Offical Xbox Live Marketplace Update List

[gepeto]

I have been stubborn to adopt xbox live arcade in to my gaming.

Being that there is so many street fighters out there I was a little reluctant. Being the street fighter fan that I am I downloaded the the trial and love it.
The controller definately takes some getting use to once you play enough you get into the groove.

I am glad the gameplay has been bumped up. I really believe that most gamers have outgrown the original speed.
The difficulty has been bumped up to maybe arcade. I dunno.

I am warming up preparing to go online.
Even though I have plenty of other versions of street fighter too me this one is definately the best.

I must admit I think Microsoft is on to something. They are just blowing the doors off with this xbox live. Now I have to play cacth up.

Really cheeseball people online... droppers and E-Honda slapper pricks...

Can't agree more about people dropping, but Honda is so easy to counter, it's not even funny. Projectiles obviously work wonders, and the only characters that can't jump the slap are Zangief, Balrog, and Sagat. If you're losing with anyone else, it's your own fault.

Depending if you can hit a decent half circle with the lag, but with the limited amount of special moves(compared to the later games), it's not like we knew cheese tactics would not happen at least half the time..

Downloaded the full version Saturday night. Played a bunch of regular matches on Live, went 6-1, got excited. Then, realized that those don't count and you actually have to play *ranked* matches. Fine, played ranked matches. Went 0-4. That sucked :P Haven't played since.

I've had plenty of people drop out of the game in Street Fighter just as I was about to get in that final hit to win the match. You can't win every time guys, just take the one loss. Everybody either uses Ken, Ryu, or E-Honda. I have yet to see many people use anyone else than that. I use Blanka because his zapper move can get me out of the corner. I encourage everybody to use e-honda and do the slap move, I know how to stop him and have been getting lots of wins because of this.

British Gaming Blog today posted dates for the next batch of Xbox Live Arcade games. These were taken from The Official Xbox Magazine in America, so I guess they're pretty solid...

Pac-Man August 9th
Texas Hold ‘em August 16th
Time Pilot August 23rd
Scramble August 30th
Lumines Live! September 6th

The big one, for me, is Lumines Live! And it comes out just two days before Dead Rising. Crap!

Lumines Live in September - it figures...

Can't wait for Pac-Man, Time Pilot, and Scramble

Time Pilot will probaly be some easy achievement points.

Any word on Sonic the Hedgehog or Defender?

[dbiersdorf]

Lumines should be awesome. I want Mortal Kombat 3 though.

It's Wednesday - which means Pac-Man is up.

And for all those who used to play by using the patterns.... You can forget that idea. The ghost's AI is alot harder, plus they take different routes than they do in the arcade version.

EDIT - And the controls SUCK ASS!!

[GrandAmChandler]

Is anyone else besides me excited for Texas Hold'em?

[dbiersdorf]

Man Pac-Man's achievements were way too easy. I got them all in under two hours. The only semi-hard one was eating all four ghosts on all four power pellets. Oh well, now onto high scores.

Is anyone else besides me excited for Texas Hold'em?

I'm pumped for that. It should make for good multiplayer gaming.

I would download texas hold em' only if it costs 400 MS points, anything more than that, I'd rather play for money in real life with friends.
