I can see myself playing a lot of those older games for sure!
I played Hexic, feeding frenzy, and frogger last night for a few minutes. I plan on downloading most of those games listed above. Joust, Robotron, and Smash TV were all fun.
I also see that Pac Man and Galaga are coming out soon. 👍
I will at least have to try Gauntlet out since I love Gauntlet Dark Legacy for the xbox and PC version.
 
Where did you see the info for the upcoming Live arcade games, CB69? My wife LOVES Galaga and that would be a must buy in our family.:)

BTW, is Frogger just a straight port or is it revamped at all? I was thinking of DL it but I'm getting low on MS points at the moment.:scared:

I was soooo close to getting three black pearl combo last night on Hexic in three different games and I kept accidently combining stars or getting bombed to end the game!:ouch: I'm determined to get that achevement.:crazy:

frogger looks just like it did back in the day, its actually kinda hard lol.

damn i have never gotten a black pearl :grumpy:
 
I play Bejewled 2 quite often.

I mainly bought this because it has always been a classic game I've always liked, especially on my Dad's old pocket PC. So, I decided to get it for the 360. It's one of a few games where I could play for ages and not reailse so many hours have passed by and not get bored. The sounds, visuals and gameplay are amusing enough to keep you going. A week or two back I was playing this game for 2 weeks in a row without playing anything 3D whatsoever - it's that addicting.

What I find annoying though is to unlock the hidden modes requires you have to put a ridiculous amount of time into the game. For example, reach level 270 on Endless Mode to unlock Hyper Mode. It took me 30 hours to get to level 70, but the levels get longer as you go along... It's all part of the fun though, eh? :)

What made things even more annoying for me was when the 360 was having the serious freezing problems, it froze while I was playing it and I lost all of that progress. :ouch: I haven't even caught up to where I was yet. Oh well...

Overall, I'd give it a 9.0. Highly recommended.

Yea, we downloaded the Frogger demo last night, neither me or my wife thought much of it so I'm glad I didn't waste my points on it.👍

I finally got the three black pearl combo on Hexic last night, and rang up 450,000 total points.:dopey: All acheivements complete except for the six black pearl combo, which is probably out of my reach. That's a tough one to get for sure.:crazy:
