@Twilight Now

Thanks. I'm not in a rush for it, they can take their time and make a THREE MAN Lobby an all. Not sure WHERE I heard that June 2X/July 1 release date from, just went with it. Garou is nice, most Neo Geo fans can't tell the diff, except for multiplayer online and it is not on a Neo Geo System. MS needs to officially bring out a 'FIGHTING' D-Pad (where back is BACK and block is BLOCK, not Back-Jump). Those Street Fighter IV D-Pads were nice, but the controller setup is no where near as complete for people raised on SNES, PS1, PS2 and even PS3 D-Pads. 'We're' getting better at using what we have, but boy, my thumbs are tingling just a little. The fighting clan is chanting 'Blaze Blue' and I don't have a clue to WHO or WHAT that is outside of being a fighting game (Guilty Gear-ish on steroids?) supposedly coming and having a lobby for more than 2 players. My keyword: lobby. :)

For those wondering, Armageddon isn't the PC version, it's a sequel to the current game on XBLA, although it has all of the weapons from Armageddon, plus several new ones, better physics, more customisation and a lot of new maps, etc. I questioned why the stuff wasn't just added as DLC at first, but it does seem to be adding a lot.

I still have those problems as well. Hoping they get it all fixed soon.

Sweet, glad to see KOF did not end up at the rumoured 1200. Also great news for Worms. What a shame I only have a balance of 400 points, hmm.

I thought Battlefield 1943 was coming out this week. What a lame surprise.

Warrengonline: Capcom Unity's twitter said MvC2's release in June was a rumour, and that they're looking at end of July. twitter.com/.../2351164799

So I guess no BF1943 in June... I'm sick of game companies making promises they can't keep!

No Marvel vs Capcom 2? Big Surf Island possibly then. But I'll hold the brakes until Wed, just in case something 'else' pops up.

Yeh Split Second!!! Glad to hear it won, love the trailer on Xbox Live. Mass Effect 2: What if you save Wrex? One can only wonder what is going to happen.

@K04 Passat

I second that on Rage of the Dragons. (And Shock Troopers - though it is not a fighting game.)

i see that Microsoft has forgotten about 'Kodu' - there isn't any news on it at all.

i know it's a community title, but there has been zero news on it lately.

and i thought it was coming out tomorrow :?

One more thing, if anyone from SNKP is reading this... Could we get an option for the arranged soundtrack, in future games? Mark of the Wolves had great music, in the Dreamcast version. It's sorely missed, in the XBLA port.

Also, any other SNK fighters coming to XBLA? Could really go for some Rage of the Dragons, with online play.

Thank you for the KOF 98 UM pricing, whoever did that. I'll be online playing it, just as soon as I get off work, Wednesday morning.
