Awesome. I've got 3000 points burning a hole in my pocket, and nowhere to spend them.

Cloning Clyde looks like the most interesting game on this list.

I agree on the Cloning Clyde bit, it reminds me of Earthworm Jim for the Genisis

I think MS is finally in the position that they think they can keep the weekly bit for a while. I think that is why the forums for the texas hold em and lumines live showing up on xbox.com money says they will follow this wave. So theoretically you have 7 more weeks before a week without a release. That would give them plenty of time to continue their testing of other titles and lining up more. With the rumors of up to 20 in the pipeworks there is a high probability that they would have time to see other titles through production and enter testing. This is great.

With 'The Summer of Xbox Live Arcade' about to go down, it's only fitting that they would follow up on the next day with Frogger. If they can get someone from Microsoft to comment on it, then it's official.

I love it. The best news regarding Arcade to ever be released.

Awesome. That is all I have to say. And I normally have a lot to say, but I feel "awesome" just encompasses everything I'm feeling now.

I bet they'd love to continue it as long as possible. But even committing to 5 dates is pretty ballsy considering the way XBLA releases have gone.

I wouldn't be surprised to see this continue with games like Lumines Live, Contra, Texas Hold Em, Time Pilot, and maybe even Small Arms.

[...] It looks like they kept their promise. Frogger was available first thing this morning! For a mere 400 Microsoft Points ($5), you can download the ‘High - Def’ frog with the usual 12 achievements, Vs. and Co - Op over Xbox Live, and much more. [...]

That's why they are calling it the summer of xbox live arcade... they really meant it's t he summer of george!

[...] Texas Hold ‘Em Poker now has a release date of August 23rd, 2006, according to Xbox.com. Which is exactly two weeks after Pac-Man, on a Wednesday. It seems ‘believable’ after the recent announcement. [...]
