Garou, Droplitz hit Xbox LIVE Arcade this week photo

So it appears as if Japanese players won't be getting all of the SNK love -- Garou: Mark of the Wolves will be coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade this Wednesday for 800 MS Points. Fans of Fatal Fury and 2D fighters should get all worked up at the game's release, which will support the Internets for online fighting and leadboards.

Atlus' puzzler, Droplitz, will also be available this Wednesday for 800 MS Points. The official Xbox.com page indicates that it's "infinitely accessible, instantly addictive," has "four unique game modes," feaures "endless replayability," and "high scores." High scores, guys!

Will this have an online vs mode? Cuz if not, there would be no point for me to get this since I already have it on Dreamcast.

Endless replay value is more based on the player.

s0lesurvivor - Probably not. No SNK arcade games have ever been announced for PSN. You did get KOF '99 PS1 version though >_>

stafax - yes!

Ok, that's good news that it has online. Still undecided if I really want this though. I've already decided that I will get SF2 HD Remix since it's the deal of the week, but I'm not really up on my heels to buy another fighting game so soon.

I can confirm Droplitz is actually quite addictive. 800 MS points for a new Hexic.. tempting.

Damn, that came out of nowhere. I thought we'd be waiting on an US announcement before we saw the game.
