Could be genre's of games, old games, whatever.

Although they'll never do it, I'd like to see Mahjongg on XBLA. Play against anyone across the world, it would be great. Not the matching tiles game, there is a real game thats somewhat close to rummy in play style. If they did do that, it would probably be a big boon to the Japanese market too.

Cribbage, Just throwing this idea out there because ive been playinf a lot recently and i know a lot of people who play it. Or maybe some other popular card/board games that are more mainstream.

Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Streets of Rage. ZAMN could have some cool achievements too.

I would love to see Bubble Bobble, some Mahjongg, a decent solitaire game and the game Book Worm, it was on the original Live arcade for the old xbox.

New, non-classic-revival, engaging, challenging games that like more than a 1990 PC shareware titles. Cloning Clyde is like this, though I didn't get into it. Marble Blast Ultra is the best example of this. Heck, I'd even take Marble Blast 2.

I want Tapper, and the person who said Crib, I would go for that too.

3 things:

1. Star Control melee mode-esque, top-down space combat with a variety of simple ships, each having a standard and special weapon. Heck, if they wanted to throw in a galactic dominance strategy mode too, I'd be OK with that. 1-4 players, with bots, over Live.

2. Cyberball, or some other simple, non-NFL XBLA football game. Preferably the real deal, though, or a clone of it, enhanced for Live multiplayer. I've been hoping for a Cyberball remake for years, doubt it would ever happen.

3. Commander Keen and/or Jazz Jackrabbit anthologies, inspired by the mention of "1990's sharware titles" above. Good luck with that one, though.

OK, 4 things:

4. Battle Chess 8-)

+1 on that as long as its 4 player online as well as offline.

Here's a small list of what I'd like to see:

Guardian Heroes (it's 6 players in multiplay and 4 players in campaign - awesome on XBL I'd reckon)

NBA Jam

Speedball 2100

Tempest 3000 (i've never found a nuon system that actually worked, and I want to play this game SO badly)

Command & Conquer / Warzone 2100

Virtua Fighter series

Sega Rally

Daytona USA

Power Drift

Bubble Bobble

Puzzle Bobble / Bust A Move

Virtua Cop Trilogy

House of the Dead 1 & 2

Sim City 4 (the online section was quite frankly brilliant fun, and SC is one of my fave strategy games of all time)

GOLDEN AXE!

Destruction Derby (Probably never gonna happen now Psygnosis is SCEE)

Elite 3: Frontier First Encounters (A superb single player game set in a massive universe. Imagine how cool it'd be if they revamped the graphics and put a multiplayer component into it, similar to Chromehounds. I'd probably never sleep again)

Street Racer - 8 Player Mario kart style action. I loved the Snes and Saturn versions. Online it'd rock.

Quake 3 :D :) :-P

Every Extend / Noiz2SA / Rrootage

Goldeneye / Perfect Dark.

Killer Instinct

Battle Chess

Kikstart II (most of you will have never heard of it, but it was an old amiga stuntbike game. You could build your own stunt courses and race the opposition as to who could get through the course faster. Absolutely superb and I would LOVE to see a revamp of it)

Ikaruga :D

Carmageddon

and Fighters Megamix

if any of those came out, I'd be a very very happy man.

Man, I can think of tons of games I would love to play on XBLA, mainly for the chance to play either two player co-op, or head to head action.



1. Madden '93 (Genesis version) - I'll go to my grave thinking this is the best playing football game of all time (from a pure offensive/defensive playability standpoint). I would love to challenge people all over the world in this game.

2. ZAMN (SNES version) - How fun would it be to play this in two player co-op? Would be absolutely awesome

3. Contra 3: The Alien Wars - Again, another game I would love to play in two player co-op.

4. Daytona USA - Imagine an Arcade perfect translation, or even the Saturn version (anything but the Dreamcast version) except imagine if like 22 cars could all be real people racing around the track. That would be so pimp.

5. Doom - PC version -Playing the original Doom in Deathmatch mode would be sweet

6. Unreal - PC version - I've always wanted to play the orginal Unreal on a console. Not too sure why, but I do. Being able to play the game with achievements added into the mix, would only add more umph to the overall experience

7. NBA Live '95 - SNES version - I've always like the SNES version of NBA Live '95. I think it might be the best 16 bit hoops game. It would be nice to be able to play against players all over the world in this game.

8. Nam 1975 - Neo-Geo - Nam 75 is a game that really needs to be played with 2 players. So playing two player co-op online would be very cool indeed.

9. Dungeon Explorer - TG-16 - In Dungeon Explorer, If I remember correctly, 5 people could play simultaneously via the TurboTap. Being able to play with 4 other players online would be absolutely amazing. Honestly, I would have this much, much, much higher on the list if I thought of it before now.

10. Cyber-Lip - Neo-Geo - On the downside, Cyber-Lip with 2 players is almost too easy, but I still love Cyber-Lip, and would love to share the experience with a friend online.

Ricochet. They had a version for the first XBLA. They need one on the 360 XBLA.

I second Warlords, XBL would just be awsome for that game. One of my all time favorites.

everybody has pretty much said what I was going to say.

Killer Instinct

Warlords

Kaboom!

some form of turn based RPG would be cool

a final fight/streets of rage type of game (maybe even the original NARC)

Discs of Tron.

Just imagine the online matches....

Spacewar!

Though granted, Star Control's combat is pretty much the same thing...
