franchise for XBLA hmm? I hope to god it isn't something completely lame like Super Pac Man.

 

[Smilebit]

Awesome! When is the Microsoft pre-TGS conference?

 

[Mojovonio]

Alan Wake gamerpics! WOOT!

 

[AZ Greg]

Yes! Picture packs for Alan Wake should mean we'll also get a good amount of new details.

 

[IJoel]

GIMME GIMME GIMME!

 

[Beer Monkey]

I wonder what this never before announced major franchise on XBOX Live Arcade is? I bet I know what a lot of people will guess...

Worms? (never officially announced, but in development)
Bomberman? (probably too soon after Act Zero)
Ghouls 'n Ghosts?
Megaman?
King of Fighters?
Doom?
Final Fantasy?

 

[GreekWolf]

New unannounced major franchise for XBLA hmm?

Killer Instinct Gold

[Frenck]

Marathon HD with XBL multiplayer... *dreams*

 

[Mojovonio]

this sucks so bad

Seriously. I don't get that.

 

[The Innocent X]

But that was already announced?

EDIT: I wish it was SWOS, but I doubt it

 

[Frenck]

But that was already announced?

Not by Konami or MS.

 

[Hunter D]

Marathon HD with XBL multiplayer... *dreams*

This would own hard.

 

[GreekWolf]

Marathon HD with XBL multiplayer... *dreams*

:lol That would be so awesome

Spoiler

not gonna happen

 

[Mrbob]

Whewt.

I don't see Lost Odyssee listed though. :/

 

[DMczaf]

Whewt.

I don't see Lost Odyssee listed though. :/

No crapdown either! Poor MrBoob!

 

[The Innocent X]

Not by Konami or MS.

If this is castlevania, thats pretty weak. Konami have already said Q1 2007 and confirmed it was the PS1 version, so surely that doesn`t count as unannounced?

 

[Mrbob]

Crackdown!

It's a hidden extra!

 

[pswii60]

DigDug

 

[soul creator]

new XBLA major franchise you say?

Spoiler

it's a fan game

 

[GilloD]

I hope my new TV is here by then. 3 weeks, my ass. Try 7 and counting.

 

[Mojovonio]

new XBLA major franchise you say?

Spoiler

it's a fan game

So you're saying that Halo is a new franchise?

 

[DaCocoBrova]

Wait, they expire by the 29th?! That sucks.

 

[MrMeltdown]

Whewt.

I don't see Lost Odyssee listed though. :/

Thats cuz Lost Odyssey wont be a video, itll be a demo

 

[C4Lukins]

So you're saying that Halo is a new franchise?

The strange wording he uses could really mean anything.

 

[rubso]

PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARTY HAAAAAAAAAAARD !!!!!!

 

[soul creator]

So you're saying that Halo is a new franchise?

for XBLA it would be

I guess you can read "major franchise on Xbox Live Arcade" a couple different ways...

 

[Mojovonio]

I guess you're right. Too bad it won't happen.

I'm going to find this guessing amusing.

see, we can keep secrets!

 

[Stinkles]

It's national take your 360 to your office's T3 week!

 

[PhatSaqs]

I'm going to find this guessing amusing.

So it's not SoTN?

 

[MrMeltdown]

Sega title?

 

[Owzers]

The game is Secret of Mana, thank's for spoiling it Arne!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't want to wait two weeks anyways

 

[C4Lukins]

I'm going to find this guessing amusing.

see, we can keep secrets!

My bad guesses

Castlevania: Symphony
TMNT 4 Turtles In Time
Killer Instinct
Some sort of Halo Arcade game
A new Geometry Wars
Worms

Considering the timing I wouldn't be suprised if it was a port of an NES/SNES/GENESIS era JRPG.

 

[soul creator]

I'm going to find this guessing amusing.

see, we can keep secrets!

I predict 3 pages, minimum

 

[Arsenal]

Thats cuz Lost Odyssey wont be a video, itll be a demo

This is my biggest hope...

 

[Rogosh]

FFVII confirmed for XBLA?

Spoiler

yeah right

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

I'm going to find this guessing amusing.

see, we can keep secrets!

If it's Super Pac Man I'm going to drive over to Redmond and kick you in the nuts.
