Hardwood Xbox Live Arcade games released

By Tor Thorsen, GameSpotPosted Dec 9, 2005 1:54 pm PT

Hardwood Backgammon, Hardwood Hearts, and Hardwood Spades are now available for $5 a pop.

Thursday saw the release of three new Xbox Live Arcade games for the Xbox 360. Hardwood Backgammon, Hardwood Hearts, and Hardwood Spades are now available via the Xbox Live Marketplace. Each costs 400 Xbox Live Marketplace points, which converts to around $5 in real-world money, and requires a hard-drive-enabled 360 console to play.

The release of the Hardwood tabletop trio means that only three more of the initial "launch window" Xbox Live Arcade games remain unavailable: Marble Blast Ultra, Robotron: 2084, and Wik: Fable of Souls. All are scheduled to be released sometime this month.

    Not true about 360/PC... Final Fantasy will allow PC/PS2/360 connectivity.

    I wonder if you'll be playing people who just have an xbl account and a '360 or if you'll be playing PC users. Anyone know?

    Episodic content from big publishers would make me buy one if nothing else will. That will be the damn future right there.

    Here's hoping a Hold'Em game comes out over Live Arcade... and yeah, while I'm having fun with GW:RE, Joust, Smash TV, and Gauntlet... I'm getting anxious for Marble Blast which was gonna be the first game I purchased through Live Arcade.... Wik's pretty cool too, I've played it before.
