    Wheres the new Maw DLC level?

  • Zeipher Burger

    yes, Aracde

  • ImaginedBug

    Bummer that xbox.com is having maintenance done so I can’t queue up the trial for this Aracde title. Say, Major, could you talk to the website folks and get them to put the Live Status thing on every country’s xbox.com? Us Dutchies don’t have one, so I always have to check the US version.

  • Ahmedz

    lulz Aracde

  • ItsNymo

    Good news for all the bear and bird fans! Time for you all to experience what Stop ‘N Swop should have been!

    @Peaking Legoman: The new Maw DLC level is actually on the marketplace if you look at the downloads available for The Maw, however, I wouldn’t buy it and try it right now: The achievement for the new DLC level is not up yet…

  • Sim31

    A new Aracde game is here!!!

  • MR SUPREME69

    Finnaly i’ve been waiting for this to be put on XBLA. Y do half the people in here spell ARCADE, “aracade”

  • Xbox Sonic

    Nice. I’ll buy Banjo-Tooie tomorrow.

  • Solid Warri0r

    epic

  • BeAkErOo

    oh man i must be feeling slyxdexic cos i keep seeing aracde games everywhere

    gonna grab this one

  • Sneeches

    hmm gonna try the demo for this, but other than that dont think i’ll buy it..

  • Exu

    Not around for today so I’ll have to queue up the trials, have a go and then toss a coin.

  • WoolyMammoth27

    Another classic where I don’t even need a trial version. XBLA is on a roll, I hope it keeps up! :D

    So glad the framerate has been fixed, it also looks beautiful. Shame you can’t use the old superbanjo cheat code though, running faster is almost a necessity considering the size of these levels! lol

    Good Morning

  • MoonrakerC

    Do you think this will be on Amazon today? I want to use my $10 arcade promo on this title.

  • Anonymous

    15 bucks? seriously?
    it’s like 7 on ebay

    where’s the deal?

  • MACPH1ST0

    ItsNymo: The achievement for the new Maw DLC level is showing on xbox.com now, so it should be safe to go for the achievement now!

  • Shonk

    This is one of the few games that are worth the 1200

    Being that this is a full porting of the source and not just n64 emulation
    and also adding genuine widescreen which i doubt was that easy

    being as i had the first banjo for free i can justify
    it to myself as 2 x 600 point games :p

  • agc8602

    When does Amazon update with new arcade games?

    You must be lucky unless your just looking at an auction that hasnt ended.
    Over here its £10 on XBLA and goes for at least £20-40+ so at this price its an absolute bargain.

  • Soniccar

    I missed out on this first time ’round. I had the first one on N64. I can’t find it for less than $15, that’s why I’ll get this as soon as I get around to it. I really don’t want to give Rare any money though. They seem to have a love/hate relationship with their fans… They hate them, but they love their money.

    Hate may be too strong, but they sure don’t mind jerking their fans around.
    Of course, the only reason they won’t make a new Killer Instinct(a series I’ve never played), is that they know they’ll screw it up. Also, Battletoads most likely won’t translate to 3D very well.

  • DamianIsabel

    the best game on xbox live arcade,
    so addictive, I’ve spent 16 hours in one sitting lol (30th on leaderbards).
