Five XBLA Games To Get Retroactively Avatarded

The New Xbox Experience is almost here, meaning those lovable, Rare-designed Avatars that Microsoft has squeezed into the interface — and games like Scene It? Box Office Smash — will be plaguing your Xbox 360 before you know it. Microsoft and Xbox Live Arcade developers are adding retroactive support for Avatars in a handful of games, with UNO, Bomberman Live, Hardwood Hearts, Hardwood Spades and Small Arms getting updated with the new feature on day one.

Bomberman Live Gets Update, Bunnies

As a long-time fan of the Bomberman franchise as well as one with a deep obsession for all things bunny related (don’t ask), it is with great pleasure I bring you the announcement of Bomb-Up Pack 1 for Hudson’s Bomberman Live for Xbox Live Arcade. The add-on, which weighs in at a modest 350 Microsoft Points, will feature two new environments (casino and zeppelin), a new game mode called Frag which allows you to set the number of enemies that need to be offed in order to win a match, as well as ten new characters. Among the new characters…Little Bomby Foo Foo. A bunny. With bombs. Y’all need to give me a minute here. Go read a press release or something.
