After what seemed like an eternity of less than desirable Xbox Live Arcade releases (or lack thereof), we are finally getting a solid game for next week. Group Product Manager for Xbox 360 and Live, Aaron Greenberg, confirmed with 1UP that Alien Hominid HD will be up for grabs very soon:
We are excited to bring Alien Hominid out next week; we are excited to make up for lost time.
March looks very strong from a release standpoint. Expect a storm of new releases, we are going to deliver and make up for February.
Greenberg also talked about how quality control and certification were part of the reason why there have been so many inconsistent XBLA releases lately.
We already know that Microsoft has the potential to provide us with stellar Live Arcade games. But until they do just that, gamers will most likely opt to spend their money on Nintendo or Sony’s digitally distributed games instead.
