Two very different games are heading to Xbox Live Arcade this week: Rocky & Bullwinkle, a casual concoction of "micro games," and Battlezone, an updated version of Atari's classic 1980 arcade tank game.
Based on the cartoon series of the 1960s, "Rocky and Bullwinkle" on Xbox Live Arcade is a party experience with more than 100 micro games. Eight playable characters from Frostbite Falls are in the game, including Rocky, Bullwinkle, Boris, Natasha, Dudley Do-Right and more. "Rocky and Bullwinkle" features five difficulty settings (we're guessing really easy through mildly easy), as well as support for up to 12 players in local mode.
Battlezone adds new multiplayer modes for up to two players both locally and over Xbox Live, including Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag. Players will also be able to use the Xbox Live Vision camera to challenge opponents on the battle field, Microsoft said. New special effects for weapon firing, impacts and explosions have also been worked into the XBLA version.
