This Wednesday: Samurai Showdown II, Rocket Bowl, Shotest Shogi hit XBLA [update]
It's another triple-threat (erm, make that treat) this week for Xbox Live Arcade connoisseurs. Debuting after the Virtual Console version, the classic Neo-Geo fighter, Samurai Shodown II, arrives at
400 ($5)
[800
($10)] and should be worth all 32 quarters if it's a carbon copy of the arcade / ridiculously expensive home version.
Joining the sword-clashing samurai are Rocket Bowl, D3Publisher's absurd – yet interesting – take on bowling, and Shotest (not Shortest) Shogi, a prim-and-proper multiplayer version of the classic Japanese table game from Microsoft. They're both hitting at 800
($10) each.
Also prepped to pop up in the Marketplace are 1200 new puzzles for Buku Sudoku (200
/ $2.50) and the second set of expansion levels for N+ (200
/ $2.50).
[Update: "Starting on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 Xbox Live members will have the opportunity to download Samurai Showdown II for 800
. The game was previously listed incorrectly at 400
, and we apologize for the error," reads an Xbox Press media alert.]
