TMNTTMNTWhile I am unsuccessfully hacking away at Scarlett's ugly porcelain self (i.e. in Silent Hill), a new game has made its way to XBLA. This time it is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time. Remember it was set for July 22 but then switched places with Splosion Man? TMNT is ready for release today – and, incidentally, I'm still waiting. Let me brush up on what to expect from the game.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2Marvel vs. Capcom 2And the party continues as XBLA releases one more big player. Of course all the die-hard arcade gamers know what I am referring to – Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

worms 2worms 2How about that? Worms 2 is coming out on XBLA today. Well, if you are a fan of those cute crawly creatures, you will want to check out Worms 2: Armageddon. So what is new? Seems like the good folks might have added to the arsenal of these super pink fighters. This includes super bunker buster, Buffalo of lies, the Holy Hand Grenade, the baseball bat (hurrah!), napalm and the petrol bomb.

Players can also look forward to a variety of new modes (e.g. rope racing mode and fort mode). You are also going to get a whole lot more arenas. Examples on the list include Cheese Moon, Construction Site and Medieval England. Looks like the guys behind the game heard all the complaints and whining and decided the first game did not do justice to this cult classic.
