This week on XBLA, we have hordes of angry aliens, and an excellent competitive puzzle game in the form of Alien Breed Evolution Episode 1, and Puzzlegeddon.
Long time gamers might remember the critically acclaimed 1991 Amiga game Alien Breed. This week, Alien Breed Evolution Episode 1 hits the XBLA bringing with it updated graphics, online co-op, and leaderboard support. The game puts you up against hordes of aliens as you fight your way through five levels of a rather large space station. Alien Breed Evolution Episode 1 seems like a decent action game, worthy of the 800 Mircosoft Point price tag.
This week’s other release is Puzzlegeddon, a unique puzzler first released for the PC back in 2008. Like most puzzle games, you have to clear blocks of the same color. Unlike most puzzle games, clearing blocks earns you points toward special abilities that can be used to defeat your opponents. You can attack, defend, disable your opponent, or boost your own abilities. With solid gameplay, awesome abilities, and six player online multiplayer, puzzle game fans should definitely take a look at Puzzlegeddon. Clocking in at 800 Microsoft Points, this game will provide hours of entertainment for puzzle game fans.
