Can't say I'm too impressed with either of today's games. The mini golf is far too silly for my liking.

[Yoshimax]

Yer it's a bit **** 'innit !

[SteJay]

Where the hell is Catan. I mean really. Where is it....

It's now due in May according to the official site.

bought golf yesterday, the full game is better than the demo, only had one go so far so need to play more over the weekend, think will be fun with other players involved rather than the stupid cpu players..

come on, i want some ntsc player games

[merf]

i came home pissed last night and decided to buy the golf after playing only one hole.

much like many things that happen under the influence my recollection of it today is that its not quite as attractive as I thought it was last and I'm sure when i have another look at it in the cold light of day i may regret my actions.

I'm holding back on starting a thread for the game until I've had another look.

I bought the golf game also, quite like it, takes about 15 minutes to do a round of 18 holes on your own. Played first couple of courses and was about 6 over par for each course, it's quite tough at first, leaderboards are full of people on -67 and the like already be up for some Live games tomorrow/the weekend. Will add you to me friends list.

[RuBiQ]

theres a cheat/glitch tho mr hollis for the people with -67, believe me they aint good on the game just exploiting the bugs in the game. if u wanted to follow suit the glitch is explained on the A360points forums section for the game

Is there any more news on Ikaruga for the arcade?

I can't help but find XBox Live arcade to be extremely poor - other than 2 exceptional stand outs (Geo Wars & Castlevania) there isn't a single other thing to peak my interest :/

[Kubrick]

Have you played Jetpac? A Geo Wars man should like it...

Haven't played Jetpac since my days as a nipper - will investigate for sure

[Yoshimax]

Also Mutant Storm if you liked Geo Wars !

You know you can try 'em for free Geoff ?

[MikeRox]

It's a 3D Pinball simulator and a Lemmings style action/puzzler this week on XBLA. Lost the link to the news but it was posted on Kotaku.

[Jebus]

Also on majornelson.com

Double header, 800 points each.

Eets Chowdown looks interesting, so does Pinball to be honest, excellent that we have trials to download first

[Brats]

I'm really loving Eets Chowdown. The puzzle mode is lovely for late night, relaxed gaming and the other mode gets manic after a while.

Looks gorgeous in HD too.

[Jebus]

The problem with Eets Chowdown is that you can (at any time) hit start, choose solve puzzle, then hit right trigger and complete the level.

I find that a bit wierd to be honest...but other than that, I love it So nice to look at, fun and full of character

Pinball...meh.
