Title: Thank you XBL arcade! (Cyberball 2072)
Post by: captain_nintendo on September 10, 2007, 10:13:13 AM
Xbox Live Arcade has made me a very happy person.

Recently, they added "Cyberball 2072" to the list of arcade games. This is one of my favorite all time arcade games!

I played several games this weekend, getting the feel for the game again, and I already have the 3rd highest score on Xbox live. I think by the end of the week, I should be listed in the top spot. ;)

Anybody else pick this game up? I'd like to play coop online to get the achievements.

I just found out that there is no head to head match ups for this arcade title. Sad, because this is where the game really shines. At least it was only 400 points to pick the game up.

I remember Cyberball 2072. Didn't they already make it in a compilation somewhere though?

Even so, for 400 points that still a good deal.

It was on the Atari compilation for the Xbox. This port "feels" much more tru to form.

:o  I actually liked Cyberball 2072. There's much worse crappola to be had on one's hard drive, imo.

Personally, I'm looking forward to Speedball 2. It's been announced for XBLA but no release date yet.

I knew Cyberball is Capt's favorite arcade game that why I added the  :P at the end. I don't think I ever played it at the arcade. I know Rick and I tried the Genesis or NES version and it wasn't so good.
