E3 2007: Sierra Announce 3 XBLA Titles
Game developer Sierra showers some love in the form of three games on Xbox Live Arcade.
At E3 2007, game developer Sierra announced three sparkling new titles for Xbox Live Arcade that go something like this:
Switchball
Switchball tasks gamers with guiding a ball through a twisting course suspended in midair. The ball's properties will constantly change, forcing gamers to change their strategy on the fly. The ball will appear as a standard Marbleball, a light Airball, an electrically-charged Powerball, and as the dense Metalball. Switchball is already available for PC and comes to XBLA this summer.
Commanders: Attack!
Commanders: Attack! sports a '30s art deco look, but is surprisingly nothing like BioShock. A turn-based strategy game, Commanders features 15 single-player missions as well as four-player online battles. Commanders: Attack! arrives this fall for PC and XBLA.
Battlestar Galactica
Based on the mega-popular Sci-Fi Channel TV series, Battlestar Galactica is a top-down action game that pays homage to its roots. Gamers can enjoy single-player missions based on episodes of the TV series or take the battle online against up to seven other people. Online battles feature four-on-four conflicts between human and Cylon ships. Look for Battlestar on PC and XBLA this fall.
More from News AnalysisNash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
