David Edery talks XBLA and its future


Longtime X3F reader, LunarDuality has posted an interview (also posted at XBLArcade) with David Edery, Worldwide Games Portfolio Planner for Xbox Live Arcade. The interview (part one in a series) focuses on the recent string of Live Arcade titles and the future of XBLA. Readers will recall that Live Arcade only recently began to deliver on the promise of a new game every week. Edery notes that this trend is likely to continue, with the double releases occurring "more often than not." He admits that it's possible we might see the occasional week with no release, though that possibility is "very remote." Edery also takes time to answer questions about Microsoft's portfolio strategy, the possibility of Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged Vol. 2, casual vs. hardcore, and many other topics.
