Having only had my 360 for a week or so I'm loving the retro games on XBL, but after buying OXM and having a trawl on the tinterweb I can honestly say I am wetting myself at the prospect of playing imho the greatest game I've ever played.....Speedball 2 - on XBL!! :D

Sorry if this has been posted before but Forum Search is no worky for me :(

Anyway sometime in August its supposed to be out 400-800MP apparently...

XBLA is the perfect platform for retro arcade titles. They should really licence the Amiga games and get Xenon 2, Chaos Engine, Nebulus and all that shabangle up there. Hired Guns would work well as 4-player co-op, to a degree.
 
Chaos Engine would be amazing, that has to happen.


I wish they'd make deathrow 2 as well, the first one was a fresh addition to the extreme sports genre and if they just polished it up and fixed the flaws of the first it would make an excelltn online game. Who made it? are they still around?

funny cos SWOS was meant to be out in August aswell but ive seen the releases for August and neither SWOS or Speedball 2 were listed
As far as I know and have read up till know, SWOS will be out the 29th.

Edit - Says confirmed on Wikipedia

Also found the official page on Xbox.com but no mention of a date, confirmation of 800 points though.

On the original topic, cant wait for Speedball II as well - will definitely be buying that.
