Yesterday, we reported on the development of Eternity's Child, a 2D side-scroller with a unique aesthetic. The games official website claims that the game is headed to Xbox Live Arcade "this year" and its creator, Luc Bernard, told GTR's Godfree that it was on its way to becoming official. We decided to hit up Worldwide Xbox Live Arcade Games Portfolio Manager, Ross Erickson, and get his response. Erickson told us that he "can't comment on that right now." Those familiar with PR speak will instantly focus on the last two words in that statement: "right now." Typically, false rumors are flatly denied, whereas "no comment" could go either way. We know that Ross likes good games, and we wouldn't be surprised if Eternity's Child hits the arcade so long as it passes muster.

Is there a site that has a list of upcoming XBLA games? I would be interested to see what this years line up looks like so far. I hope they release more original games instead of just porting old arcade hits.

I'm currently working on a list of Games of 2007 that I'll be releasing with screenshots/video/information/etc for this weekend. You can preview it here, but don't spread the word on it just yet. http://ilovexbla.com/features/gamesof2007.html
Otherwise you can check Wikipedia, although keep in mind that some of those games like Killer Instinct are fan boy dreams right now and nothing more.
