Him and his wife also live with his parents.

Lets all face it, Marwans world is different from ours, so it's no wonder he likes shitty games and hates good ones.

Fucking bastards on Street Fighter. I suck but when I finally do end up getting a win I get dropped. :( WHORES!

....jesus, kid me would RAPE present me at this game.

Haha.. I always wondered if I played the kid me at different games who would win. I really don't know with a lot of games. Kid me would probably distroy me at Bomberman, I'm guessing. I would make kid me's head explode at Tetris Attack, though.

Also, the week begins on Sunday and ends on Saturday. This is only because I work Sunday-Thursday, not because of what those paper things you hang say.

Ok, I got all but one, and now I'm going to bed. I'll get the other one tomorrow.

Namco 4 Life

I got Pac-man. Only the trial version though. I'm glad I did. I'm sick of it already. I was never a huge fan of the game.

Just wait for Ms. Pac-Man. Its FAR superior.

I would kill for Snow Bros. to come to XBLA...

I would have wished for a gun.

Pac-Man just doesn't do it for me anymore...two weeks until the next game that I even remotely care about

So, was there ever official confirmation of what game comes out next week?

XBL Arcade release dates revealed?


Source: The official Web site for the Xbox 360 wing of Official Xbox Magazine.

The official story: See below.

What we heard: To next-gen gamers, "Humpday" is now more than just the middle of the work week and Lost reruns. Wednesdays are the days new Xbox Live Arcade games are released as part of the very appropriately titled Xbox Live Arcade Wednesdays program, which kicked off with Frogger on July 12. Microsoft announced the schedule for the programs first five weeks, which comes to a conclusion this week.

Fans of old-school classics and indie games have been kept in suspense about what's on tap after this Wednesday, but a report from the UK Web site for Xbox 360 - The Official Xbox Magazine claims to know the XBLA release schedule through the first week of September.

Following the previously announced Pac-Man this week, OXM expects Texas Hold 'Em on August 16, Time Pilot on August 23, Scramble on August 30, and Lumines Live! on September 6. The schedule did not mention any prices for any of the games.

Cross-checking the release dates with the respective games' Web sites on Xbox.com reveals nothing, as there are no listings for Time Pilot or Scramble and no clear release dates for the other games (except for Lumines Live! which shows an incorrect July 2006 date).

GameSpot contacted Microsoft directly to get the lowdown and got this response: "We have yet to announce the upcoming release schedule, and that is all just rumors and speculation." The rep then went on to say that a correct schedule would be released in the coming weeks.

Bogus or not bogus?: Straight from Microsoft's mouth...Bogus. Though the Pac-Man part is spot on.

Edit: Allow me to clarify. Moving forward, when we release an Arcade title...it will happen on a Wednesday. The five-title 'Arcade Wednesday' kick off promotion ends today. That said, we have not made any announcements or specific dates for previously announced Xbox Live Arcade titles. More titles are coming we just have not said exactly when.
