You may not have to wait too long after Christmas (http://xbox.joystiq.com/2009/10/28/introversion-darwinia-on-xbla-after-christmas/) for Darwinia+ (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/darwinia) on Xbox Live Arcade, because Introversion Software says (http://twitter.com/IVSoftware/statuses/6948538059) the game has passed Microsoft's certification process. It's been a long time coming (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/03/25/darwinia-confirmed-for-xbox-live-this-fall/) and you can bet we're glad to finally see those little stick men at the end of the tunnel.

If you're wondering what all of the hubbub is about, then we suggest you check out this free demo (http://www.bigdownload.com/games/darwinia/pc/darwinia-demo-mac/) of the PC version over at Big Download.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Darwinia+ for XBLA passes Microsoft certification (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/12/23/darwinia-for-xbla-passes-microsoft-certification/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Wed, 23 Dec 2009 19:30:00 EST.

Awesome game, the PC version. This one isn't out yet. :p

If you haven't tried this game yet, go for it. At least grab the demo.

This is easily my favorite PC game of the past few years. Absolutely stunning...I'm REALLY glad it's coming to a wider audience on XBL...hope it comes to the PSNetwork too!

On a related note, this game is currently on sale on Steam.

Now if MS would certify RBI Baseball already.

Excellent, if only they'd get off their backsides and sort out Gridrunner Revolution I might actually be looking forward to XBLA in 2010. :)

Darwinia is amazing, glad to see it finally getting to a new audience. Now, get working on Defcon for XBLA! If that happened, I'd get a gold account just to nuke some of you sum'bitches back to the Stone Age.

I'm still not quite sure what this game is, seeing as I don't have an appropriate PC to try the demo, but going by the screenshots alone, I've been really looking forward to it.
