A couple good titles coming up. Loving the animation and artwork of Skull girls

Very TWEWY in style

Never heard of that war of the worlds xbla game before, sounds very promising.

According to Neogaf, Popcap games are on sale tomorrow. So there maybe some interesting stuff there, I don't have Peggle or PvZ (well, on Xbox I should say).

PopCap Games Brings Bejeweled® 3 to Video Game Platforms Later This Year
Latest Adaptations in Famed Bejeweled Franchise Coming in Q4 2011 to Nintendo DS®, PlayStation® 3, PSN, Xbox 360® and Xbox LIVE® Arcade

PopCap Games, the worldwide leader in casual games, today announced plans to bring five new adaptations of its famed Bejeweled® 3 franchise to the Nintendo DS®, PlayStation® 3, PSN, Xbox 360®, and Xbox LIVE® Arcade. This move marks the first time a Bejeweled title will appear on all the top video game platforms simultaneously. The games are scheduled to ship in Q4 2011 in both North America and Europe.

"Critics agree that Bejeweled 3 raised the standard for match-3 games to new heights," said Ed Allard, studio head at PopCap Games. "This holiday, we're bringing that experience to PlayStation 3, PSN, Xbox 360, Xbox LIVE, and Nintendo DS gamers with adaptations that look great and play even better on each platform."

Originally launched in the spring of 2000, Bejeweled has become one of the top 10 video game franchises in history. More than half a billion people worldwide have played the game, and over 50 million units have been sold across 17 platforms from iPhone to Xbox and even airline seatbacks. An estimated 8 billion hours have been spent playing Bejeweled, and the game continues to sell at the rate of one copy every 4.3 seconds.

With twice the game modes of its predecessor as well as eight mini-games and a complete revision of sound and graphics, Bejeweled 3 is a quantum leap forward in the match-3 category pioneered by the original Bejeweled.

Trenched is getting some decent reviews so far: http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360 ... ic-reviews

Looking forward to Trenched tomorrow! :mrgreen:

Think I'm going for Peggle, possibly the expansion, PvZ and Bejeweled Blitz (it would be rude not to purchase this).

strawberry float you Popcap.

Just found something to make Hugo happy.

UTV Ignition Games today announced at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), that Quarrel will launch on iOS platforms this summer, and then march onward to home console downloadable platforms later in 2011. First introduced to the press by developer Denki with a sneak peek in 2010, Quarrel is a fresh and original take on the classic word game format. Combining gameplay elements similar to the likes of Scrabble, Jumble and Risk, strategy is key to becoming the vocabulary victor in order to take over the opposition's territories and achieve world domination!

In Quarrel, players control territories filled with various troops - including a caveman, ninja, pirate, G.I, robot, alien, and more - who they must use in battle to create high-scoring words out of an eight-letter anagram. The word they create can only be as many letters as the number of troops the player has in his army (i.e. if the player has five cavemen, ninjas, etc, then the word can be five letters long). The key to victory is simple. Whomever's word scores more points wins the battle and takes control of the land. The person who wins the most battles, achieves domination of the entire map and wins the game.

Quarrel features multiple game modes such as Quick Match and Showdown that provide for countless hours of wordplay fun. Prepare to challenge tricky A.I. opponents on 12 different maps - each specific to the size of the match and number of quarrellers- that take them acrossfour magical worlds. In each world, the player will face off against humorous and unforgettable characters - each with different skills, word IQ and ways of playing - that will keep them coming back for more.

Esteemed Scottish developer Denki is suitably proud to finally unleash their addictive creation upon the masses. "Quarrel is a deceptive beast--sure it's a classy word game but there's an equally suave strategic soul, a depth of personality that unfolds the more you play against the disarmingly human A.I. opponents," explains Creative Director Gary Penn (Grand Theft Auto, Crackdown) "Its distinctively endearing style, and charm makes it unique. Whether you play word games or not, it's packed with moments you have to share."

Quarrel will be available for download on iOS platforms summer 2011, with availability on additional platforms to be announced at a later date.

AWESOME!

I thought we'd never see Quarrel again.

Trenched 'delayed':

For those asking about Trenched, its European release is delayed. No new release date has been set, but it'll be "as soon as possible". Official line on Trenched's delay is, "Unexpected challenges with distribution in some European regions". Shouldn't take long!

Trenched is already up in the A-Z section, just no option to purchase yet so I wouldn't imagine it'll take long.

The DX upgrade for Sonic Adventure has also been reduced from 400 to 240 points.

Got PvZ, Bejeweled, Peggle and Peggle nights.

Speaking of XBLA titles, ilomilo is fantastic. Why have I waited so long to play this?

Didn't realise Diner Dash had be taken off along with Dream Chronicles. Quite enjoyed the trial to Diner Dash.

All I want to do is play Trenched

It'll tell you it's not available in your region.

Still no Trenched
