HandsomeDead Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 "The third annual Summer of Arcade will kick-off in July," Microsoft announced today, revealing that it will see the following downloadable Xbox 360 games released: * Castlevania: Harmony of Despair * Hyrdo Thunder Hurricane * Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light * Limbo * Monday Night Combat That's your summer sorted. Limbo is fo' sho and the others I'll go by ear. I think Monday Night Combat looks sweet, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Compared to last year that looks like a pretty wack ass line up to be honest. I'll probably pick up Limbo and I'll trial them all of course but currently I can't see me getting any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGunKnacker Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 looks like there could be some crackers in there! look forward to the demos and reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Yea, i liked the look of most of them. Love these summers of arcade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Compared to last year that looks like a pretty wack ass line up to be honest. We all said that about last year's line-up though and that was a corker. Splosion Man, Shadow Complex and Trials made it for me, this year Castlevania and Limbo look up my street, will be a nice surprise seeing if the others are good.

Craymen Edge Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I posted something on Monday Night Combat before, it looks like it could be good if it takes off. <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value=" name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>I'm not a big Castlevania fan, definitely couldn't tell you the difference between all the millions of versions there are out there. It'll be interesting to see if there's more to Limbo than the graphical style, and the Tomb Raider spin off looks quite cool. I'm more interested in a couple of the ones trailed before the Summer of Arcade titles in Hendo's video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatular Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Compared to last year that looks like a pretty wack ass line up to be honest. We all said that about last year's line-up though and that was a corker. i was thinking the same, i don't like the look of the summer of arcade games this year, but it was the same last year and trials made me completely wrong. also GUWANGE will be the best xbla game this year (for me anyway) so it's a shame they didn't put it in the sommer of arcade and try and promote it a bit, still i understand why they didn't.
