XBLA version of Plants v. Zombies has co-op and vs. modes photo

In the grand pantheon of games to fall back on when you're waiting at a bus stop or just simply bored at home, Plants vs. Zombies is probably the best there is. Hell, it's probably one of the best games out there in terms of fun, period. That's why we're so psyched for Plants vs. Zombies to come to Xbox Live Arcade, and now we're double-dog-dare-you psyched because there's going to be co-op and a versus mode.

Xbox360Achievements leaked the list of Achievements for the not-truly-announced-but-announced 360 version of the game, and two of them give away details on exclusive features to the 360. The first is getting an Achievement for "winning with a friend in co-op Wall-Nut Bowling," which obviously lets us know the game will have co-op. The second is one for "a 5 game winning streak in VS. mode," which lets us know about the versus mode.

We're most likely going to get an official announcement on the XBLA version of the game on Aug. 2, but until then you're just going to have to find your own damn "wall-nuts" if you want to go bowling with your friends.

So the teaser was for the XBLA version and not PvZ 2?

I think we might be hearing about both on Aug. 2. A sort of "look at all the PvZ things we have" announcement.

Man seems like Xbox has the cool arcade/indie scene on lockdown. Does anyone know if you need live to download acade titles.

"because there's going to be co-op and a verse mode"

Isn't that supposed to be versus mode? unless it's a poetry mode

I hope the vs mode is actually Plants VS Zombies and not a score or time attack.

Not sure how the logistic would work, but make it happen.

"co-op Wall-Nut Bowling"
Wall-Nut is my least favorite game type....hope there are more co-op modes along with it, thought Wall-Nut bowling is the only one that really makes sense

I am quite disappointed that it isn't a PvZ 2. I won't be buying this since I own the first one on my PC.
