What’s it going to be on XBLA this week, an alien onslaught or a puzzle apocalypse? The choice is yours, whether it be Tecmo’s Puzzlegeddon or Team17’s Alien Breed Evolution. Either game will set you back 800 Microsoft Space Bucks (ten earth dollars), so it boils down to preference. Frankly, we’ve always been fans of mowing down waves of alien scum, but destroying your friends via brightly colored blocks has its charms too. Check out the latest XBLA in Brief and see which one speaks to you.

If you’ve played any of the recent Call of Duty games — and chances are good that you have — then you’ll be right at home with Call of Duty Classic, the latest release on Xbox Live Arcade. Of course, there’s also a good chance that you’re still knee-deep in Modern Warfare 2. So, the question you have to ask is how much do you want to take in some gaming history? If that desire is equal to or greater than $15 (1200), then go right ahead.

It would appear that Microsoft and Electronic Arts are onto our annual turkey-eating, football-watching ritual, as Madden NFL Arcade has landed on Xbox Live Arcade just in time for Thanksgiving. If you’ve been looking for a faster, simpler game of football, Madden NFL Arcade just might be the thing for you. Assuming you can stomach the 1200 ($15) price tag, of course. Watch the latest episode of XBLA in Brief to see what the game is all about.

This week brings two casual games to Xbox Live Arcade. For puzzle fans, we have Gyromancer (1200, $15), an RPG take on PopCap’s Bejeweled Twist. For those who prefer something a little more manic, there’s Diner Dash (800, $10), which tasks players with running a restaurant and keeping customers happy. If you’ve ever dealt with real customers before, you’ll know that keeping them happy is harder than it sounds.
See both games in the latest episode of XBLA in Brief.

There are three games up for grabs on XBLA this week, and all of them offer something different. Encleverment Experiment (800, $10) seeks to test your brain power as well as the brain power of your friends (or random strangers on Xbox Live). Meanwhile NBA Unrivaled (1200, $15) brings arcade basketball with massive dunks (and odd character animations). Finally, 0D Beat Drop (800, $10) … drops some rhythm-infused puzzle action onto XBLA. Watch the latest XBLA in Brief and see if any of them are up your alley.

This week’s episode of XBLA in Brief will likely seem a bit familiar. The reason for that is because the trial version of the final three Wallace & Gromit episodes is exactly the same as the trial version for the first episode. Suffice it to say that you won’t see anything new if you’ve already tried the first episode. For the rest of you, watch the latest XBLA in Brief and see if the charm of Wallace & Gromit appeals to you.

Once again, a new week has brought two drastically different titles to Xbox Live Arcade. Inferno Pool allows gamers to play a fast, frenetic round of multiplayer pool (all in what appears to be a bar in Silent Hill). On the other side of the coin, we have Rainbow Islands: Towering Adventure, which has players killing adorable enemies with rainbows. Both are available for 800 ($10) and you can see what they’re all about in this week’s XBLA in Brief. Enjoy.

Up for offer on Xbox Live Arcade today are two diametrically opposite titles. Tower Bloxx Deluxe is a puzzle game that requires a grand total of one button to play, while Panzer General: Allied Assault is a strategy / card / board game with more rules than you can shake several sticks at. Depending on your mood, present company or your feelings toward the construction industry, either game might appeal to you. As such, they are both priced equally at 800 ($10). Watch the latest episode of XBLA in Brief to find out if either one is for you.

We’ve got two click-em-ups up for grabs this week. One — Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space — is a buddy comedy fueled by crime, conversation and jokes, while the other — Axel & Pixel — is a puzzle solving affair rendered with bright colors and quirky animation. We’re not sure what we did to deserve two point-and-click adventure games this week but, frankly, we’re not going to look a gift horse in the mouth, especially considering these aren’t gifts at all.
No, they cost real money. 1600 in the case of Sam & Max, and 800 for Axel & Pixel.
