Free Game Download for Xbox 360 (This wednesday, North America only)

I'm usually not one for paying for digital content but a freebie is a freebie. On top of that it actually looks like a cool game. Here's the info from the
www.Xbox.com
website:
Aegis Wing is a side-scrolling space combat game reminiscent of classic eighties arcade hits. It features alien-busting action, slick graphics, an orchestral soundtrack, and devastating power-ups.
Also included is a unique cooperative mode of play in which up to three additional players can "attach" to the leader's ship and become independent, 360-degree gun turrets.
* Old-school genre: Get ready for an action-retro 2-D sci-fi side scrolling shooter, similar to Gradius or Defender.
* Multiplayer gameplay: Up to four players can compete on the same console or on Xbox LIVE®. Attach to each other, and super weapon powers grow as more players attach. After attaching, there's one pilot and each rider rotates fire via a 360-degree gun turret.
* Super weapons: Wield four super weapons, including the Hades Beam (kills everything in it's path), the Gordon Burst (EMP pulse that kills all bullets and short circuits enemies), the Arcus Missile (heat-seeking missiles), and Lambda Shield (allows bullets to be deflected and used against the enemies).

MS?! Free game?! GIVING AWAY?! Geez, that's something you don't see every day.
That's great news though. I'm glad they're doing it.

Actually this is the fourth or fifth freebie game so far. Nice free marketing if these guys ever start developing full-time. Good reviews for this game will keep people's eyes on them and encourage future projects, which if I'm not mistaken was a part of the XNA function from the get-go.

I gotta say..... Aegis Wing is a blast!
A great side-scrolling shump worthy of a full game. It clearly takes elements from classics such as Gradius, Life Force and more.
I played 4 player multi-player mode with some of my PSU buddies and we had a blast. If you own a 360, I highly suggest you download this game.

Finally got a chance to play this game. Was really fun. I didn't like how the back ground rotates from time to time. Made me want to barf.

I was going to add this game to the database, I just wanted to make sure it was considered a legitimate game (since it's just a download).

Not able to be added. Community decision to not include in the database.

I'm not sure where we are in terms of opening that can of worms yet. There has been talk of allowing digital downloads as collectable games in the past but I think it's been shelved for the time being.
Maybe one of the Admins will pipe in and give more details.
