Usually Microsoft has been pretty good about offering their gamers at least one new game every Wednesday in their downloadable game service,Xbox Live Arcade. Well now this week we will see two new games hitting the service this Wednesday.
The first I will mention is the arcade classic Gyruss, originally released in the 1980s by Konami, will be available for 400 Microsoft points ($5). Described as a "tube shooter" like its arcade cousin Tempest, Gyruss sees gamers piloting a spaceship and blasting away enemies and space debris. The XBLA version features 23 levels and split-screen cooperative and versus modes.
Also teed up for the week is Sierra Online's 3D Ultra MiniGolf Adventures for 800 Microsoft points ($10). As its title suggests, the game features putt-putt challenges across 36 holes and four-person multiplayer support over Xbox Live. Among the courses featured in the game are links designed under carnival, Old West, and outer space themes. This also marks one of the first sports games to be released on Xbox Live Arcade which is a trend I hope to see continue.
Both of these titles will be available 2am PST this Wednesday April 18th.
