R type dimensions is hardly a reskinned r type and as someone pointed out it took 2 years to make.

[Charlie]

I don't think of R-Type when I think of Microsoft's dodgy pricings. I think R-Type's pretty good value.

[vanpeebles]

Isn't it R-Type 1 and 2 together plus co-op?

[Charlie]

It is, yeah.

[FreelancePolice]

Do microsoft take 70%? I've heard stories of enormous amounts for multiple submissions which makes iterative patches and tweaks (which valve often do) very difficult.

Is xbox.com working? Just says "page unavailable" for me whenever I try to do anything...

[Paulos G]

I was getting that a lot yesterday. Seems alright at the moment though.

[Charlie]

Working fine right now for me too.

[Paulos G]

Ya know, I was just thinking that what's missing from XBLA is a decent over-the-top co-op combat game featuring undead ninjas. Thank goodness Namco Bandai have just announced Invincible Tiger: The Legend of Han Tao!

[toythatkills]

The big announcement today is Wallace and Gromit from Telltale though.

Or it would be, if it wasn't going to cost 800points for every three-hour episode

(price or length as yet unconfirmed, but Telltale's history dictates that the above are facts)

[Paulos G]

PAH! Undead Ninjas is clearly bigger and better news than Grollace and Womit!! UNDEAD NINJAS!!!!

[ChrisF]

I really wish I could get past 53% of the halo wars demo download

Had no Net for 2 weeks and R-Type turns up, DL'ing now hopefully it will demand my pennies!

The update of doom demanded 4 attempts btw, but no death yet

It depends if you're self-publishing. It's not as dry-cut as that.

[ChrisF]

Dunno why, but I bought Puzzle Arcade last night. Anyone expecting cheap, quick, GP's need not apply
