Solitaire XBLA this week

Microsoft has named Soltrio Solitaire as the title shuffling onto Xbox Live Arcade this week, and at 800 Microsoft points (£6.80) we reckon we'll stick with the plain old Windows version (which is free).

But if you absolutely must hand over your cash you'll be rewarded with a deck customisation system and a main game that has you travelling around a map, beating down opponents with your card-matching skills.

Slightly more exciting is the co-operative mode which has two players working together by passing cards between each other reaching for that ever-enticing high score.

Soltrio Solitaire will be available for purchase on XBLA this Wednesday morning. Hold us back.

Is M$ serious, why would anybody waste $10 on some stupid solitaire game. I already have solitaire on my PC, my iPod, and I can play it in real life. Why would I want it for my Xbox 360?
