It’s that time of the week again folks! Microsoft has released their latest batch of post-Christmas goodies for XBLA. Lets see what they’ve released for us yeah?

Arkadian Warriors: Picture Pack #1 - 80c

Bomberman Live: Bomb Up Pack 3 - 250c

Contra: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Frogger: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Gyruss: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Scramble: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Spongebob Underpants: Trial - Free/ Full - 800c

Sensible World Soccer: Trial - Free/ Full - 800c

Tempest: Trial - Free/ Full - 800c

Time Pilot: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Track & Field: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Undertow: Picture Pack #1 - 80c

Yie Ar Kung Fu: Konami Classic Picture Pack - 200c

Of all the new content I think that Sensible world soccer was the most worth playing. The player are a bit on the small side and the movement can be a bit twitchy - but overall its a fun little soccer game.  Spongebob Underpants was…well…a Spongebob game (yes, I actually played it). The controls are floaty, the sound effects and voiceovers are grating and the graphics are mediocre at best.

So in other words, its a Spongebob Game. Heh.

But I do have to say that I hope the Konami Pic Pack that’s being pushed is up for the last week. Though it will probably be up for at least one more. I just think its annoying that old things are kept up either for filler or to shove down peoples throats for as long as possible. Anyways.

So that about it. We’ll get back to you for next week’s additions.

Durka!

    Yay. Spongebob. I know it’s time to appease the little ones at Christmas, but how about anything the older gamers would like?
