cokecan · 17 Dec 2007 at 18:31

i thought swos was due out on the 19th?

nichorob · 17 Dec 2007 at 18:33

There not on there? You got me excited then.

Kainz · 17 Dec 2007 at 18:36

Strange. Soz chaps, I did see it there! I clicked on SWOS but got an error x308 xxx code on the download page and then it wasn't there. Got so excited I came here to post lol

Got me going as well. As soon as i read this i was off to buy SWOS.

Smit · 17 Dec 2007 at 18:45

damn, I'm in Finland going to miss it!

Sensible Soccer is the one game I have been saving my points for

They're available on PartnerNet

Already moaned about this on another forum.

But Tempest... so what was SG all about then Jeff? You knew what we wanted and you gave us a game close to Tempest but made it so we couldn't actually see what we were playing. You now give us what we wanted. So I'm 400 points down on a game I only played once and you want me to buy this?

Well my loss I guess...

Yeh but as the levels go on the game gets more and more crowded with colours. You only get the beginning levels in the demo.

Equally happy that Tempest is being released, shame it's not 2000 but nevermind

zomg you broke NDA, Microsoft's ninja squad will be onto you!

I'm looking forward to trying out Tempest. It's been utterly ages since I played that game. Horribly addictive and gets so hard :/

Jeff's got nowt to do with Tempest on XBLA.

I think his complaints were with Space Giraffe.

Tobes · 17 Dec 2007 at 21:18

Actually I had it in my head that Jeff was doing the remake for XBLA. I just assumed this because he did Tempest 2000. But he's obvs not so I guess my rant has just been... un ranted

Jeff will NEVER do a remake - he hates them. Mind you, he hates anything to do with gaming of late!
