ESRB Watch: Live Free or Die Hard for XBLA? [Update]

Tue, 2007-07-10 14:37 — LunarDuality

Worthplaying is reporting on the latest ERSB posting. Namely, an entry for Live Free or Die Hard for the Xbox 360 with a rating of T for Teen. Then the conversation turns to Xbox Live Arcade. Why? Simple.

The developer listed on the ESRB site is Sensory Sweep Studios who are responsible for the XBLA version of Street Fighter II. In addition, their history shows that they work almost exclusively on titles for portables. Put it all together, and one might assume that Live Free or Die Hard would be an XBLA title.

Wow, crazy! I wonder if

Wow, crazy! I wonder if they were planning to release it alongside the movie. If so, will they still release it late, or just scrap it?

I wonder what genre it is. I hope it's a puzzle game that involves matching 3 or more objects of the same color. XBLA could really use a game like that.

Yeah, the timing is

Yeah, the timing is certainly bizarre. But we all know how fickle XBLA cert can be.

And a matching game sounds about right, LOL.

I'm not convinced Die Hard
I'm not convinced Die Hard would make a good XBLA game, but boy that movie rocked.

I don't know how I feel

I don't know how I feel about this, to be honest.

If they retool Sega's Die
If they retool Sega's Die Hard Arcade, sign me up. I imagine it'll be a promotional give-away when the movie is released on home video.
