This week on XBLA: Revenge of the double releases!

This week on XBLA we see the arrival of 2 new games (something that didn't happened in a lot of time), namely Rocky and Bullwinkle and Battlezone.

Rocky and Bullwinkle will be available for 800MSP, while Battlezone will set you back 400 MS.

Both titles will be available this coming Wednesday, April 16th, at 9:00 am GMT.

Battlezone seems

Battlezone seems interesting, and not a bad deal at only $5US. I'll look a bit more into it, mos def play the demo. You getting it ashn0d? or thinking about it?

I haven't played Battlezone

I haven't played Battlezone in years. I hope they kept the option for green vector drawings. I hated the 2600 verson.

I am crossing my fingers Rocky and Bullwinkle is a good release. Zen studios did well with the DLC R&B table, so I don't think my hope is misplaced.

I don't think battlezone

I don't think battlezone holds up anymore after all of these years. What would hold up is their new(er) PC title, which was really fun. The graphics are a bit outdated but they could do the Vigilante 8 Arcade duty to them.

Xbox Live Vision

In an interesting note, both of this week's XBLA games will utilize the Xbox Live Vision Camera in some function but not entirely throughout the game(s).

Saw a video on Bullwinkle at

Saw a video on Bullwinkle at Gamerscoreblog and it looks to play exactly like WarioWare, which in my mind could be a very great add to the XBLA library

Yeah, man. WarioWare was

Yeah, man. WarioWare was fun. I'll check out R&b as well.

R&B -- tee hee, that puts a new spin on the music genre. 'Course, I'd hate to hear the Rocky&Bullwinkle cast do rhythm & blues. I don't need torturous stacked on top of boring. lol

The first thing I thought

The first thing I thought when I watched the R&B gameplay video was I thought that it looked like a bunch of mediorce flash games packed together with a common theme.

sales will bomb for R&B

sales will bomb for R&B
